Gaetz Betting Underdog to Get Confirmed as AG
The oddsmakers were more accurate than the pollsters when it came to the 2024 Election, and they're making another bold bid on what will transpire with Donald Trump's pick for America's Attorney General.
"Gaetz's enemies stretch far and wide across the GOP, and his connection to scandals will make the confirmation process extremely uncomfortable," BetOnline political analyst and oddsmaker Paul Krishnamury said. "He may be a sacrificial lamb for GOP Senators, for whom opposing this nomination provides cover to waive through other controversial appointments."
Will the GOP Senators take a public stance against Trump here?
BetOnline.ag's odds certainly suggest so as Matt Gaetz is a hefty underdog to be confirmed for the AG post. Tulsi Gabbard is a massive favorite to be confirmed, while RFK is a slight favorite to be confirmed for any cabinet position.
In other governmental reshuffling news, Marco Rubio's replacement for Florida Senator will be appointed by Governor Ron DeSantis. The current favorite...Lara Trump.
