Christie failed miserably managing the transition. Trump was scrambling to find and vet people for his administration the day after the election, instead of announcing candidates and sending names to the Senate for approval. The first six months of his term were a personnel mess as Obama carryovers were able to sabotage the administration because their successors had not been named.
The DOJ needs a housecleaning. Christie has demonstrated ineptness in finding talented staff. Move on to other candidates.
We need the new conservative Lindsay Graham in the Senate, not untrustworthy and ambitious Nikki Haley. There must be talented, high energy, politically savvy, and administratively capable attorneys to fill the role.
“The DOJ needs a housecleaning.”
It needs to be gutted stem to stern. The problem is how to do it...It’s not a one person task.
Huh?
The Senate couldn't approve a Trump nominee the day after the election. Trump couldn't formally nominate them because he wasn't even the President yet. Most of his cabinet picks were announced long before he was inaugurated, so the Senate had plenty of time to vet them in December and January.
