Following former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz’s announcement that he was dropping his nomination to become the next attorney general, President-elect Donald Trump was quick to praise Gaetz, confident he will do “great things” in the future.

Gaetz’s decision was made following “excellent meetings” he conducted Wednesday with senators. He opted to drop his nomination due to “unfairly becoming a distraction” for the incoming Trump administration. The former Florida lawmaker also stressed that Trump’s Department of Justice should be prepared to get to work “on day 1” and that he is still “fully committed” to Trump’s success in the White House.
