"Matt Gaetz Drops AG Nom"and May Accidentally Screw Himself in Process
But Gaetz's confirmation seemed increasingly unlikely in the days since his nomination. He faced immense opposition from inside his own party at a time when any of Trump's nominees for his upcoming Cabinet can only afford to lose three Republican votes during their Senate confirmation process.
By Friday, estimates from inside the upper chamber predicted that Gaetz could face anywhere from 12 Republican "no" votes to upward of 30, reported The Wall Street Journal.
Gaetz resigned from Congress last week after his nomination was announced, abruptly crushing a House Ethics Committee probe investigating reports that Gaetz had sex with an underage girl.
He reportedly pulled his nomination Thursday just minutes after CNN reached out to the ex-lawmaker for comment on a bombshell revelation that the Ethics Committee had been notified of a second sexual encounter between Gaetz and the same 17-year-old.

In a statement following Gaetz's withdrawal, Trump said he had "much respect" for the Florida politician for minimizing the distraction and predicted Gaetz would have a "wonderful future."
Gaetz's withdrawal from consideration for attorney general now leaves him completely out of power. He could attempt to run in his district's special election to recoup his lost seat in the House, though it's unclear if doing so would reignite the Ethics investigation into his alleged misconduct."

The Question remains.... will Gaetz PAY himself to screw himself each time he screws himself?
Point and laugh at the whiny little cunt, fuck you.

doubling down on ignorance is rarely effective....[and proving it repeatedly ]
especially when it's coming from pathological lying psychopaths such as yourself.
