He "gets" it.

Coward RINOs in the GOP are still too numerous.

That would be great.

But rumor is that he may want DeSantis job in next election.

DeSantis should appoint himself Senator.

Well, he is still the Congressman-Elect for his Congressional seat. So he could just be sworn back in to that seat in January.
The greatest argument ever made against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with the average voter.

It was a horrible nomination by Trump. I love most of his picks but not this one. Everyone hates this guy. Trump needs a bulldog AG like Obama had in Holder, but appointing someone that even your own party hates is not a smart move.

On an unrelated note, I am holding out hope that Trump nominates Cruz to the SCOTUS when Clarence Thonas retires. That would cause the most epic meltdown by the Dems.
We may not always get what we want. We may not always get what we need. Just so we don't get what we deserve.

Anyone know why? I thought with Trump going all in on him and threatening everyone with Elon-funded primaries, it was a given.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

They'd have to release the ethics report next session then.

Say what you want about the accusations against him, but the way this all went down looks bad for him. He resigned immediately the week before the ethics report would have been release for a job he decided he wasn't going to even try to get confirmed for? Even if the reports are 100% false, this just has very bad optics.

If there wasn't anything in that ethics report, we'd all know it. This confirms that.

Nah, the walls are just closing in on a guy with too many skeletons in the closet.

It's incredibly obvious at this point there's some really damning stuff that was going to come to light if he remained in public life.

This is actual breaking news, not just user commentary.

as we said from the beginning- he was an AWFUL choice.

but at least if we get him out of Congress it's a bonus.

DeSantis for Senate!

we have the unique opportunity to put up the most brilliant MAGA and effective Republicans

not hacks like Gaetz.

Byron Donalds would be better

why do so many Trump fans believe there is ONLY ONE qualified person in a country of 330 million -

with 77 million who voted for Trump!?!?

it's frankly a form of leftism to believe in the "indispensable man"

there are LITERALLY 100 MAGA attorneys who can serve as the AG.
