He has the potential to go down as one of the Greatest Attorney Generals of All Time. However, John Cornyn, of Texas, and Thom Tillis, of North Carolina, both of whom I refused to Endorse, and whose political careers have been ended by my action, are refusing to vote for this Great Nominee, who will remain, in any event, as Acting,\u201d the president wrote on Truth Social. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have no objection to temporarily withdrawing Todd\u2019s name, if they do not do the right thing, and putting him back after Cornyn and Tillis are out of office,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Blanche used to be Trump\u2019s personal attorney and represented him in the so-called \u201chush money\u201d trial that led to the president being criminally convicted of falsifying business documents to cover up a sex scandal with porn star Stormy Daniels.<\/p>\n<p>But his relationship with Trump has sparked questions about his ability to lead the department independently, particularly after he admitted during his confirmation hearings that the White House was essentially running things.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=4582\">Trump Unveils His Latest Unfinished Gaudy Vanity Project<\/a><\/p>\n<p>He has also faced mounting controversy over his stewardship of the Department\u2019s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files. <\/p>\n<p>Survivors who met with him this week accused Blanche of treating them dismissively, with several saying he cut them off and showed little interest in hearing their concerns.<\/p>\n<p> \u201cI mean, he actually said the words \u2018get to the point\u2019 to us,\u201d said Dani Bensky, who said she was abused by Epstein starting at the age of 17. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSurvivors who have been waiting to meet with him for nine months, eight months, we\u2019ve been asking for meetings\u2014and he very much said, \u2018can you get to the point already?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a sign that Blanche clearly did not have the numbers, the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday night announced that it would postpone a planned vote that was meant to take place today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChairman Grassley works to set President Trump\u2019s nominees up for success in committee, not failure,\u201d a spokesman for Grassley said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Talks with Cornyn and Tillis continued into Thursday, but both Senators appeared to suggest it was one of Trump\u2019s aides, and not Blanche himself, who was causing the impasse to continue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think this were just between me and and Todd Blanch, we would have worked this out. But apparently, he\u2019s getting some pushback from higher-ups at the White House,\u201d Cornyn told reporters on Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cWe have someone else in the way,\u201d added Tillis, without naming names. \u201cI don\u2019t believe it\u2019s the president and hopefully we can resolve it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=4580\">CNN Data Guru Stunned by Trump\u2019s \u2018Absolutely Huge\u2019 Loss of Support<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump has admitted his high-profile pick for attorney general may not have enough support from his own party and floated withdrawing the nomination until he gets enough votes.
