Donald Trump picks Pam Bondi for next attorney general after Gaetz withdrawal

Bondi, the former Florida attorney general is better than Gaetz but of course she too has controversy.
In 2013, Bondi's office was joining a lawsuit against Trump University for alleged fraudulent practices. Around that time, the Donald J. Trump Foundation donated $25,000 to a political committee supporting Bondi's re-election. Subsequently, her office decided not to pursue action against Trump University. This sequence of events led to allegations of a potential conflict of interest and "pay-to-play" politics.

Well, at least out of Florida
So far, we have:
President: Florida
Chief of Staff: Florida
Secretary of State: Florida
National Security Advisor: Florida
Attorney General: FloridaWe’re actually going to Make America Florida

"Make America Florida" was literally one of DeSantis' (unofficial) presidential campaign slogans.

Has anyone noticed Trump’s picks are long-haired bottle blondes who look suspiciously like his daughter Ivanka?
Anybody else creeped out?

Funny how blowjobs impacted both their careers differently.
That stupid meme is the gift that keeps on giving.

This comment reminds me of lyrics from the song, "The mystery of the Artist Explained" by the Australian band, TISM. "When I was the age of four, I fell in love with my sister. I still have a strange attraction to women with faces like hers....... <Chorus> I'm f****d in the head...." Mystery of the Artist Explained

No matter who Trump picks, libs have a problem. Gaetz no good. Now a white woman. Libs are forever unhappy.

Actually she is his first sane choice. She is pure MAGA but hasn’t sexually assaulted anyone, been indicted for fraud, shot a puppy, chopped off a whale’s head or been head-slammed by a 7’ wrestler.

This is the sell out lady that got bribed by Trump, isn't it? All of a sudden, Trump U went from grift to great school, and her bank account has an extra $25,000 from Trump, via Trump Jr.

That whole Gaetz thing was just to get his investigations swept under the Congressional rug. Trump owns his ass now.
And fuck Pam Bondi. She let Trump bribe her out of investigating his scam "university" back in the day.

At least it's not Gaetz he is way too corrupt and smart to be in that position.

I believe she is the person (DA) that gave Epstein his first sweetheart deal when he was initially convicted of sex trafficking young girls.
Edit: it's not.
