honestly, as much as Gaetz is a PIA in the house.. the AG office might be a place where he could be effective...

might be some trump art of the deal thing going on here..

starts to dismantle the Freedom Caucus.. bringing the party back closer to center..

while putting a very vocal bulldog in the AG office that wont be afraid to chase down any agenda item thrown his way by his boss (trump)..

Matt Gaetz as Attorney General.

I thought you were joking ! Not sure about this one either.

Tulsi Gabbard named as DNI. I think that is an excellent place for her where she can do a world of good for the country.

And Rubio officially named as Sec State.

Both will get instant confirmation and Rubio brings instant credibility to the world stage. Curious to see if DeSantis orchestrates a move into that seat.

Gaetz is almost funny and may face a bit of headwind. However, it does get him out of the House and as AG he has to salute or be fired.

 

[mdwest]

Thinking about the "why" behind the Gaetz nomination... Im betting its more about what Gaetz will do internally to the DOJ than what he would do externally as the countries most senior cop...

He will make it his life mission to purge the FBI and other federal agencies of the bullshit antics and corruption they have pretty blatantly displayed for the past couple of decades.. Im going to guess there will be a whole lot of "think about whether youd prefer to retire.. or prefer to face prosecution.." type conversations that will happen over the next 12-24 months...

Matt Gaetz as Attorney General.

That'll make Red Leg very happy.

I wonder how it will perform against the F-22..? The russkies fortunately have only one or two squadrons of them..

It's in every single way inferior I'm sure. But boy can other nations put on great air displays.

about the only thing the SU57 has going for it is that it has a higher top speed..

the F22 has better stealth.. can engage targets in any direction within range (the SU57 can only engage targets in front of it).. and a number of other very distinct advantages..

We're I flying an F15 or F16 I wouldnt be too happy having to engage an SU57...

But our 5th Gen fighters (both the 22 and the 35) are significantly more advanced than the SU57, and as a rule our pilots are far better trained...

Easy peasy. Have F-35s and AWACs vector the Eagles and Falcons to the rear within range of AIM-120s

 

[Scott CWO]

Tulsi as DNI. Well, I guess the flip-flopper found a job!

No clue what DeSantis will do but have read there is a lot of groundswell for Laura Trump. She did an amazing job replacing McDaniel at the RNC on short notice.

 

[Brent in Az]

Trump needs to be careful plucking people out of the house, unless there is a 100% guarantee they can be replaced with another republican. The house race is still not decided, eh?

These Trump picks have got to have the Dem's foaming at the mouth.....lol.

As soon as I posted I looked it up, thinking maybe he wasn't joking. Didn't see anything. Looked it up again and it was on the NY Post.

This, so far, is the one I don't think I'm onboard with. Gaetz is a douchebag of the highest order. The stories of him are not great.

 

[Red Leg]

That'll make Red Leg very happy.

Great place for him. He can drive the career FBI bureaucracy insane rather than his fellow republicans. I assume he can also tear up his own file.

 

[Wheels]

With Gaetz as AG makes me wonder if Patel may run FBI. Most Presidents will let leaders appoint the individuals under them. Don't think Trump is going to let that happen this time. At least with some of the significant positions.

 

[Brent in Az]

Gaetz for AG is a head scratcher. Certainly not who I would pick. I'd like to know what Trump's reasoning is behind it?
Maybe he wants to scare the shit out of those who tried to take him down with the lawfare campaign?

I thought Laura Trump lived in North Carolina? That may just be her home state.

Just need to find a cushy position for MTG

Im going to bet the file that the file Garland has built on Gaetz has at least 11 volumes and is 1000+ pages in length lol..

An interesting twist to the whole presidential immunity thing that the supreme court ruled on recently.. is.. no one else is immune...

what if Gaetz decided to look into the activities of Garland and others and found that any of their actions or behaviors were in violation of even the smallest of laws?

lawfare of a completely different kind might ensue...

and while on the surface that might sound like a bad thing... if it actually held public officials to a standard of honesty, integrity, and acting only within the confines of the law... how would that be bad?

Think the FEMA chiefs are scrambling right now over their most recent scandal? what if they thought they might actually see prison time for their actions rather than just dismissal?

Next thing we will find out is that Dennis Rodman will become ambassador to North Korea.

These Trump picks have got to have the Dem's foaming at the mouth.....lol.

Gaetz's district is solid red... Zero chance of a dem flipping that seat..
Waltz's seat is also pretty much a lock to stay red...
I would also say it's a safe bet to say that the candidates that get Trump's endorsement are going to be the successors of these seats...

These picks have more than the dems foaming... Lots of Never-Trumpers losing their collective minds as well... Can't say I'm not enjoying every minute of it...
