David Jolly on Trump’s AG Replacement Pick Pam Bondi: ‘We Should Breathe a Little Sigh of Relief’

EXCERPT:

JOLLY: “Sure. And I know Pam Bondi and I know Matt Gaetz. And I would tell you, these are two very different nominations. And we should breathe a little sigh of relief because the strong differences between Matt Gaetz and Pam Bondi are this: Pam Bondi is eminently qualified to run the department. Lisa is right. No — no DoJ experience, but she is 8 years as Attorney General of the state of Florida. She’s eminently qualified. She’s also a very likable person. I say that not because I have a a personal friendship, but Democrats and Republicans alike considered her to be a professional. And so I think she’ll do very well in the nomination here. And she also hasn’t been accused credibly of sexual misconduct or sex trafficking. So what this sets up, though, is really fascinating, Alicia. And it’s this: This nomination hearing now becomes specifically not about the fitness of the nominee, like we were discussing with Matt Gaetz, but about Donald Trump’s view of the Department of Justice and about Pam Bondi’s willingness to execute on Donald Trump’s agenda.”
