President Donald Trump has unloaded on one of his rivals — and the name-calling has gotten everyone’s attention.
Trump, who has a knack for making short nicknames stick (remember “Low Energy Jeb Bush” and “Crooked Hillary”?), targeted Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff for saying Matthew Whitaker’s appointment as acting attorney general is unconstitutional
Trump says Schiff shouldn’t complain that Whitaker wasn’t confirmed by the Senate because neither was special counsel Robert Mueller, who’s investigating 2016 election interference by Russia.
So funny to see little Adam Schitt (D-CA) talking about the fact that Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker was not approved by the Senate, but not mentioning the fact that Bob Mueller (who is highly conflicted) was not approved by the Senate!
