Many Senate Republicans, though, allegedly loathe the thought of Gaetz being unleashed to drain the Deep State swamp as Attorney General.
The two most left-wing GOPers in the conference, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine have already announced their opposition to Gaetz.
But the number of silent no’s is allegedly far higher. According to a report in The Wall Street Journal published on Friday, as many as 30 RINOS have decided to spit in Trump’s face and vote no on Gaetz’s nomination when it comes before the Senate.
“People are p***ed,” one source told the Journal.
From the Journal:
One person familiar with the conversations among Republican senators said “significantly more than four” of them are opposed, which would be enough to tank Gaetz’s chances. “People are p*ssed,” the person said.
Other estimates ranged from more than a dozen Republican “no” votes to more than 30. “It won’t even be close,” another person said.
RINO senators are also determined to make the process as painful as possible for Gaetz. John Cornyn of Texas told reporters on Thursday that he “absolutely” wants to review the House Ethics Committee’s investigation of Matt Gaetz.
