Geraldo Rivera Says 'I Threw Up In My Mouth' Over This Donald Trump Cabinet Pick
HuffPost
“I think it is a horrible, creepy choice," said the longtime friend of the president-elect.
Geraldo Rivera on Thursday shared his visceral response to President-elect Donald Trump’s nomination of the now-former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) as attorney general.
“When I heard that Matt Gaetz was picked to be attorney general, I threw up in my mouth,” Rivera said on NewsNation in his role as the channel’s correspondent-at-large.
“I think it is a horrible, creepy choice. I have no idea why he did it,” added the former Fox News personality, who despite being a longtime friend of Trump ended up endorsing Democratic candidate Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.
Trump’s other picks are “controversial” but can be defended, Rivera continued, before pointing out that Gaetz would as attorney general have “access to the files” of the investigations into himself.
Gaetz “is the epitome of everything that is rotten in Washington” and is “privileged, entitled, backstabbing,” Rivera said later in video shared online by Mediaite.
