35. Barney Frank wanted a recess appointment for her and said
so before the clock ran out. Which it now has. Why would she want the job now?? She was smeared and abused and called a 'liar' and all of that could have been stopped if the President had simply appointed her as Frank stated.

Senate Republicans have vowed to hold up any nominee to lead the CFPB and say the blockade will not end until changes are made to curb the bureau’s authority.

Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) recently called this “the worst abuse of the confirmation process I’ve ever seen.” He added, “What it clearly says is that the president will have to make a recess appointment.”


But Wall St. did not want her, and there was no recess appointment. No one in their right mind would that job now especially when she had no backing from this administration.

Barney Frank is right to encourage her not to take it. He watched the entire process and realized it was a lost cause.

Our loss, once again.
