(19,131 posts)Ha! Played a 'Trump' on you. Of course Ken Starr was never "Senate confirmed." Special Investigators aren't "Senate confirmed," but the witless orange knob doesn't know that. They're appointed by the Attorney General, the Attorney General you appointed, who was then "Senate confirmed".
Once again, Trump just pulls something out of his ass because he doesn't know squat about the government he's supposedly in charge of. But his "base" believes every word that comes out of his galactic-sized mouth, so look for the twitterverse to explode with right-wing bullshit explaining what "he really meant".
