Trump Faces GOP Resistance Over Gaetz's Confirmation

Senate Republicans have expressed to Donald Trump that his choice of Rep. Matt Gaetz for attorney general is unlikely to be confirmed, citing concerns over Gaetz's controversial reputation and potential political fallout. Despite Trump's push for Gaetz, many Republicans fear the nomination process could be damaging, especially with upcoming elections. The Senate Judiciary Committee is expected to scrutinize Gaetz's background thoroughly, including allegations of misconduct, which he denies. Trump's ally, Elon Musk, has publicly supported Gaetz, but the nomination faces significant opposition.
