When are people going to learn that you should never use absolutes when it comes to anything Trump?

As for Gaetz specifically, if he committed crimes or, at the very least, practiced unsavory behavior, where is the evidence?

Why is he all of a sudden guilty until proven innocent?

So far, his alleged misdeeds have no factual proof that has been put forth by either the DOJ or the House…

Like so many things they've tried to pin on Trump, the Gaetz stories have the appearance of gaslighting so far…

There's a reason several people are crying about Gaetz…is it because he's some awful person, or is it because he's a danger to exposing who these "leaders" really are?

I'm telling all the doubters here…there's more to this nomination (and its ability to succeed) than you currently comprehend…

So sorry you are "sick and tired". If you can't see what a useful idiot Gaetz is, I'm not sure what to tell you. I get you believe the main stream media is out to get the Trump fan boys, but you have to do so incredibly stupid sh** to be accused of trafficking minors.

Stupid **** like piss off the establishment and fight them tooth and nail at every turn, or stupid **** like committing a sex crime?

To my knowledge, there's only evidence of one of those things being true when it comes to Gaetz…

If you have evidence of the latter, please share…

Maybe DJT will just recess appoint Gaetz and wait 6 months (I just made up that timeframe) to nominate him formally?
Quote:

Massie responded, "Doesn't need to -- recess! He's the Attorney General! Suck it up!"

During the Senate leadership race which Sen. John Thune (R-SD) won, Thune promised to allow recess appointments. That could avoid needing Senate approval.

Recess appointments have been used in the past.

I'd be shocked if Gaetz is appointed the traditional way.

It's going to have to be a recess appointment

That's one of the dumbest posts ever. You have to do stupid stuff to be accused of doing something stupid! Not guilty of actually doing it, just accused of doing it. LOLOLOLOL



And you voted for this:

In a world of the self-absorbed and self-interested, Gaetz stands out as someone who is willing to derail Republican initiatives to serve his own purpose: expunging an ethics investigation.

The results of that ethics investigation will continue and be forwarded to the Senate for review. The information the DoJ/FBI has in relation to his ties to sex trafficking will make its way to the Senate in similar fashion. He will be subject to extensive testimony and continual investigation. As he has to tell the truth, he will be in trouble from the git-go.

This appointment is the Sessions choice on steroids. But I don't believe he will ever be approved by the Senate.

The net benefit of this is he cannot hold the Trump agenda hostage in the House in order to save his ass from an ethics investigation.

For those of us in Florida, the bad news is we are probably going to see him run for governor.

As he is a young Joe Biden on the Republican side, there is no way in hell I will vote for him.

Kinda like those who said Trump could never get elected again, and his ceiling was 47%, and a vote for Trump in the primary was a vote for 4 more years of Leftwing rule?

It's amazing to me the number of people who act like they know **** but don't…

Also, the DOJ he refers to dropped the case in 2023:

Quote:

Feb. 15, 2023

The Justice Department is ending its sex trafficking investigation into Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., without charging him with any crimes, his attorneys and congressional office said.

"We have just spoken with the DOJ and have been informed that they have concluded their investigation into Congressman Gaetz and allegations related to sex trafficking and obstruction of justice and they have determined not to bring any charges against him," Gaetz attorneys Marc Mukasey and Isabelle Kirshner said in a statement.

Such a bad choice. I mean damn, you've got better options than to try and waste time with this pick. Hire Trey Gowdy. Poor judgment imo. I'm shocked his chief of staff and family are on board with this bad decision.

Yes because Gaetz is the only self-interested guy/gal up there on Capitol Hill.

It's a difference of opinion. Get over yourself. He isn't a very likable guy and has burned a lot of bridges. He seems very immature and will most likely not get the votes he needs. Just because conservatives on this board don't fall in line with every one of Trumps appointments, doesn't mean we're commies or whatever names y'all are trying to shame people with.

Poor choice by Trump on this one. Too much baggage. Too big of a mouth. Too emotional and too driven by vengeance. There are occasions when he acts and speaks like a child. Schmidt from Missouri is a serious player who knows and follows the constitution and would appear as a much more legitimate candidate than Gaetz. Several others should have been in front of the line of candidates. Not sure Gaetz will be confirmed.

He is majorly divisive and single handily almost wreaked the House with the bull**** he pulled. He's got baggage piled up around him. It'll be difficult for him to win over the senate with what he pulled.

Adam Kinzinger agrees that Gaetz and Tulsi are bad choices. Tulsi is a Russia lover per Adam. Dumbass thinks Gaetz has raped a young girl. I guess he hasn't seen the Merrick memo:

Disagree. He was a bulldog in the senate and has a brilliant legal mind.

I hope the guy gets in. From all appearances he has been railroaded like Trump and is out for blood.

Apart from Desantis who would be brilliant at it, I don't want someone who is going to respect the legal eagles of the DOJ, I want someone willing to dig up and expose the malfeasance of the DOJ and FBI.

Recess appoint him if necessary and see how many of the DOJ staff with civil service protection jump ship. The rats will be fleeing.

I'm guessing Gaetz will be recess appointed. Then he possibly has 2 years as AG through the Senate's next term.

Instead of trying to actually get Gaetz through a formal confirmation, I would like for Desantis be formally confirmed in 2 years when his term as governor is up (he is term-limited and cannot run again).

He wasn't in the senate.

Chaired the house committee on the Benghazi investigation - which nothing happened. Hilary's server turned up in this - nothing happened. 3 years and $8 million spent investigating - nothing happened.

Again, big talking do nothing like Barr.
