Gaetz exit places highlight on different Trump nominees accused of sexual misconduct

WASHINGTON –
President-elect Donald Trump’s willingness to decide on cupboard members with histories of alleged sexual misconduct threw his transition plans astray this week.

Matt Gaetz, Trump’s choose for legal professional basic, dropped out of consideration on Thursday amid mounting questions over allegations of getting intercourse with an underage lady and illicit drug use. He has denied wrongdoing.

His withdrawal underscores the chance of Trump’s method to staffing his second administration. He seems to be emboldened by his political comeback and prepared to problem the Senate Republicans to again some unorthodox picks.
