Putin probably told Trump to pick somebody that's lower profile and more destructive.

That report must have been something
Finally some decent news.
Why? The ONLY thing People are saying is he Raped and Trafficked CHILDREN! If he DIDNT then why is he Worried about the Report being Public?
Unsurprising. I still believe Trump throwing his name out there was a way for him to resign and kill the report.
Oh interesting thought, I hadn't thought of that. I'm not sure why Trump cares enough about Gaetz at this point to do something so...elaborate, but I was wondering if he really needed to resign so far ahead of any confirmation or even the inauguration.
Could be a lot of reasons but it would boil down to backroom deals. Maybe mutual assured destruction, maybe manipulated by someone (everyone talks about how easy he is to manipulate), or maybe a foreign leader has his fingers in the pie and told him to. Hell, maybe they've got underage women in common and Trump didn't want it coming out. The guy is one of Florida's reps and we all know where Trump lives.
My assumption is that he wouldn't have had to resign until there was an official confirmation process, and certainly not before Trump is sworn in. Anything could happen between now and then.
Except he resigned from this last term, so, correct me if im wrong, but, I'm pretty sure he's back in, in January, for the next term he was just re elected for.
His resignation included a statement about not returning for the next term.
Well, then, I suppose op is probably right.
I wouldn't go that far. The OP is known for wildly speculating while drunk.
That's basically what the mainstream media is doing anyway.
I mean that's literally the only thing that came of the whole situation. It's reasonable to believe that the goal was achieved.
I've been wondering about that too. Maybe? There's another Republican saying he's ready to step in but I'm not sure how Florida works. I think the gators decide.
They do. Although, we call them swamp cats.
Alright now let's see that report
I'm betting the House GOP leveraged that report staying secret as a way to get him to withdraw.
Genius right here!
I just want MTG to burn it all down. Come on Marge, let that sunlight in!
He needs to withdraw from life. Just off yourself dude. You have no potential benefit to humanity left, stop using our resources. You are a bloght on this planet.
(Copy paste to every other Republican tbh)
