re: #185 KGxvi
There’s also the very real point that Haspel might have been the best we could get from Trump. That his next appointment would have been someone like John Yoo or Dick Cheney.
Isn’t that how we ended up with Gorsuch on the bench, “The next nominee could be worse”? Let him nominate someone worse and vote them down. If the GOP struggled to get votes to Haspel, how many votes would they get for somebody “worse”?
