Mike Lee: Trump's choice to replace Comey at FBI should be . . . Merrick Garland?

I know what your first reaction is. He’s kidding. Or he’s somehow trolling Trump. (Lee has never been a fan.) Obviously there’s no way a rock-ribbed conservative like Mike Lee would want Barack Obama’s Supreme Court choice running the FBI.

Is there?

Is there?

Say, is Lee crazy for tweeting at 6 in the morning? I ask because that’s what we’re told every time Trump does it:

Of course he is trying to appease the Dems. You never want to be in the bad graces of your boss.

DO NOT COMPROMISE ON ANYTHING. If Trump has learned anything in his first 100 days it should be he will NEVER EVER EVER be given the benefit of the doubt by Democrats. Don’t even involve them, Like Obama never involved Republicans. It will always come back to bite you. We have two years. Midterms will probably shake things up... One year and six months. GET IT DONE.

Bipartisanship is a word invented by Libs to benefit Libs at the detriment of all others.

Lee has become a inside-the-beltway bum. Fortunately, I can vote and work against his reelection.

No way should Trump pick another globalist to run the FBI. Find someone who is an American-American - dedicated to Americans, equality before the law and the constitution.

I could be wrong but I think it is Lee’s brother, who is currently a judge, that is on the judge list and not Sen Lee.

Interestingly, we’re both right. Mike Lee was added to Trump’s judge list—but his brother was on it first.

Washington • Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, is now on GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump’s short list of potential Supreme Court picks.

Trump previously named several candidates he would consider to appoint to the high court should he win the White House and there were vacancies on the bench — a list that then included Lee’s brother, Thomas Lee, currently Utah Supreme Court associate chief justice.

Trump expanded the list Friday to include the Utah senator as well as other judges from across the country, and said that he would choose only from the 21 people he’s put forward.
