Trump Slams Republican as ‘Traitor’ in Twisted Blanche Victory Lap

President Donald Trump has celebrated the confirmation of his appointee by skewering a Republican senator who dared oppose him.

Trump, 80, took aim at Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski for not voting to confirm Todd Blanche, who was narrowly confirmed as attorney general by the Senate early Saturday morning.

Senators voted 50-49, with Murkowski and Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine joining all Democrats in opposing Blanche’s nomination to become the nation’s chief law enforcement officer.
