Senate Republicans express doubts about Matt Gaetz's confirmation as attorney general

A majority of Senate Republicans, including some leaders, doubt former Rep. Matt Gaetz will be confirmed as attorney general. Many believe there are not enough votes to support his nomination, with some estimating around 30 Republicans view him as unqualified. Despite this skepticism, President-elect Donald Trump's team remains optimistic about Gaetz's confirmation. They are moving forward with plans for the Justice Department, including the nomination of Todd Blanche for a key position. The House Ethics Committee is considering whether to release a report on Gaetz, who has faced investigations related to serious allegations. Some Republican senators want to review the report before any confirmation vote, highlighting concerns about Gaetz's qualifications.
