Summary
Donald Trump has appointed Congressman Matt Gaetz as his pick for attorney general, prioritizing loyalty over traditional qualifications.
Known for defending Trump against investigations like the Russia probe, Gaetz would oversee the Department of Justice (DOJ) and other agencies he has previously criticized as “weaponized” against conservatives.
Gaetz’s appointment signals Trump’s intent to use the DOJ for potential retribution against perceived enemies, alarming Democrats and even some Republicans.
Critics warn Gaetz’s lack of DOJ experience and partisan stance could threaten impartial law enforcement in the U.S.
Why does he look so weird in every picture? He looks like Butthead.
Pretty sure dude had plastic surgery to lift his eyebrows and smooth his forehead wrinkles.
OMG yes, the hair does it. All he needs is the braces.
Looks like a caricature of Jack Nicholson
That’s the new trumpster look! There’s the old 65-year-old white haired red-faced guy but now there’s the new 40-year-old ‘check out my cool haircut and tough beard’ guy. The DJ/ JD look.
