Geraldo Rivera criticizes Trump's nomination of Matt Gaetz as attorney general

Geraldo Rivera expressed strong disapproval of President-elect Donald Trump's nomination of Matt Gaetz as attorney general. Rivera described the choice as "horrible" and "creepy," stating he was shocked by the decision. Rivera, a longtime friend of Trump, criticized Gaetz's qualifications and noted his ongoing investigations. He predicted that Senate Republicans would not confirm Gaetz for the position.
