(10,811 posts)I think there are some Trump ass-kissers that play at being all-in on him just to advance their careers. Whether that describes Gaetz, I don't know.
I expect when the rubber meets the road and Trump orders him to arrest Obama, Biden, Hillary, etc. and charge them with treason, we'll find out.

(12,271 posts)HOWEVER, and maybe I'm being overly optimistic on this, it seems that there are several GQP Senators who won't vote to confirm Gaetz.
AND (there's a very good chance this one is wishful thinking, but I'll throw it out there anyway), now that the cat is out of the bag as far as why tRUMP wanted to be able to make recess appointments I'm hopeful that even some GQP Senators won't be able to stomach that.
