I disagree.
I hate the guy but he was about to eviscerate the deep state.
And his excuse is LAME. It's going to "make things harder" for Trump/Vance? Having to pick another AG makes things harder, and it undermines Trump's credibility in all future picks.
I hate the guy even more after this. Asshat.
Looking at this logically, do you think Trump was surprised that this happened?
The excuse is BS as you said. I think this was Trump's plan. Maybe he was simply doin it to give Gaetz a way to exit the House and not have to deal with his investigation. Or maybe Trump was doing this to expose the RINOs.
McConnell, Collins, Murkowski and Markwayne Mullin all said they would not vote to confirm Gaetz under any circumstance. So that kills the nomination riht there unless Trump wanted to go with recess appointments.
I think we need to see who the next nominee is to get a sense of what's going on here. Plus we need to see where Gaetz ends up.
If the next nominee is clearly a Plan B pick and Gaetz slinks back to the House, that suggests Trump got caught flat-footed here. How many times does that happen to Trump?
On the other hand, if Gaetz slides into Rubio's senate spot and Trump nominates a home run replacement, that suggets this was all a plan.
I checked, Kash has a law degree, so he could be nominated as AG. I did think it was curious that the media seemed to be freakin out about Gaetz as AG and Kash as possible FBI director in parallel.
Kash as AG and Devin as FBI Director?
