Again, this is a lie. The “Blue Slip” is just a norm, not even an official statute, giving senators a veto over certain appointees serving in their state. The president still has to nominate them, and Trump did just that on November 17, 2017, announcing Weiss as among a slate of US Attorney and Marshal picks sharing “the President’s vision for ‘Making America Safe Again.’ Accordingly, the President today announced his intent to nominate these individuals to serve their respective jurisdictions.”

Of course if he didn’t try to lie about this to his fans, who don’t really understand how the federal government works, and bizarrely pretend that two Democratic Senators, then in the minority in the Senate, somehow unilaterally appointed and confirmed Weiss, then Trumpsters might be concerned their Messiah was indirectly responsible for Hunter Biden only facing 10 years in prison.

Next Trump wrote “This, the gun charge, is the only crime that Hunter Biden committed that does not implicate Crooked Joe Biden. One down, Eleven to go! The Democrats, with all of their horrible, very unfair, and mostly illegal Witch Hunts, have started a process that is very dangerous for our Country. They have opened the proverbial Pandora’s Box, and it is possible that the USA will never be the same again. SO SAD!!!” before screaming “THE DEMOCRATS MUST STOP INTERFERING WITH OUR UPCOMING 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION” in the next post on his lame Twitter clone.
