Trump should nominate Christie

Do you know if any of the 16 other interim US attorneys appointed with Berman on 1/3 have been nominated yet for a full term?https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/attorney-general-sessions-appoints-17-current-and-former-federal-prosecutors-interim-united …

The W.D. La. attorney was replaced by a Senate-confirmed appointee. The Hawaii and W.D. Mo. attorneys are up for Senate Judiciary Committee votes on Thursday. Nick Hanna has also been formally nominated.

Liar. Trump interviewed him
