Trump: ‘I don’t really blame’ Cornyn for holding up Blanche confirmation

Trump says 'you will never get anybody like' Todd Blanche for attorney general

Republicans online are raging at two turncoat red-state Senators who are obstructing the confirmation of Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to take on the role permanently after just a few years ago endorsing and voting for former President Joe Biden's pick for the same position.

But Trump’s comments Friday are only worsening tensions with the two senators.

However, Senators John Cornyn from Texas and North Carolina's Thom Tillis, whose terms both expire in January are withholding their support over the status of a controversial fund to compensate Trump allies.
