Not unexpected...................
I knew he wasn’t going to be confirmed. Too much dirt baggage and he is hated even among GOP.
Yup
Hmmmmm, iow, taking the spotlight off him.
Should have thought about that before he resigned from Congress.
Mike Davis it is.
Get DeSantis to appoint Gaetz to fill Rubio’s Senate seat.
Sad, but inevitable.
Sucks. He would have been good. Lets see who we get now. If it’s that other guy he’s a POS. All in for warrantless spying, was at the FBI before.
If it’s a safe seat and he was gonna have to resign anyway maybe, then maybe not.
I think there is some fire near that smoke and he should lay low.
EXACTLY
PLAN B
Bummer. THAT was gonna be FUN!
He was loathed within the GOP, and it really wasn’t about ideology. He just rubbed people the wrong way. I don’t see that as a recipe for success as the head of a vast organization like the DOJ.
“Too much dirt baggage and he is hated even among GOP.”
The dirt was fake and was created because the GOP hates him. Because he stands against their DC party.
“I knew he wasn’t going to be confirmed. Too much dirt baggage and he is hated even among GOP.“
The GOPe hates Trump as well, in case you missed it
“Get DeSantis to appoint Gaetz to fill Rubio’s Senate seat.”
Yes.
...agree....I believe numbers of Senators would not have voted to confirm him...Murkowski, Collins and that ultimate RINO, Cornyn of Texas, already indicated they would have voted “NO” for him, if I am not mistaken...too much “baggage”....
Gaetz was not a builder.
He was what was needed which was demolition.
Still need a demolition specialist.
Maybe this is a win for the swamp.
But may be Trump is playing 4d chess.
The Art of the Deal is the low ball initial offer.
It could be argued Gaetz was a low all offer.
Anyway looks like Senator Gaetz now.
Now they are going to pressure ALL Trump’s picks. We are up against powers that most just do not realize exist.
“Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men’s views confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the U.S., in the field of commerce and manufacturing, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.” 1913 – President Woodrow Wilson
“Get DeSantis to appoint Gaetz to fill Rubio’s Senate seat.”
That may be the master plan
