What's Next for Matt Gaetz?

Florida, USASat Nov 23 2024
Former Florida Representative Matt Gaetz has decided not to return to Congress next year. He shared this news in an interview with Charlie Kirk. Gaetz had previously been considered for the role of Attorney General by President-elect Donald Trump, but he withdrew from that possibility. Recently, Gaetz resigned from the House to focus on his new role supporting Trump's administration. He believes he has served his time in Congress and is excited to see new talent in his district. Gaetz's decision follows an investigation by the House Ethics Committee into allegations of sexual misconduct, which he has strongly denied. He claims these allegations are part of a smear campaign. Despite the controversy, Gaetz remains a strong supporter of Trump and plans to help shape his new administration. The former congressman is enthusiastic about Trump's choice for Attorney General, Pam Bondi. He believes her confirmation will be smoother than his would have been. Gaetz acknowledges that his political style has alienated some within his party, and he blames part of his troubles on political motivations against him. Gaetz's resignation from the House allows him to focus on supporting Trump without the distractions of his previous role. He is optimistic about the future and believes Bondi will make an excellent Attorney General.
