(3,982 posts)Senator Gaetz was trending on X, formerly known as Twitter, within minutes of Gaetz announcing he was removing himself from consideration for attorney general. One Florida Senate seat will likely be open for appointment by DeSantis as Trump announced he is nominating Sen. Marco Rubio to be secretary of state. DeSantis could technically appoint Gaetz to that seat as he has no current role in Congress, but DeSantis said on Monday he has already received strong interest from several possible candidates, and we continue to gather names of additional candidates and conduct preliminary vetting. He said vetting would continue through the coming weeks and he expects a selection to be made in early January.

I wasn't trying to rain on your parade, as it were. Sorry if it came off that way.
