President-elect Donald Trump said Thursday evening he plans to nominate former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as his newest pick for U.S. attorney general.
“Americans dodged a bullet with Gaetz’s withdrawal but Trump’s second choice for Attorney General is no better,” said state party Chair Nikki Fried. “Don’t forget — Pam Bondi tried to take healthcare away from millions of Floridians. She was the ring leader in the attempt to sue the Affordable Care Act out of existence and overturn the pre-existing conditions rule. She filed the original suit and was the lead plaintiff on the case seeking to dismantle affordable care. When Donald Trump says he’s going to end the ACA, believe him now that he’s nominated Pam Bondi to finish the job."
Only the “best.” She’s more competent than Gaetz, which is worse.
Standard Trump playbook in action; nominate the noisy bad one, get it shot down, now slide the competent and legitimately dangerous one in under the door which seems “reasonable” by comparison.
