The Presidency and the Justice Department

When Pres. Trump says he can do anything he wants with the Justice Department (and its FBI) he is simply wrong. When he claims Pres. Obama demanded the same kind of loyalty he is wrong.

From DailyKos.com:

"Joyce White Vance is a University of Alabama Law Professor who is often seen on MSNBC and served America as an attorney in Birmingham. She served as a federal prosecutor for 25 years and is a wife and mother.

In a tweet Thursday night, Vance expressed her respect for President Obama and how he made it clear to his appointed US attorneys—who they will be serving. Here is what she revealed.

"The first time President Obama met with US Attorneys, he told us, 'I appointed you but you don't serve me. You serve the American people. And I expect you to act with independence & integrity.' None of us ever forgot that."

Trump demanded government employees (appointed or not) give their sole loyalty and service to him."

Donald J. Trump was, and remains, unfit to be president!
