What happened to "we're pushing my nominees through with recess appointments whether the Senate likes it or not"?
The senators said something to him to get him to drop out. As for what that something is, it couldn’t have been anything good. Blackmail photos? I don’t know
The recess appointment was presented as the primary strategy from the start. This would bypass the need for senate confirmation entirely, and was the normal way of doing things for most of US history.
Maybe this was just a ploy to get the senators to be more reasonable and play ball. If they will work with Trump, then he will go easier, but if they fight him like last time, he will come with hammer and tongs.
However, in my opinion hammer and tongs should be the only approach under consideration. He should not budge an inch, and should tear into the existing GOP membership of the house and senate with investigations and indictments. Seeing him even consider trying to get along with the existing house and senate membership is a tremendous letdown.
The Gaetz withdrawl was really disappointing. A saw a video of Gaetz and he was naming all the senators who got rich with insider trading and most of them were Republican. That is why they hate him. Trump should just make these bitches obey with prison time for any senator that doesn't vote his way. There is enough dirt to put every one of them in prison.
The reporting is that only four red Senators were opposed to Gaetz:
If that's true, it makes it inexcusable for Gaetz to have withdrawn, especially when recess appointments are on the table.
I doubt the validity of this story though. I think it's more likely that these four Senators have agreed to take the heat for the rest, since they're all more or less untouchable in primaries.
Most likely there is more dirt on Gaetz that hasn't come out yet, and by withdrawing he prevents its release.
Unfortunately, he was likely the best choice. Trump already backing down from his most anti-swamp pick is not a good look.

Meanwhile, Ken Paxton may be angling for the job. This investigation seems calculated to earn Musk's endorsement:

I don't know how good a pick she is. I'll wait to see what the reactions are.
However, I will point out that at 59 years old, she is a real survivor of the wall! I did a search looking for a picture that would catch her looking about as normal as possible, leaving out makeup and retouched images. I snipped this from a video. All the others I saw looked even better.
Most women her age look a lot rougher!
Edit: Her age shows more here, and she's carrying a few extra pounds. Still, most women at 59 look much worse.
I laughed when I heard this. Trump hey I tried! Here’s a consolation prize.
Actually we’re all getting ahead of ourselves. His presidency hasn’t even started yet. I voted for him every election cycle, but my expectations are pretty low. I want to hope he does what he promises, I want to believe…but…I never did the first time so sure am not going to be believing now.
Still I was pumped for his win and hope him and his admin the best.
Lol they’re doing the rape thing for everybody. Apparently Trump just seeks out rapists and nominates them to court and cabinet positions. The new administration is trying to get these sexual deviants into office to thwart gays and trannies from getting access to your children!

Hegseth is a big jew ally, he’ll probably get in. Who knows though?
Pros: She's a Trump loyalist, defended him during his first impeachment trial and after the stolen 2020 election. She seems to be a competent attorney. She will likely go along with Trump's main policy pushes, like deportations, war on Fentanyl, and so on.
Cons: She doesn't seem as energetic or outspoken as Gaetz. She's not a reformer. I doubt she'll rock the boat or go after politicians for corruption, insider trading, AIPAC influence, etc.
In general, if the jew clowns at msnbc are upset about something then I’m all for it
Yep, Trump has their number now. He just needs a whole administration full of women! If the Dems accuse any of the nominees of being racist, he can just get around that by making sure they’re all minorities too. Libs owned.
Yah, Trump out foxed them - he picks a woman to avoid the false rape allegation and she still meets his number one criteria - loyalty.
Alright, this was clearly a hot take. The publicity photo picture of her in the first tweet is attractive to me. I saw she was 59 so I went looking for pictures of her that showed her age. I didn't find anything making her look too bad, so I made my post.
Naturally after that I had several opportunities to see things more clearly! She's still ahead of the pack in the 59 age group, but she does look her age.
