President Donald Trump said he is prepared to keep Todd Blanche as acting attorney general if the Senate does not confirm him to the permanent post, while renewing criticism of two Republican senators he blamed for stalling the nomination. The president on Saturday singled out Sens. John Cornyn, of Texas, and Thom Tillis, of North Carolina, claiming they both opposed Blanche after he declined to endorse their political campaigns. Trump asserted that Cornyn "lost" and Tillis "quit," referring to their political fortunes, and accused them of standing in the way of Blanche's confirmation. #montana #montanamoment #nbcmontana #mtwx #news #nationalnews #national #politics #politicalnews #blanche #attorney #general #attorneygeneral #washingtondc #watch #threatened #trump #donaldtrump #president #presidenttrump #senate #confirming FULL STORY: Stay up to date with our digital and social media content: Facebook: Twitter: Instagram: Latest local news and weather: Latest Weather Forecast: Download our App: Share Your Photos and Videos: Send us News Tips: [email protected] Call our newsroom: 406-721-5642 NBC Montana is a MT based station and a NBC Television affiliate owned and operated by Sinclair Broadcast Group.
