Fetterman Criticizes Trump's Gaetz Nomination

Senator John Fetterman criticized President-elect Donald Trump's nomination of Rep. Matt Gaetz for Attorney General, calling it a "God-tier kind of trolling" intended to provoke both Democrats and Republicans. Gaetz, who resigned immediately after the nomination, is under investigation for allegations including sexual misconduct, which will cease now that he is no longer a member of Congress. Fetterman highlighted that while some of Trump's other picks are serious, Gaetz's selection seems more like a provocative stunt. Fox News contributor Andy McCarthy labeled the nomination as "foolish," stating that Gaetz's past actions disqualify him from the role. Senate Republicans have expressed skepticism about Gaetz's confirmation, with some suggesting it is unlikely to happen. The reaction underscores a divide within the GOP regarding Trump's controversial choice for a key position in his administration.
