Gaetz gets his own thread.

[Mik]

As good an explanation as I have seen. That and the distraction factor - "Hey! Look over there! (not here)"

[Horace]

In any case, it's clear that Gaetz saw the opportunity to step down with some cover, and took it. Whether it was part of a plan, who knows.

[89th]

Didn't they (Trump, Gaetz, et al) board a plane without an AG nominee and by the time they landed they had decided to go with Gaetz? Seems it might just be occam's razor...aka a rushed decision made over a Big Mac.

[George K]

@89th I think @jon-nyc posted that. If true, hasty is a kind word for that.

And the wingman.

By the way, Gaetz’s resignation was from the 118th Congress. He was elected to the 119th?

Think he’ll be enough of an a-hole pursue this?

[jon-nyc]

I think he's afraid of that ethics report coming out. But we'll see.

True. However, if he doesn’t try to see himself in the 119th, Congress, it is really a moot point isn’t it?

On the other hand, I could see him being appointed to a non-confirmation dependent position.

[jon-nyc]

Yeah. Some sort of white house advisor.

[jon-nyc]

At any rate, one down, at least three more to go.

[Renauda]

Gaetz looks too much like a rather dodgy Star Trek space alien to make a credible AG. Good thing he stepped aside.

He looks like a televangelist to me.

Sooth words.
