How does trump get away with this when the Dodd-Frank Act clearly addresses this:
(5) DEPUTY DIRECTOR.–There is established the position of Deputy Director, who shall–
(A) be appointed by the Director; and
(B) serve as acting Director in the absence or unavailability of the Director.
*Trump can offer candidates to the Senate for approval, in the meantime the Deputy Director would serve in the appointed position.*
(2) APPOINTMENT.–Subject to paragraph (3), the Director shall be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate.
(3) QUALIFICATION.–The President shall nominate the Director from among individuals who are citizens of the United States.
*Clearly, the acting Director would hold the position until the permanent Director is found thru the required procedures.*
*Seems to me trump has usurped his authority – and I see on Wiki for Mulvaney, this is already presented and shown on the same date, just after his current position as Director of the Office of Management and Budget:*
Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
Acting; Disputed
Incumbent
Assumed office
November 25, 2017
President Donald Trump
Preceded by Richard Cordray
*Cordray made the decision to reassign Leandra English to the position of deputy director*
*How is something like this to be resolved? Maybe someone needs to read it to the fucking moron.*
