What happens if Gaetz doesn’t get confirmed?

Will the Deputy AG be nominated?
Apparently Gaetz doesn’t have support from over half of GOP senators. Recess appointments are also off the table if 4 GOP senators vote against it, which seems likely

Trump knew this before nominating him. He has a plan. Trust in Big Daddy.

This is not true. Trump can use his power spelled out in the Constitution to send Congress into recess and then appoint him.
Look it up.

He resigned from this Congress but is elected to the next Congress. He would likely assume his seat

Gaetz takes full confirmation attack from Dems, lessening focus on other noms; fails confirmation. He is then appointed by Ron to Back-fill Rubio’s vacated senate seat. Lara Trump runs for Gaetz’s vacated house seat.

If Gaetz doesn't get it, they will get Paxton and both feet pushing their shite in. Careful what you scream for uniparty.

Nope. He will get Johnson to ask to recess. If Thune refuses Trump can adjourn and make the appointments.
That is by law and they cannot do a fckg thing about it.

Hopefully Trump will have a big poster board set up in his office with the names of senators not on board, and he can take pics of it and send it to all of them in a group text. Then he can say “you have one week to find your way off this list…”
Then it’s time to launch Project Primary.

A.P. is literally propaganda. Used to make people believe dumb shite

I really hope it goes this route simply for the wailing and gnashing of teeth in the swamp

This much hand wringing just underscores how good of a pick this is

I’m really enjoying this. I feel guilty.

Both Elon And Charlie K have said they’ll provide funds and go all in to get them primaried. You can’t vote for AG Garland and not Gaetz without consequences.

If any of you are sitting around wondering who the RINOS are, this list will make it absolutely clear.

He’ll be replaced but u expect him to be in the department somewhere.
I was originally tuning he wouldn’t have a chance but I think he has a chance and while I wasn’t really into the pick at first, after seeing the democrats panic I want to see Gaetz confirmed and dig into the department and find the stinky swamp rats.

To allow Trump to make the appointments, Republican senators would have to pass a motion of adjournment with a simple majority vote, though Democrats would likely do everything in their power to prevent it. It is also not clear if such a move would be fully supported by GOP senators.
Thune said the day after he was voted in we don’t have the votes for recess appointments.

Trump can use Constitutionally granted power to force Congressional recess and then confirm after 10 days. Obama did this with dozens of people. Dims are terrified because apparently it's only cool for the black messiah to use those powers, and not the Orange Oracle.
