Matt Gaetz praises Trump's AG replacement pick Pam Bondi
Former Rep. Matt Gaetz is praising Donald Trump's choice of fellow Floridian Pam Bondi to replace him as the attorney general nominee.
Gaetz said Bondi, the former attorney general of Florida, is a "stellar choice" to serve as the nation's top law enforcement officer.
The two worked together when Gaetz served in Florida's legislature.
“She’s a proven litigator, an inspiring leader and a champion for all Americans,” Gaetz said in a post on X. “She will bring the needed reforms to DOJ.”
His endorsement came hours after he withdrew his nomination for AG in the face of opposition in the Senate.
