Who Is Matt Whitaker And Why Is He Illegally Pretending To Be The Attorney General?
Jeff Sessions, the lawful evil Darth Vader to Trump’s chaotic evil Joker, is out. I will waste no time mourning the end of his reign of terror over black and brown communities. Sure, any Trump appointee would have tried to do the same thing, but Sessions was devilishly effective.
Sessions is exceptional in the Trump orbit, not for his evil but for his competence. Outside of people, like Sessions, foisted upon him by Republicans in the Senate, Trump tends to hire bumbling sycophants. My official prediction is that Trump will eventually tab the obviously corrupt Pam Bondi to head the Department of Justice. But he could also look at Kris Kobach, one of the most buffoonish public servants of our lifetimes.
Such choices would be damaging to the country, but not nearly as creatively destructive as Jeff Sessions. I’m actively rooting for Kris Kobach. I can’t wait to read his typo-laden guidance requiring black people to present a white friend who will vouch for them before they can vote. It’ll be a fun case.
