WASHINGTON – Former Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida has announced his decision to withdraw his name from consideration for the position of Attorney General in President-elect Donald Trump’s administration. Gaetz, a Republican, cited the desire to avoid further distraction from the Trump/Vance Transition team’s work as the reason for his withdrawal.

The announcement follows what Gaetz described as “excellent meetings with Senators,” where he received feedback and support. Despite the momentum he felt, Gaetz acknowledged that his confirmation process was becoming a contentious issue in Washington, potentially delaying the establishment of Trump’s Department of Justice.

Gaetz expressed his continued support for Donald Trump, stating his commitment to help make Trump “the most successful President in history.” He also mentioned his honor in being nominated to lead the Department of Justice and expressed confidence in Trump’s ability to “Save America.”

The decision comes amid ongoing allegations of sexual impropriety, which have made Gaetz a controversial figure. Although the Republicans are set to hold a 53-47 majority in the U.S. Senate next year, it was uncertain whether there would be sufficient support from within the party to confirm his nomination.

This move by Gaetz to step back highlights the complexities of the confirmation process for key government positions, particularly when nominees face significant allegations. The withdrawal aims to expedite the readiness of the incoming administration’s Justice Department, emphasizing the need for a fully operational team from the outset of Trump’s term.
