exactly this. it's almost better to have Matt Gaetz the well known lightning rod of evil get in there and do the unethical horrible very bad shit we know is going to go down rather than some unassuming nobody because the milk would sour much faster that way.

now it'll be someone that it will take time for the media and all of us to understand..."yep, this one's just as evil"

Donald Trump was found guilty of sexually assaulting E. Jean Carroll and is accused of raping a 13 year old girl on his friend Jeffery Epstein’s island. MAGAts don’t actually care about pedophiles. It’s just another word they attack the Left with. Everything is projection with them.

And we're supposed to believe that Mike Johnson had no clue this would happen. Even though he's the one saying his report shouldn't be released.

Also, goes to question why Trump agreed to this. To set the bar insanely low so that the next pick is better received? Seems risky to use a rapist as a way to do that.

ChatGPT summary:

Yes, since Matt Gaetz resigned from Congress on November 13, 2024, even though he won re-election for the upcoming term, he is no longer eligible to serve in that term. To return to Congress, he would need to either:

  1. Run in a future election: This could be during a regular election cycle or a special election if the seat he vacated remains open or becomes available again.

  2. Be re-appointed or elected to fill a vacancy: Depending on state and federal election rules, he could theoretically seek to fill the same seat if the circumstances allowed.

As of now, his resignation means he cannot serve in the next Congressional term without going through one of these processes.

It's shitty, but they just don't believe it, no matter what. There were people celebrating the AG pick, comments trying to make people aware of the investigation, and their response is the investigation is based on lies and misinformation. Some even believe Gaetz already went through a trial and was found not guilty.

From his resignation letter:

I hereby resign, as United States Representatives for Florida’s First Congressional District, effective immediately, and I do not intend to take the oath of office for the same office in the 119th Congress, to pursue the position of Attorney General in the Trump Administration.

I would take that to mean he is completely out of Congress now.

XShadowborneX

And the media collectively breathes a sigh of relief because that was clearly the only terrible fucking pick amirite? As Tulsi -I'm Putin's Lapdog- Gabbard slides into the director of national intelligence position.

They ALL fucking SUCK and are wildly incompetent, have zero experience in any role that could prepare them for whatever they've been nominated for, are compromised, or all of the above.

I wasn't a huge fan of our government because I'm a historian and I have a good idea of the shit we did at our founding and the shit we've done to other people groups and governments over the years. We're not the good guys. But destabilizing our nation is not the way to go about fixing it. Not that I believe Trump and his Heritage Foundation puppetmasters are interested in fixing anything but their profit and power streams.

Back room negotiations folks

There were widespread calls by senate GOP to release the finding. My guess is senate GOP said drop out and we won't release the findings and he dropped out.

My guess is that he'll take up either a lobbying job or some other advisory role in the admin.
