Matt Gaetz’s tenure as Donald Trump’s nominee for Attorney General lasted just 8 days. It was derailed by the numerous investigations of sexual misconduct and illegal drug use against him, most recently a second accusation that he had sex with a 17-year-old in 2017, when he was 35. And so it is he withdrew on Thursday.
But on Thursday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” Kimmel identified a different problem that perhaps Trump could have avoided. The incoming president — reminder, a convicted felon who literally attempted to overthrow the government after losing the 2020 election — did things “in the wrong order.”
“First, you nominate Diddy for Attorney General,” Kimmel joked.
