CNN Legal Analyst Just Shredded Dems' Top Narrative Against Trump's AG Pick
Donald Trump,Attorney General,CNN
President-elect Donald J. Trump moved quickly to move on from former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), who withdrew his name from nomination to be our next attorney general. Mr. Gaetz met with Senate Republicans this week, along with Vice President-elect JD Vance, and four senators were just intractable in their opposition to his taking over of the Justice Department. However, he would have been a top man in uprooting the cancerous tumors within the institution. Instead, Trump nominated former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, who also served as one of Mr. Trump’s attorneys during the impeachment circus during his first presidency.
