Matt Gaetz withdraws from Attorney General consideration amid misconduct allegations

Matt Gaetz has withdrawn from consideration for Attorney General amid ongoing allegations of serious misconduct, including sex crimes. His resignation highlights fractures within Trump's coalition, as many Republicans struggle to defend him against the ethics investigation. The situation reflects a shift in dynamics since Trump's election, with internal conflicts becoming more visible. Trump's approach of pitting factions against each other may weaken his support as scandals like Gaetz's emerge. This development suggests that resistance to Trump's agenda is still possible. The ongoing scrutiny of his nominees could create opportunities to challenge his influence and attract disillusioned voters from within the Republican Party.
