This thread is reserved for bni to gripe about Matt Gaetz

[Riveting]

...the new AG pick.

In my view, while just about anybody is an upgrade over the corrupt Merrick Garland, I think this is very much the weakest pick by Trump so far - one that I think is a mistake.

With that, I turn this thread over to bni to channel urban radio - joined by the usual woke libs.

 

[BNIBoiler]

Yep that’s a jacked pick like the Faux News co-host.

Doesn’t he have some allegations against him by some chick?

How un-woke of you to say 'chick'. Better be careful about crossing the plantation owners.

The answer to your question, as far as I know, is no.

Risky.

A part of me thinks this is a shrewd move to get rid of Goetz. The majority is going to be razor thin in the House. Goetz has been a PITA every time a close vote comes up in the House. He likes the camera more than the country. As soon as he was named tge AG choice, he submitted a letter of resignation to Speaker Johnson, so he's officially gone from the House. He's not well liked. He may not be confirmed by the Senate. In addition to investigations regarding sex with young girls, he has more than a few enemies in the Senate. A conspiracy theorist might wonder if he was named to get him out of the House without really making him the AG.

Interesting angle - a 4D chess move.

If this does go up in flames per your theory, I would like to see either Mark Levin or Trey Gowdy considered. Hard right R guys, both very intelligent and knowledgeable of WDC.

The answer to your question, as far as I know, is no.

What do you mean no? He is being investigated for sex trafficking. The dude is a freak. He will never be confirmed. If he does I will never have any respect for the repubs ever again. Knowing about the allegations, he should have never been selected in the first place. Chump knowing this and still went on with his selection of Goetz tells me that he wants him in that roll of AG to cause some kind of havoc.

As much as I despise Trey Gowdy, he would have been a 1000% better choice for AG than Goetz.

 

[TopSecretBoiler]

Don't think Gaetz will get senate confirmation.

 

[Boiler Buck]

Well if the theory folks are putting out there is correct.....it looks like a GENIUS choice. (ie...Goetz choice is only for getting him out of the House for multiple reasons. And then he never makes AG, but is out of the House)

And yes, better choices out there....which gives some credence to the theory.

I mean the answer to your question (read it again) is no as far as I know.

You were probably thinking of Dougie Emhoff-Harris, Bill Clinton, Joe Crow, the Cuomo boys, or morning Joe.

This is common knowledge. Thus my statement above about getting rid of him for several reasons. Now this house committee is over. The other being the way he blew up the house speaker with no real plan.

Gaetz is toast. I thought Chump hires the best.

He will most likely become a regular Faux News contributor.

No, it's not common knowledge the report was coming out in a couple days not that it would be as bad as it sounds. Hell the evil and corrupt Garland chose not to charge him.

What's common knowledge is he did some of the things he was accused of and he's very unpopular in the house with his own party.......mostly because of the internal turmoil he created.

Going to have to look back and see all the posters here that defended him when the DOJ was investigating him. Lots of hypocrites.

All kinds of theories. Trump is throwing out a sacrificial lamb so the senate can reject one of his picks so the likes of airhead Noem and others can get confirmed. Gaetz will probably end up on Fox.

Uncle's question was, "Doesn’t he have some allegations against him by some chick?"

I knew of the investigation, but not about allegations by some 'chick'.

What do you mean by 'games'? This seems serious to me, not a game.

Appointing DEI cabinet members would be a game.

Why would republicans want to keep the American people from learning about the alleged sex trafficking of trump's nominee for Attorney General?

Can you imagine the right wingers and Faux News losing their minds if Pelosi requested the records of a dem congressman nominated for something to not be released?

You mean something like the FBI and "intelligence' professionals claiming a laptop with damaging info to a presidential candidate was Russian disinformation?

Or Pelosi's hand-picked Jan. 6 farce committee withholding video of Pelosi saying security was her responsibility? Her words in the video:

“Oh my God, I cannot believe the stupidity of this. And I take the full responsibility.”

Sounds like Trump is getting pretty good at this game called politics. You guys are just too much of simpletons to understand it. This is why he's a master negotiator.

Sure. A more experienced approach. An intelligent strategic Suzie helping.

Don't care about the Dem yapping dogs. They are an irrelevant party right now.

But don't underestimate the egos of the Rs in the Senate.....OR the Rs in general ability to muck things up. Hope Thune can keep them in line. Here is an article on the problem children in the Senate that are full of themselves that could pose problems.

President-elect Trump is rounding out his administration with Cabinet picks, but there are several GOP senators whose votes could prove decisive in rejecting some nominations.

I've said that from the day Gaetz was announced. What better way to rid the cellar of the biggest and dumbest rat than to let the owner of the house poison him.

Gowdy has never lost a case as a prosecutor. He would be my favorite pick

Trust me BB, Noem would eat your lunch. She's been a great governor for her state, she's served other offices well, and would have been your VP had she not talked about shooting the dog.

I'm not sure why a competition between Noem and myself would serve any purpose nor would I trust your prediction on the outcome. I do know know Texas wasn't one of the original 13 colonies so I could probably do better on the history exam.

She's ridden trumps coat tails in a overwhelmingly Republican state since she left the house........and changed her positions to align with his. She's a perfect fool for trump at DHS. Just follow orders sweetheart.

Gowdy would have been a 1000 times better pick than the statutory rapist. The Flavor Aiders get all bent out of shape of folks comparing Chump's style to fascism. However, the pattern of these cabinet picks clearly is an indication of Chump trying to subvert the cabinet departments operating on its own. With these cabinet "yes" men and women, Chump can run an authoritarian type government the best he can. For example, folks in this board have said that Gaetz pick as AG was a good pick to shake up the DOJ. Folks in this board have said the the Dept of Education pick's purpose was to shut down the department.

Do Pell grants fall under the jurisdiction of the DoE?
What exactly is the mission of the DoE and what examples can be provided to demonstrate success?

Here's an example, albeit at the state level: Chicago public schools is near the top of the list in per-student spending, yet they have terrible graduation rates and reading/math scores. That's a failure of the system.
