“It is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition. There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration.”
Gets DeSantis to appoint him Senator when Rubio is confirmed at State. 🤬 Then he can be Trump’s inside guy for the Senate and piss off 99 more colleagues.
Interesting news however, does anyone want CNN to do their jobs and ask REAL questions and PROPER FOLLOW UP’s? Don’t be cowards like that morning joe douche! DO YOUR JOBS! You haven’t so far, you gave the orange freak show a complete pass the last 24 months…
Doubtful. Someone played that well. Other House members, even of his own party, disliked him. He made a lot of enemies.
If he runs for anything they’ll drop that report. It’s like an anti-Gaetz insurance policy.
1/ “Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz strode into House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy’s office on Monday night with a list of demands. Among them: The chairmanship of a key House Armed Services subcommittee.
McCarthy rejected the offer. That decision set in motion…”
2/ a chain of events that left Gaetz and McCarthy locked in open confrontation on the House floor late Friday night.
Gaetz, McCarthy’s staunchest opponent, dramatically denied the California Republican the final vote he needed to become speaker –
So let me get this straight... he resigns to avoid the release of a report into serious investigation into allegedly illegal behavior... and it just disappears? No consequences? Whee is the accountability?
Gaetz distracts, runs interference for Linda McMahon and Tulsi Gabbard etc. The House congressional report doesn’t go public. He withdraws from AG pick, then Desantis names Gaetz as Rubio’s replacement to the Senate where the republicans will likely appoint him to run some big important committee…
IMO the only reason he would withdraw would be if he was going to face scrutiny in a Senate confirmation hearing. And that implies that the Senate has no intentions to recess in January, which, in turn, would mean that all the other appointees will be subject to hearings. Maybe better news yet. 💙💙💙

One done, 50 more to go.
Maybe that was his real plan all along

Sure he feels like a victim even though he did this to himself. Period point blank

Why was Gaetz so determined to be chairman of the House Armed Services subcommittee?
Ask Putin. Maybe he knows.
I hope the Senate doesn't tolerate such an idea.
Don't screw over your "friends" for online notoriety.
Somewhere Kevin McCarthy is knocking back a celebratory shot. Or ten.
I’m sure there’s a predator with just as equally offending experiences waiting to step up next… 🙄
