In a surprising and controversial move, President Donald Trump has tapped Representative Matt Gaetz for the role of Attorney General, leaving many Republicans “stunned and disgusted” by what they are calling a “reckless” decision. Party insiders have voiced strong concerns over Gaetz’s suitability for the high-profile role, given his contentious past and outspoken reputation.
The choice has ignited fierce debate within the GOP, with members worried about potential damage to the party’s image. Gaetz, a staunch Trump ally known for his polarizing stances, faces skepticism from both parties as he prepares to step into the influential position. For many, the appointment is a litmus test of Trump’s loyalty to his allies, even when it risks controversy and political fallout.
