Giuliani only wants to be the Attorney General.

So does that mean Trump is gonna fire Sessions?

That would make it interesting, but I hate Giuliani anyway.
Not rooting for him at all!

Christie thought he was going to be the AG but Kushner vetoed him.

When Christie was AG in NJ he put Kushner's dad in jail.
So bad blood there, and I'm sure nothing has changed since 3 months ago.

Don't forget, this is the Director of the FBI job, not the Attorney General job we're talking about.

I'm not sure if either Giuliani or Christie would be right - they aren't cops they're former prosecutors.

And the fact that neither Christie nor Giuliani are right for the job wouldn't make any difference to Trump - just about everybody he's appointed has been totally wrong for their jobs.

Under oath they would demand to know who in the FBI office gave him information on the Hillary email story.

The former Post Office Pavilion is across the street from my old office, and trump and his sleazy buddies have ruined the neighborhood. GLAD I'm 60 miles south of there now!
