Trump nominates MAGA congressman Matt Gaetz as surprise attorney general pick

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : "He is a Champion for the Constitution and the Rule of Law," Trump added.
40% : The 42-year-old GOP lawmaker and Trump loyalist from Florida "has distinguished himself in Congress through his focus on achieving desperately needed reform at the Department of Justice," Trump said in a statement on Wednesday.
31% : Smith has signaled that he is prepared to resign from the role following his years-long investigations, grand jury proceedings and protracted courtroom battles, as Trump said he would fire the special counsel "within two seconds" of entering office.
20% : Gaetz has also called for investigations into Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis of Georgia, whose office is prosecuting a case against Trump and more than a dozen of his allies for their attempts to overturn election results in the state.
7% : Trump said Gaetz will end "weaponized government," as the former president baselessly accuses President Joe Biden's administration and Garland of launching politically motivated investigations to derail his presidency.
