Betrayed Republican Senator Threatens Trump DOJ Humiliation

A meeting between Sen. John Cornyn and Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Justice Department was canceled ahead of a crucial step in the confirmation process.

The Texas senator was set to meet with Todd Blanche, the president’s former personal attorney and attorney general nominee, on Wednesday morning, but it was scrapped.

The face-to-face was scheduled one day before the Senate Judiciary Committee is scheduled to vote on Blanche’s nomination. Two Republican senators are still standing between Blanche and the top job at the Justice Department.
