But she did point out the judge was a Trump appointee
Not the judge. The US Attorney.
And it cannot be stated enough times that the US Attorney for ANY state MUST have the approval of at least one of the Senators of said state. In most cases, the names are selected from a list provided by the Senators of the state.
Since both Delaware Senators are liberal Democrats, Trump had a very limited list of prosecutors to choose from that would be able to obtain the required sign-off by Tom Carper and/or Chris Coons.
Weiss is most certainly NOT a conservative Republican. This is total gaslighting on the part of Margaret Brennan.
Which is no surprise.
