Trump apparently realizes that Gaetz may not be confirmed but continues to push his candidacy as a way to shift the Overton window of what kind of nominee can be confirmed

I'm no expert, but I'm fairly sure you're giving that dementia-riddled brain of his WAY too much credit. The man isn't playing 4D chess, he brute forced a victory at the poles though lies, amplified and recirculated by right-wing media and influencers. Now he is more concerned about his McDonald's
Yep he is good at deflecting attention away from what he really wants! He will use anyone and lie to achieve HIS agenda! Regrettably he is proficient at this tactic!
I feel like Gaetz parallels Kavanaugh. Both could easily switch in the next person on the list and get the same results.
It’s about power, showing that they can force the worst candidate through and there’s nothing we can do it about it. It’s the rapist move, wanting us to submit to it.
Exactly. And if the Senate refuses to confirm Gaetz, then it will be obligated to confirm the rest of his crazy choices because they’re too afraid to buck him on more than one. I agree that it was totally calculated.
Every time I think it’s not possible for me to hate Donald Trump more somebody write something like this and all of a sudden I find room for more hatred and loathing.
Because God forbid Trump ever admit he made a mistake. A man who refers to himself as “The Chosen One” perceives himself incapable of errors in judgement, blunders, or whatever you choose to call his attitude about dismissing experience, character and integrity for Cabinet choices, advisors, aides.
Just a question. What happened to the shambling, word salad speaking, deeply demented piece of crap that we all viewed on the campaign trail. Was that an act, to disarm us? Letting us think that he was finished? He IS demented but apparently not to the extent that he pushed out campaigning. .
The exhausting thing about 45 (among many) is that when he wants something he repeats and repeats in an attempt to break people down. Does he give a damn about Gaetz? Nah, he doesn't care about anyone. But it's his pick and being told "no" is beyond his tolerance. His humiliation meter is so broken.
They give up this power if they want to - not because they have to - they can say no to every unqualified nominee (I realize this may be almost all of them). Advise and consent.
We should not be afraid of Gaetz. He is a child and not intelligent at all. He will be the most useless idiot ever to occupy that position. I say allow the hapless moron to display his legal impotence.
I called and told some poor kid in Blackburn's office that Gaetz was unqualified and I wanted her to be curious about the sex allegations considering her past rhetoric on child predation. We'll see!

Other nominees will seem not too bad by comparison.
I feel like Trump isn’t that strategic.
These guys all have dirt on each other. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s Trump’s motivation.
Flood the zone with bu$l$hit
While attention is focused upon the Florida pedophile, ease Putin's useful idiot and misogynist Fox talking head into place
Republicans: "Let's push really hard for this bad thing to increase our political capital."
