Trump should have picked a Senator if he wanted to put a Pedo at AG. Nobody would be investigating a Josh Hawley or Ted Cruz nom.

Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

And just when I thought we wouldn't be getting any positive news for 4 years.
I hate going down a possible conspiracy rabbit hole, but he REALLY felt like a distraction.

Hopefully DeSantis doesn’t pick him to replace Marco Rubio's senate seat

Oh well now that he's not in contest as a nominee I guess no media is stopping him from taking any office.
Roadblock cleared! Sephiroth him.
I'm guessing that while Trump picked him, the power('s) behind the throne quietly strongarmed him into withdrawing.

Doesn't DeSantis get to make an appointment to fill Rubio's Senate seat for the remainder of his term?
BWAH-BWAH-BA-BWAAAAAAAHHHHHHH.
This is going to end up being the worst news and democrats always forget this. Trumps next pick will be worse. It’ll be somebody effective, but awful. He’ll find some MAGA nut job that’s basically hitler ideology with an actual law background and years on a bench. I was hoping dems would back Gaetz a bit because he’s so utterly stupid at least it would shield us for a while.
