The only way to stop the nomination is for a Republican sentator on the relevant committee to vote no, or for 4 Republican Senators to vote no if it leaves committee. What are the odds of that?
Well I’m certain Susan Collins will do her dog-and-pony show of pretending to care about women again, and Murkowski will probably also object. It would be amusing, given the bad blood between them, if McCarthy had any allies in the Senate who would knife Gaetz.

Very likely. This guy does not have the support and multiple Republican senators have said they won’t confirm him.
Same as the odds of someone playing a Change of Heart card on Trump
