Can Matt Gaetz return to Congress? He says he won't.

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida says he doesn't intend to return to Congress in January, after resigning from his seat and withdrawing from consideration as U.S. attorney general. 

Gaetz announced his withdrawal Thursday, citing the distraction his impending nomination was causing, and President-elect Donald Trump soon afterward said former Florida attorney general Pam Bondi would be his new pick for the job. But Gaetz won reelection to his U.S. House seat earlier this month, so there were some questions about whether he was considering a return to Congress in January. 

But Gaetz told conservative personality Charlie Kirk on Friday that he doesn't intend to go back to Congress, though he vowed to continue to fight for Trump and do "whatever he asks of me."
