He was all bark and no bite, unfortunately.

Yes House, I stand corrected. He was a bulldog. Never forget him defending trumps 2 Supreme Court justices when they were getting railroaded

So sorry you are "sick and tired". If you can't see what a useful idiot Gaetz is, I'm not sure what to tell you. I get you believe the main stream media is out to get the Trump fan boys, but you have to do so incredibly stupid sh** to be accused of trafficking minors.

If Merrick Garland had done his job, Matt Gaetz would not be replacing him.

Such a bad choice. I mean damn, you've got better options than to try and waste time with this pick. Hire Trey Gowdy. Poor judgment imo. I'm shocked his chief of staff and family are on board with this bad decision.
How do you know this is a waste of time pick?
What makes Gaetz a bad option in general?
I mean…y'all can keep shelling out talking points that are nothing more than gaslighting, but it doesn't make your opinions valid…
He is majorly divisive and single handily almost wreaked the House with the bull**** he pulled. He's got baggage piled up around him. It'll be difficult for him to win over the senate with what he pulled.

Prostitution has always been around and should be legal. And we are stupid for infantilizing 17, 18, and 19 year olds. They are the backbone of our fighting forces and all throughout history have been married and bearing children.
Something about young love hooking up is understandable, whereas an older guy preying on an underage female is creepy and downright wrong.
Edit: Just curious what age gap do you think is appropriate for a 17, 19, 21, or 25 year old?
17 year olds are children. Not legally but they're still children. It's gross and there are character issues for a man over the age of thirty being with one.
They are literally not children

Better pull up a lounge chair and take a nap. They don't have any. If they did, Gaetz would have been gone long ago. At a minimum, something would have been released to the press.FireAg said:Timberwolf said:FireAg said:Timberwolf said:

So? How much of that "baggage" is made up bull**** because people don't want someone who isn't deep state/status quo actually cleaning **** up?
I'm still waiting for someone to post any actual evidence that Gaetz is a child sex trafficker…where's the evidence?

It's almost like people are completely blind to what has been going on in this county... Folks think lawfare and gaslighting is specific to the anti-Trump crowd? Think again...it is an epidemic that is plaguing this nation...Ag87H2O said:Better pull up a lounge chair and take a nap. They don't have any. If they did, Gaetz would have been gone long ago.

Convenient timing to resign his seat. Perhaps it's something, perhaps it's nothing.Silent For Too Long said:The Kraken said:

Yeah man. He was appointed AG of the United States of America so he could dodge an ethics report.
That's totally how things work in reality.

Lol, he was investigated and cleared by Merrick Garland. But sure, the House is covering up a crime.
I don't care if it's a crime. I just wish he weren't a sorry-ass human being.

Maybe this is Trumps way of helping the GOP get rid of Gaetz all together?
Resigns from Congress, special election to replace his safe GOP seat, doesn't get confirmed, DeSantis DOES NOT appoint him to replace Rubio but instead someone the GOP leaders want.
