There's a certain set of elite types who swim in the law/national security blob sphere who exist to tell us that that the latest Trump appointee is Actually Good (Despite All Evidence You Hysterical Hippies) and then to circle back about 3 weeks later, when it's too late to even contemplate stopping their appointment, with "oopsie, my bad, yet again...I'll get it right the next time." (narrator: he did not get it right the next time).
Ben Wittes is the main one, but there are many.
