Statement by President-elect Donald J. Trump on the Decision by Matt Gaetz to Withdraw His Nomination for Attorney General

November 21, 2024

I greatly appreciate the recent efforts of Matt Gaetz in seeking approval to be Attorney General. He was doing very well but, at the same time, did not want to be a distraction for the Administration, for which he has much respect. Matt has a wonderful future, and I look forward to watching all of the great things he will do!
