President Donald Trump said Thursday he may temporarily withdraw Todd Blanche's nomination for attorney general after two Republican senators have opposed advancing it. In a post on Truth Social, Trump praised Blanche as "a STAR" and said he could become "one of the Greatest Attorney Generals of All Time." Trump criticized Sens. John Cornyn of Texas and Thom Tillis of North Carolina for opposing Blanche's nomination and said he had "no objection" to temporarily withdrawing it if they "do not do the right thing."
