Another Trump pick drops out….
Just being Trump’s pick don’t mean you get a free pass…
From the RightWingNuts either, eh?
“Over the past several days, as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in, I’ve concluded that I must respectfully withdraw from consideration,” he wrote. “There is more work to be done for the citizens of Hillsborough County and a lot of initiatives I am committed to fulfilling.”….
…
Chronister is the second of Trump’s planned administration nominees or appointees to withdraw in the month since the election; the first was former Florida congressman Matt Gaetz, whom Trump had planned to nominate for attorney general. Gaetz, who has been accused of engaging in sexual misconduct with a minor, withdrew after it became clear Senate Republicans would not support his nomination. (Hegseth and Gaetz have denied the accusations against them.)
Update….
Rep. Anthony D’Esposito (R-NY) is lobbying to become Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the Drug Enforcement Agency after losing his reelection bid last month, Axios reports.
Trump’s initial pick for the role, Chad Chronister, withdrew from consideration Tuesday under entrenched opposition from the right.
Note….
D’Esposito has had some bad marks on his record that probabaly won’t bother Trump….
