President-elect Donald Trump has made an excellent choice in selecting Pam Bondi as the next US Attorney General. She has proven herself as an outstanding legal talent, having served both as a prosecutor and as the Sunshine State's Attorney General for eight years. She is a real leader who will advocate for all Americans and restore justice and security to our nation. If confirmed by the Senate, Bondi will be the first Republican woman to serve as America's Attorney General.

Florida pols react to Donald Trump picking Pam Bondi for Attorney General

We should all fear Pam Bondi as US Attorney General because she is competent. She differs from Matt Gaetz in that regard, with his dubious moral background and all. Gaetz would most likely have screwed things up. Bondi will not. Democrats may disagree with her ideologically, but she knows what she's doing. She understands law and justice. That's why she is a more dangerous and effective pick than Matt Gaetz.

Here's How We Know Pam Bondi Is a Great Choice for Attorney General

Like Matt Gaetz, Pam Bondi is a Trump loyalist who is prepared to protect him in every regard. Unlike Gaetz, however, she is competent — meaning she will actually be able to implement Trump's concerning agenda. Democrats may disagree with her ideologically, but she knows what she's doing. She understands law and justice. That's why she is a more dangerous and effective pick than Gaetz.
