So What, Chris Cillizza
Once I recovered from the initial shock, I spent some time trying to figure out why Trump would do this. There are three reasons I can think of:
- Gaetz is a loyal solder who will do what Trump wants — always.
- To troll liberals whose heads will explode at the very idea of Gaetz as AG
- To dare Republican Senators to oppose him (and his picks) publicly
It’s that last reason that I think is the real motivation here — mixed, undoubtedly, with a little of #1 and #2.
