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.

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.

“Checks and balances…
Sadly RFK and Holder were not available for comment.

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.

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.
