Trump says he might pull Blanche nomination for AG until GOP holdouts leave office

President Donald Trump threatened to withdraw Todd Blanche’s nomination as Attorney General until Republican holdouts Sens. Thom Tillis and John Cornyn leave office. The Senate currently has a Republican majority but could shift to Democrats in midterms, complicating Blanche’s confirmation. Cornyn and Tillis oppose the nomination due to concerns over Trump’s tax lawsuit settlement, prompting Trump to consider delaying the process.
