        Because Gaetz is her bestie and she knows he’s in danger of not getting the votes to get confirmed. The hardcore trumpists will absolutely use blackmail to get what they want. And they don’t want to lose face by having a trump pick get defeated early on. But yeah, she should have leaned on them privately, not in public. She’s not the smartest.
