A hot mic today caught President Trump ranting about the US Senate blue slip tradition, which is hamstringing his efforts to appoint someone.
Here’s the video:
This isn’t anything Trump hasn’t expressed before, but it underscores just how frustrated he is by this blue slip tradition. Alina Habba just resigned today because her term is expired and Trump has no one to replace her with because of this tradition. I don’t blame him for being angry about it.
