https://www.rawstory.com/2018/06/fox-news-host-judge-jeanine-pirro-told-trump-aides-wants-attorney-general/
Politico reports that Pirro has repeatedly told Trumps aides and advisers over the last 18 months that shes interested in taking over for Attorney General Jeff Sessions in running the Department of Justice.
The publication also reports that Trump has dangled the possibility of giving her a top appointment and that during a November meeting in the Oval Office, the president raised the possibility of nominating Pirro to a federal judgeship. So far, however, the president has not seriously considered making her his attorney general.
Although the president regularly hires people because he likes the way they present themselves on Fox News, making Pirro attorney general would likely run into fierce opposition in the Senate, even though its run by Republicans.
In addition to her aforementioned conspiracy rants, Pirro has also been caught on camera angrily flipping out on colleagues and has advocated for jailing Trumps political opponents.
