Note: Here’s what I wrote at Law Dork the day of Gaetz’s nomination. www.lawdork.com/p/trump-anno...
I want to put a possibility out there: Donald Trump does not care about people. He does not respect norms and has already made clear he plans to push even the Republican-led Senate next year on its treatment of his nominees. Does Trump care if Gaetz’s nomination fails? Not likely. I imagine that Trump will have someone in running the Justice Department on day one who is serving in an acting role under the Federal Vacancies Reform Act of 1988 or a Justice Department-specific line of succession. There will be no Sally Yates this time — but remember Matthew Whitaker? With that in mind, I would point to two worrying possibilities: A failed Gaetz nomination might help Hegseth, Gabbard, or any others get through the Senate.1 It also could similarly serve to allow an extremist pick for attorney general who is, in comparison, much more qualified for the role but potentially much more dangerous in the role.
