Yes. The only ones that were ever allowed to come up for consideration were Deep Staters. McConnel wouldn't bring one up for confirmation otherwise. Look at Chad Wolf, acting director for the entire time. Never confirmed, because Trump refused to put a Deep Stater in there again after the first one.
Which is why I wonder how you can't even seem to recall how even Republicans instantly went all Russia, Russia, Russia on Trump for firing Comey. He TRIED to get rid of Obama insurgents and was directly told, if you do so we will charge you with obstruction.
There is always an excuse. I say Trump should have just said fuck it and dragged his balls across the GOP, but hey that's the first term sickness. Obama wasn't half as bad as he was in his second term, because it didn't matter anymore at that point.
