Summary
Senate Republicans are largely opposed to confirming Matt Gaetz as attorney general, with more than 30 reportedly considering him unqualified.
Gaetz, nominated by President-elect Trump, faces resistance due to past controversies, including a DOJ investigation into alleged sex trafficking, which he denies.
Senators are calling for the release of a House Ethics Committee report on Gaetz, which may include allegations of misconduct.
Trump’s team remains confident despite concerns over Gaetz’s confirmation prospects. Some Republicans warn against a recess appointment, fearing it would weaken the Cabinet’s credibility.
Don’t worry, the spineless cunts will all fall in line when the time comes, like the good little fascists they are.
Didn’t the Senate Republicans say something to the effect that Roe v. Wade would never be overturned?
They say a lot of things.
They also dismiss anything horrible Trump wants to do as him telling a joke until he does it.
I mean… They will though right? We’ve all seen this movie before.
Memories are really short apparently.
Recess appointments are “on the table.”

Bullshit. They’ll furrow their brows for moderates, then give the disgusting MAGAts anything they want. Party over country…
They’ll just make him “Acting” Attorney General.
No need to confirm anyone. Mike Johnson is in Trumps pocket and just send the Senate on recess so trump can appoint who he wants.
That way they can all wash their hands while doing nothing about it.
100% he’s confirmed. Take dat shit to the bank.
I would say that 100% he becomes the AG. Whether or not that’s through the confirmation process is yet to be seen.
Yeah, as if they have any principles to stand by. Our country is being run by psychopaths.
I’ve heard this line before…
a majority ofall republican senators will vote to confirm the waste of organic matter anyway.
