    I originally thought that but I really don't think trump would do that unless he really thought that Gaetz would make it through

    I don't think there's much reason to think otherwise. He gets to slink away quietly and the official reason he's no longer a congressman is because he resigned for the AG job. But...come on.

    The question I have is does he remain US Representative-Elect? Can he take that seat in January? Could this series of events result in him starting "fresh" as a freshman representative (i.e., the info would remain dead)?

    don't know the rules, but that would seem like a crazy loophole. 
    Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall

    This doesn’t count as the Senate’s scalp.

    You mean did he only resign from the current congress, not the next?  I can’t imagine that the rules would accommodate that action. Interesting question though.

    Matt Gaetz pisses off the libs. Maybe even to irrational levels.

    I'd be curious to see whether anyone has any other positive quality they can state about. Is he particularly smart? Is there anything that makes him an excellent candidate for any public job? Or is his entire persona of "pissing off the libs" his only redeeming quality? (Same question for Bobert and MTG.)

    I think he's fairly intelligent but he is a career politician. Very little real life experience and no way that he has any business being AG.

    This is exactly what my wife said when he resigned. Said he won't get confirmed, he and trump have to know it, so it's their way of getting rid of him.

    Does he? To me, it seems like the libs treat him as the unserious clown that he is.
