I'm a bit surprised more people aren't talking about his lack of legal experience (which I get doesn't matter to MAGA, but have to think it matters to many Republicans and will matter to a lot of senators (if they actually get the chance to weigh in....)). As I understand it, the man practiced law for a whopping two years at a tiny firm in north Florida (and you are completely swimming in your first two years), and then became a state house rep. He then continued to "practice" for another 6 years until being elected to the US House.

You can't practice in a meaningful sense while being a member of the state house--maybe at a sub 10 person firm (where he maybe tried 9 cases over 8 years), but not at legitimate firms. But even if you could (and the 9 case record isn't correct), the nominee for AG has at most 8 years of experience as a trial lawyer at a tiny law firm---let alone has never held the position of a prosecutor.

This is objective inexperience. But, to hell with all of that, let's put him in charge of representing the US in legal matters.




Did you forget you voted for Kamala? Why would I give you an educated response with your hypocrisy?
Because I asked you for any professional qualifications that justify your support of Gaetz as AG?

She wouldn't have nominated a guy that practiced for somewhere between 2-8 years.

How about an educated response? Ignore Hegseth. Please tell me how Gaetz is qualified for AG? I'm willing to ignore the House investigation and the alleged improprieties. Educate me, please, on how he's qualified professionally for this position.

Owned the libs is the only qualification needed. Says the party about to be in total control. It's so weird, do I laugh at how they've never been able to hold Trump accountable to anything, or do I just laugh at how it may dawn on them what an unaccountable president can do?

You have to really question a political movement within a party that is traditionally focused on accountability, where the movement is all about not being accountable. But I guess just get your popcorn and enjoy the show. Will they hate Trump like they hate Bush in retrospect years later? Does it even matter?

Gaetz (surely) and Hegseth (most likely) are just the sacrificial lambs for the benefit of the rest of this unqualified cabinet to allow the Republican Senators to save face. Can't wait to see who Trump's preferred candidates are for AG and Defense Secretary. As the MAGAs say, buckle in! DEI is bad--glad we're fixing that with unqualified (mostly) white men that bend the knee.

If Trump forces this through with heavy handedness. We might see two outcomes:
1) The press (or lack there of) will cover his inadequacies while MAGA loyalists dismiss them as fake news.
2) Trump's new favorite anchor, whoever that is at the moment at fox news, criticizes the guy and he fires him.

Theres always the possibility that Trump reconsiders the appointment. But if we are considering that, why is Trump nominating him in the first place?
Im betting at the end of the day its loyalty. Which as a leader is important. But if of your loyal fellows, Gaetz is the top gem for AG..... whew buddy hey Trump voters, whats up with that?

Ukraine and the point of view that Russia aggression is ito protect against nato eastern expansion

Vietnam was when the cold war was running in a very different global perspective. The weapons of mass destruction talking point for Iraq was complete BS.

Most of the NATO expansion bringing in Baltic countries and Sweden has been in reaction to Russia aggression. Russian leadership made to move to break up the USSR. So now they have changed their mind and want everything back?

By this rational the US would return our lands to England, Mexico and France, not to mention the Indian Nations who should have 1st claim
We traded the containment of communism for the containment of terrorism for the containment of Russian imperial ambitions. The rationale never really changes.

The Soviets and later the Russians were informally told that NATO wasn’t going to expand eastward. Yeltsin brought it up in the 90s. Was Russian aggression on the menu then? No, they were weak, and Clinton pushed NATO on them. It’s naive to present NATO as this innocent organization and not an extension of American military power. Nobody would allow a geopolitical enemy to dominate its neighborhood, “defensive” alliance or not, and the Russians have acted in a more or less rational way against that possibility. Ukraine is of considerably more importance to Russia than Finland.

Why wouldn’t they have invaded Kazakhstan if it were purely about getting the Soviet gang back together? It would have been a thousand times easier
