Lawrence: Matt Gaetz cannot possibly survive a Senate confirmation hearing - 10 min

&t=194s

'MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell discusses Elon Musk’s sting of lobbying failures after publicly lobbying for Senator Rick Scott for Majority Leader (Republicans elected Senator John Thune as their new leader), Howard Lutnick for Secretary of the Treasury (Donald Trump chose him to lead the Commerce Department), and now, Matt Gaetz who, according to The New York Times, Donald Trump doesn’t believe is going to get confirmed.'

My words: Thank God for Lawrence

You can’t make this up - 🙃

Gaetz walking down hall of Congress offices outing Republicans against him - calling them out for insider trading.
