Sen Kevin Cramer on Matt Gaetz for AG “I have to noodle that one a little while. I’ve been pretty bullish [on Trump’s picks].”
Sen Cornyn doesn’t say whether he supports Gaetz as AG or not, says senate will do its job of advise and consent. “I don’t know the man other than just his public persona.”

On Fox News, Rick Scott blames Republican leadership for bad midterms performance, saying they "caved in on the debt ceiling, caved in on the gun deal, caved in on a fake infrastructure deal," which made things harder for R candidates
He also blamed Mitch McConnell for not releasing a Republican agenda. (Scott released a GOP agenda that included reauthorization votes for Social Security and Medicare that Gov. Sununu said was part of what made it hard for R candidates to win in NH.)
