"Gaetz is a buffoon," White states bluntly in an analysis posted on his personal webpage.
"He has absolutely no qualifications to run the Department of Justice.
Can he wander around firing everyone? Yes.
Does he understand how the Department of Justice works in a way that would allow him to maximize its potential for abuse? No.
Is he smart enough to figure it out? Also no.
Is he charismatic enough to persuade insiders to help him use it effectively? Very much no.
Gaetz as Attorney General will do petty, flamboyant, stupid things in clumsy ways.
Some of those things will be very bad.
But clown shoes are preferable to jackboots."
