Matt Gaetz Withdraws as Trump's Attorney General Pick
ai generated text
Gaetz faced opposition from both parties in the Senate due to his alleged involvement in the sex trafficking scandal. He has denied all wrongdoing, but the allegations have raised concerns about his suitability to lead the Justice Department.
This provides the president an opportunity to look at other very qualified individuals who can help to revamp the justice department.
For too long, the partisan Department of Justice has been weaponised against me and other Republicans — not any more.
He was doing very well but, at the same time, did not want to be a distraction for the Administration, for which he has much respect. Matt has a wonderful future, and I look forward to watching all of the great things he will do!
While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition.
I remain fully committed to see that Donald J Trump is the most successful President in history.
Trump's DOJ (Department of Justice) must be in place and ready on Day 1.
I will forever be honoured that President Trump nominated me to lead the Department of Justice and I'm certain he will save America.
I had excellent meetings with Senators yesterday. I appreciate their thoughtful feedback – and the incredible support of so many.
