Possible #Trump US #AttorneyGeneral pick: #MarkPaoletta
Paoletta is spreader of #ConspiracyTheories: he claimed the legal cases against Trump were fabricated. The world witnessed #Jan6, the #ClassifiedDocuments case is undeniable, Trump was convicted of 34 #felonies in NY by a jury, was found liable for #defamation & #SexualAbuse & the judge minced no words in his opinion about the fact that Trump #raped #EJeanCarroll, & Trump & TrumpOrg were found liable for committing decades of #fraud.
