Ask yourself:

1) what is Trump getting in return from the Collins/Murkowski/Thune/Tillis crowd?

2) what is Gaetz getting for serving as a "give"?

3) who "not quite as extreme" but still a reformer gets the nomination?

Clearly a deal has been struck.

Yup.

I say he gets Tulsi and his personal attorney as AG, which is what he wanted. Now he gets it with no fight...

Hell, he may even get recess appointments for the others, but that would not be a wise move.

What position doesn't require confirmation and can still be a pain in the ass? That is where he will show up.
senator from FL to replace Rubio
Zero chance. DeSantis won't tie his fortune to a Gaetz selection. Gaetz is lined up with a private sector job for a couple years and then will be quietly slotted into an Exec branch position not requiring confirmation.

Strangely, DeSantis is a big winner. He gets to replace Rubio with an ally and then help two more allies run for the two open HOR spots…….given the short election timeline his PAC $ will create heavy front runners for his preferred people.

Vance needs to shine bright over the next four years because DeSantis is sitting in plain view.
DeSantis v. Newsome would be the ultimate disparate choice election.

As an aside, the speed of the Gaetz withdrawal is a solid sign that Trump is listening closely to Vance.
That item (if true) is very encouraging.

Gowdy please.


Gowdy is too independent. He'd be a great selection


Osodecentx wants Gowdy. Therefore we know he is a terrible pick.

it was mostly a poke at Oso but had enough possibility that it could happen( very unlikely and I am not predicting it or expecting it)

He will be well taken care of and has options

I agree with you on Vance. He is a sharp political operator and has a better grasp of Congress than Trump. Trump needs to listen to him on Congress and maybe we can get the important stuff through.

We need someone who will actually go after corrupt people in D.C.

If the russiagate information is fully declassified, I want someone who will charge seditious conspiracy.

Look over the last twenty years. It's always been the Left that pursues false accusations and innuendo, and anyone saying different might as well be wearing a DNC tattoo.
Some are counting on Trump to change that.


Geez, I hope this isn't all we do the next 2 years talk about this crap. Even last times fiasco we discussed the border, prison reform, NATO, N Korea...


Well, who won the 2020 election?


You guys do not get it, it is not about winning the election. It is about implementing your agenda. To do that you need the other pillars of Government or it is just Executive Orders that can rescinded. Doing this **** does nothing but sets up years of BS

"You guys"?


In general, term of speech. Not one person. Those that keep arguing that this mandate is what's important, not if you can't get it passed.


3 vote majorities in the house and senate is hardly a mandate.

Trump is going to have to rely on executive orders still again.
And that's ok with me in regards to the border and the woke bull*****

If the Dems reverse them all still again in four years, we deserve what we get.



You spent months saying Trump had no chance to win.



Indeed I did.

Very glad to be wrong.

However that a doesn't alter the realities of only 3 vote majorities in the house and senate.
I voted for DeSantis in the primary, voted Trump in the general. Didn't think he had a snowball's chance in hell to win.

Glad I was wrong as well.

Looking back at the most recent election, I wonder if DeSantis could've pulled off a win. Trump and his people at the RNC really had their game face on. They came to play and indeed they did.

Some speculation is that, this is exactly how Trump wanted this to play out. He knew Gaetz wasnt going to get confirmed so he sacrificed him to take the heat off the other nominees

Agree with the Epstein list.

Waste of time and energy charging dozens of people who few if any will ever see a day in jail.

She's qualified.

It never sure me how guys of value will twist themselves into knots for these clearly immoral and unqualified incompetents like Gaetz because Trump picked them.

I think the word for Bondi with her qualification is "DEI"

Former Assistant State Attorney in Florida, and then Attorney General of Florida for 8 years. I am not sure that qualifies as DEI, but ok.

Her resume contrasts with that of Gaetz, who has little of the traditional experience expected of an attorney general.

In 2010, Bondi became the first woman to be elected Florida attorney general and served two terms. She serves in leadership roles with the Center for Litigation and the Center for Law and Justice at the America First Policy Institute. Her selection for a Cabinet role reinforces the right-wing think tank's status as a leading source of political appointees for Trump's second term. The group helped lay the groundwork for a second Trump term but avoided the type of backlash levied against a similar effort, the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025.

Yes, Bondi is certainly qualified and a much better pick.



However I think the word for Bondi regarding her qualification is " BABE ".

.

That's exactly DEI. VP Harris was DEI having been an AG, Senator and VP and Jackson was DEI having been an Appellate Judge and Harvard law, easily a Florida AG is DEI.

What's not DEI is Kennedy at HHS and Oz at Medicare. They are qualified.
