Jonathan Turley Calls Matt Gaetz Nomination the ‘100,000-Volt Option’

We've been keeping an eye on President-elect Donald Trump's nomination of Matt Gaetz to be attorney general. There have been a lot of freakouts — NBC News' Ken Dilanian says insiders are "horrified" by the "mind-boggling" pick — and not all Republican senators are on board with the choice. Federalist co-founder Ben Domenech on Thursday called Gaetz an abhorrent "sex trafficking drug addicted piece of s**t" who has "less principles than your average fentanyl addicted hobo."

So we thought it might be worth checking in with someone a little more level-headed; law professor Jonathan Turley calls Gaetz "the 100,000-volt option" if Trump is trying to defibrillate the Justice Department.

To repeat it for Dilanian, the president-elect "has a legitimate grievance with the Justice Department," and so does Gaetz.

The reason Democrats are so concerned Trump will "weaponize" the Justice Department is because they set the precedent.

Is Gaetz too big a shock to the system for the RINOs in the Senate? Plenty of people are suggesting Trump will adjourn both houses of Congress and make Gaetz a recess appointment.
