Why Trump is railing against the Senate's blue slip tradition for nominees
President Trump is challenging the Senate's lue slip tradition, which allows home-state senators to influence judicial and U.S. attorney nominations, deeming it unconstitutional and threatening legal action. However, key Republican senators, including Grassley and Thune, are resisting Trump's push to abandon the practice. They argue it's a valuable tool for both parties and essential for confirming nominees.
