Gaetz gets his own thread.

I dont think President Trump thought anything beyond nominating Rep Gaetz. He knows he would have a "yes man" in that position.

I realize that we are occasionally given to hyperbole about the untoward nature of politicians, but let me be clear: Matt Gaetz is a sex trafficking drug addicted piece of shit. He is abhorrent. His eyes are permanently rimmed with the red rings of chemical boosters. In person, he smells like overexposed Axe Body Spray and stale Astroglide. The fact that he boasted on the floor to multiple colleagues in the House of Representatives of his methods of crushing Viagra and high test Red Bull to maintain his erection through his orgiastic evenings is perhaps the least offensive of his many crimes against womanhood and Christian faith. The man has less principles than your average fentanyl addicted hobo. He likes them underage and he’s not ashamed about it. Matt Gaetz isn’t just your average extreme Florida MAGA Man, he’s a hypocritical ass with the worst Botox money can buy, pursuing an ever-thinner nose and higher cheekbones at every opportunity like a Real Housewife gone mad for fillers. Every Republican in Washington has an opinion about Matt Gaetz, and 99 percent of those opinions are “Keep Matt Gaetz away from my wife/daughter/friend and anyone I care about.” He is a walking genital, warts included as a bonus. If I was merely attempting to count the number of women I know who have had bad experiences with Matt Gaetz, I would run out of fingers and toes. If you vote for him to be the Attorney General of the United States, you don’t just need your head examined, you need to be committed to a mental institution. The man is absolutely vile. There are pools of vomit with more to offer the earth than this STD-riddled testament to the failure of fallen masculinity.
And the rest of the post is where he gets nasty.

@Renauda said in Gaetz gets his own thread.:
I get the distinct impression the author is not at all impressed with having Gaetz put forward as a possible AG. In fact I don’t think he even likes Gaetz as a person.
Yeah, it's subtle, but if you read between the lines, you can see he is not 100% in.

It breaks my heart when good friends grow distant. I hope, in time, they can patch things up.

I’d say about as subtle as a rock dash stucco bathtub.

@jon-nyc said in Gaetz gets his own thread.:
House Speaker Mike Johnson said on Friday that he does not think a House Ethics Committee report on allegations related to Matt Gaetz should be released and is “going to strongly request that the Ethics Committee not issue the report.”

So the best remaining explanation for the nomination is that it was to provide cover for his stepping down as a representative.
I mean, that's the best explanation that admits to any strategy to it. The other explanation, which may be occam's razor, is that Trump was unaware of the impossibility of confirmation, and nominated whoever he felt like.
