Summary
Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) warned Republicans against opposing Donald Trump’s nomination of Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) as attorney general, stating that MAGA supporters would target their jobs if they break ranks.
Tuberville defended Trump’s right to choose his team, urging senators to “vote with President Trump.”
Gaetz, who recently resigned from Congress, is a divisive figure within the GOP, having faced FBI and House Ethics investigations over alleged misconduct.
Some Republicans are openly concerned about the nomination and are deliberating their next steps.
The same Tuberville that held up more than 300 of Biden’s non-political military promotions now thinks nominations should just get a rubber stamp?
I mean if you were hoping for some gotcha on them being hypocrites you should know by now that they don’t care and neither do their supporters.
Yes. He would have zero issue with your comment. He would smile. He is not attempting to be logically consistent
Of course. You don’t expect them to play by the same rules they try to impose on everyone else, do you?
Mitch McConnell has openly acknowledged, admits to, and embraces the hypocrisy as a political tool to be wielded as necessary.
And America’s voters have proven that tool to be extremely effective.
Yes. They don’t care. Stop wasting your time pointing out their overt hypocrisy. It’s exactly what they want.

Being moral or consistent is viewed as a weakness for the qons.
