Trump says he may pull Blanche’s attorney general nomination until Cornyn leaves office

President Trump threatened to withdraw Todd Blanche's nomination for Attorney General following unsuccessful negotiations with Republican Senators John Cornyn and Thom Tillis. Trump suggested that Cornyn is obstructing the nomination because of an endorsement of Ken Paxton over the senior senator. However, Cornyn denied that their political history is the cause. This potential withdrawal follows a day of fruitless discussions with the two Republican holdouts, dealing a significant blow to the nomination process.
