Bret Stephens suggests that the appointments like Gaetz as attorney general or Kennedy as health secretary seem intentionally provocative, aimed at inciting outrage rather than being strategically beneficial.
Gail Collins indicates that exposing Gaetz through ethics reports could reveal troubling behaviors, yet in a non-typical political climate, this may only serve to elevate Trump's controversial picks.
Bret warns that Trump's possible recess appointments could lead to a constitutional crisis, especially if the Republican Senate leadership passively allows such tactics.
Gail questions whether Trump's nominations, particularly Gaetz, are distractions from even worse selections on his list that Senate Republicans might have to manage.
