Why Gaetz nomination was a great pick for everyone.
1) the Senate likely won’t confirm him
2) he already resigned from the House
Trump probably wants him. If he gets in Trump and Gaetz win.
If he doesn’t get in at least he’ll know Trump wanted him and he can take pride in that. Which will solidify Gaetz’s loyalty.
But win or lose Gaetz in no longer in the House to cause trouble for both sides.
If Gaetz loses - he goes on TV or his own podcast and stays in the public eye without all the complications and oversight of an elected position. So in the end - he wins.
