For months, Acting AG Todd Blanche has dodged a clear answer — but The Contrarian hasn't looked away. Here's a range of takes on Trump's ex-lawyer ahead of his confirmation hearing to lead the DOJ.
Blanche symbolizes the very worst qualities of lawyers and thoroughly disgraces the profession. The thought that Donald Trump is trying to foist his personal criminal defense lawyer on the American people as the country's chief law enforcement attorney is revolting. The Senate needs to protect us from him.
Who writes your headlines? ("A Collection of Blanche Checks") That person deserves a raise and I'm not sure they don't need to volunteer their services to the New York Times
What a stomach-turning statement: "I love you sir" UGH
So much for any separation of powers.
How laudatory that Blanche has built a successful career by keeping Trump out of jail — for years!
Who of us can't say that keeping out of jail has been such a constant challenge?
ha ha

Another Trump lawyer, that is all you need to know that he’s not qualified.
Succinct. 'Kept me out of jail for years'. Prosecution rests.
