Matt Gaetz faces uphill battle for attorney general confirmation after past insults to senators

MSNBC's "Morning Joe" aired a supercut showing Matt Gaetz insulting several senators whose votes he needs for his confirmation as attorney general. The clips highlighted Gaetz's past attacks on lawmakers, including Lisa Murkowski and Mitch McConnell. Gaetz's confirmation is complicated by ongoing allegations of wrongdoing, which he denies. Despite these issues, President-elect Donald Trump remains committed to Gaetz as his nominee. Co-hosts noted Gaetz's unpopularity among colleagues, emphasizing that he has insulted at least eight senators recently. This history may hinder his chances of securing the necessary support for his nomination.
