Matt Gaetz for Attorney General? Trump's Bold Move Alarms GOP Lawmakers | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Just when Republicans were talking about moving quickly on their agenda come January, President-elect Donald Trump now dares them to confirm a string of controversial nominations for his cabinet. Several GOP lawmakers are now casting doubt if that can even happen in a Republican-controlled Senate. The mood among Republicans on the Hill quickly went from optimism to alarm and some disbelief after President-elect Trump nominated Matt Gaetz to be Attorney General, the nation's top cop. Up until yesterday, Gaetz was a member of Congress facing several ethics charges for having sex with underage girls and illegal drug use. Charges Gaetz denies. He has now resigned from Congress, just days before an ethics report was going to be released. Lawmakers on both sides are sounding off.
