Senator Tuberville is laying down the law tonight, telling Fox Business that his GOP colleagues in the Senate should be voting to confirm Matt Gaetz for Attorney General because President-elect Trump deserves to get his picks.
Tuberville says he’s heard a couple of senators say they won’t vote for Gaetz, and says that if Republicans stand in the way of Trump’s nominations, he’ll work to get them out of the Senate.
Watch:
I get what Tuberville is saying but that argument won’t sell with his colleagues who don’t like Matt Gaetz. They feel like it’s their duty whether to vote to confirm a nominee, and it sounds like from what he’s already said that Gaetz likely won’t get the job. If it’s two already, it’s going to be 3 or 4 pretty quickly and that will be enough to nix the nomination.
