McCarthy says Gaetz won’t get confirmed: ‘Everyone knows that’

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy predicted that former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), Trump’s pick for attorney general, will not get confirmed by the Senate.

Asked for his response to Trump’s Cabinet picks so far, McCarthy told Bloomberg Television in an interview, “I think the choices are very good, except one.”

“Look, Gaetz won’t get confirmed,” he continued. “Everybody knows that.”

@nursefrombirth Is this going to be like when W nominated his lawyer, Harriet Miers, for SCOTUS, but then she withdrew, so he nominated Alito? Is a bait and switch in progress here?

@brainwise No telling with those characters and their political shenanigans. They are dangerous.

@nursefrombirth

They also said Trump couldn't be the Republican Nominee in the lead up to the 2016 election - "everyone knows that!" And yet, here we are...again.

I don't believe a thing that comes out of Republican mouths. They will lie, cower, and capitulate every damn time.
