Donald Trump's inclusion of Aileen Cannon as a possible attorney general candidate is "insane", a former Watergate prosecutor has said in response to reports the former president is considering the judge for the job if he wins the presidency.

ABC News reported on Tuesday that Cannon's name appears on a document the network had reviewed titled 'Transition Planning: Legal Principles,' which "lists potential staffing for the White House counsel's office, the Department of Justice, the FBI, and U.S. attorneys' offices."

In July, Cannon, a Trump appointee, dismissed all federal charges against the former president in his classified documents case after ruling that the chief prosecutor, Jack Smith, was illegally appointed...

Trump was facing 40 federal charges in Cannon's court over his alleged handling of sensitive materials seized from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, after leaving the White House in January 2021. He was also accused of obstructing efforts by federal authorities to retrieve them...

In her dismissal of the charges on July 15, Cannon noted that there is no constitutional backing for appointing Smith, a "private citizen", as a Department of Justice prosecutor in charge of Trump's federal indictments.

Smith is now appealing that decision to a federal appellate court in Florida.

"The document was drafted by Trump's top advisers with input from Boris Epshteyn, who oversees Trump's legal team and is one of Trump's most trusted advisers," ABC reported.

"Cannon's name appears second after former SEC Chairman Jay Clayton, according to the document reviewed by ABC News, which includes nearly a dozen potential candidates for attorney general," ABC reported.
 
Of course. True loyalist cult members only.

In reality she should lose her position for how blatantly corrupt she is
Dubs!

No you don't Muthafucka, don't you dare get banned before I win my sig bet!
 
Might as well go all out after all of the lawfare and assassination attempts against him in recent times.

Who can blame him if he's feeling vengeful?
The other team is doing bad things in our imagination so it's OK for our guy to do bad things in reality!

So far Trump's government will almost certainly "award" government positions for "good behaviour" to:

Elon Musk
Patrick Soon-Shiong
Aileen Cannon

You American fellas must be able to help me flesh out this list, anyone else getting a position-for-favours agreement?

Presidential Medal of Freedom Awards for RFK jr and Joe Rogan, probably.

Nice touch to show a meme depicting yourself.
 
I want ALL the smoke.

Just don't get banned, no one else will take a sig bet with me now it's obvious Trump will win. :(

Oh you're getting to pick his sig while I'm getting to pick his av?

Maybe we can cook up something together to make it pair well.

I need someone to make an avi bet with.

All the people who are 'super-certain' won't commit to a bet because they know they will lose.

I thought maybe @emefer would take me up, but he's too smart to bet on Kamala now, even if he won't admit it.

amen. he should just do it. as long as it’s legal and constitutional, go after their lawyers, families, and businesses too. as long as it’s technically legal. payback is a bitch!
 
This has got to be the scariest prospect for the Dems. If Trump learned from his biggest mistake last time round - surrounding himself with disloyal swamp creatures - and builds a good cabinet, he will be 1000 times more effective.

If Trump delivers and saves the economy, I don't know if the Dems will ever recover.
