Polymarket traders show only a 28% chance that Matt Gaetz will be confirmed as Attorney General in a potential Trump administration. This reflects ongoing doubts about his support among Senate Republicans. Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy has publicly stated that Gaetz is unlikely to be confirmed, citing his divisive history within the party. Gaetz's nomination is controversial, especially amid ongoing investigations into his conduct. Gaetz has proposed radical changes, including allowing federal taxes to be paid in Bitcoin and dismantling the Federal Reserve. His nomination aligns with Trump's plans to reform the Justice Department.
