I think this is a great move by Trump to be pragmatic and tell Gaetz to get out. And a really good move to go with Bondi.
Yes I think, those are going to be hard questions that she has to answer in the confirmation hearings and there is a significant chunk at the Senate Republican conference that is just not going to have her world view on a lot of these…
