I guess I shouldn't be surprised by anything after his having Steve Bannon as an advisor.  :lol: 

I thought he'd learned his lesson.  :D

What specifically don't you like about Gaetz? He went after all of the corrupt players in congressional hearings, the only difference is those were just for show. As AG he could actually prosecute their crimes.

So did MTG, but I wouldn't want to see her as AG. 

In my opinion Gaetz is nothing more than a Trump lap dog and Trump loves to surround himself with loyalists.  We'll see how that works out. Hopefully Gaetz doesn't get hit with any more underage sex or drug allegations in the next few years.  :lol:

I look at it this way.

After all of this and all of the repercussions.

I ask is it "you or everybody else?"

"Maybe you are the problem"

Same question they ask me . "When I have been married 9 Times"

But they fail to connect. ;D

I'm single , I adapted.

They Haven't. ;D

This about sums it up -  lol

"Gaetz is a loyalist, and that's the only qualification Donald Trump needs.


In a surprise move, President-elect Donald Trump announced today he is nominating Rep. Matt Gaetz (R–Fla.) to be U.S. Attorney General.

Gaetz, whose legal experience is limited to three years of work at a Florida law firm and being the subject of a Justice Department investigation, wasn't among the names circulated as potential attorney general picks, and his political career as an often unserious and widely-disliked backbencher makes him a bizarre choice to lead the chief federal law enforcement agency.

Rep. Mike Simpson (R–Idaho), summed up the general reaction among Capitol Hill, the media, and social media to the announcement:




However, in a social media statement, Trump praised Gaetz as "a deeply gifted and tenacious attorney, trained at the William & Mary College of Law, who has distinguished himself in Congress through his focus on achieving desperately needed reform at the Department of Justice."

If confirmed, Gaetz would lead the same agency that investigated him for sex trafficking and obstruction of justice starting in 2019. The Justice Department announced in 2023 that it was declining to prosecute Gaetz, who maintained his innocence. There is still an ongoing congressional ethics probe into Gaetz over the same allegations. "

:rofl:  I guess you could look at it that way.

Putting Gaetz in that position is probably a smart move by Trump. Not because Gaetz is qualified for the position, but because

"As attorney general, Gaetz would have wide power to open and close investigations against Trump's enemies and allies, redirect the focus of civil rights investigations, and provide legal cover for the Trump administration's initiatives."

Like Merrick Garland wasn't Biden's lapdog?
Because the only person of note that he prosecuted was Trump, and now all of those bullshit cases will be dismissed because they all lack merit, and were ONLY used as political weapons to try to prevent him from being re-elected.

Yes, the proverbial shoe is on the other foot now, so I don't blame the left for crying about it.  :crybaby:
Well buckle up, buttercup.
You can bash Gaetz all you want, but I have a feeling he will be the left's worst nightmare.  :yes:

Allegedly.
I said this in another thread, if the Biden DoJ had a case against him they would 100% have brought it.  :yes:

But they didn't because there is no case.  :no:

That all you got?  :rofl:
