If Sessions Gets Canned, Signs Are Pretty Clear Who Will Get The Job Next

There was a rumor yesterday that longtime Trump ally Rudy Giuliani is being considered for the top job. Those reports were quickly debunked when Giuliani declared that he thought that Sessions “made the right decision” by recusing himself. Some pundits have floated Chris Christie. Not only does he have too much recent baggage (Beachgate and Bridgegate), he also prosecuted Jared Kushner‘s father. So Christie is definitely out. It is an understatement to say that attorneys won’t exactly be lining up to get the job.
That’s why I think Trump’s choice will be obvious: Rachel Brand, who now serves as number three at the Department of Justice. There is little doubt that, at the very least, she will become acting AG if Sessions resigns or is fired.

Why? First, she’s got the conservative credentials, loyalty, and the drive to take on the position. In February, she was confirmed by the Senate in a 52 to 46 margin. Plus, Trump won’t be able to find someone else fast enough to take over the position.
Who is she? She attended Harvard Law Schoo and clerked for United States Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy. She served as the top attorney for the United States Chamber of Commerce, and drew some criticism by Democrats at her confirmation hearing for being beholden to corporate interest. However, she has served under both President Bush and President Obama.
