independent.co.uk

Fox News hosts have begun to question President-elect Donald Trump's nomination of Matt Gaetz for attorney general. They suggest it may not be a good idea due to ongoing investigations into Gaetz's alleged misconduct, which could distract from the transition. Following a leaked document about a federal inquiry into Gaetz, Fox & Friends co-hosts expressed concerns about the potential negative impact on Trump's administration. They noted that the House Ethics Committee probe could overshadow Gaetz's nomination. Other Fox News personalities echoed these concerns, warning that Gaetz's controversial past and current legal issues could harm Trump's political capital. The New York Post also criticized the nomination, calling it "dreadful" and highlighting Gaetz's lack of ethics.
