@GottaLaff @willbunch I recently came across the Benny Johnson interview of #mikedavis. It's so extreme that I first thought it was parody. It's real. It's shocking. Trump wants to name Davis acting AG on day one, bypassing Senate confirmation. He could serve for 4 months(correct me if I am wrong) without confirmation. Imagine what those 4 months, and beyond, would look like.

And [edit] if you say it couldn't happen because the American people have too much sense, it happened once and nothing has changed to prevent it.

It was a hypothetical; I've edited it to make that clearer.

@hugh @Barbramon1 @GottaLaff @willbunch Thanks for that. 👍 I was pretty sure none of the above-named people would have said it. 😏
