gaetz had some house ethics problems he's innocent due to getting tricked and hence not getting charged, the problem is the ethics report would probably get released if he was actually picked so what happened is this > gaetz gets the nomination  > immediately resigns from the house > house probe has to stop because he's not involved there anymore > but if he gets to the senate confirmation they'll release it anyway > trump does him a favour and gets him out of all that and secure the pam bondi pick as she seems more "legit" and will be easily confirmed there 4d chess
