The Florida congressman, however, told NBC News that his only political goal at the moment is getting Donald Trump elected president in 2024.
His first act will be a bill that lowers the age of consent to 12.
Or just removes the idea of consent altogether.
Florida sexual assaults drop to 0!
Like Russia legalizing domestic violence: “Stop domestic violence with this one trick.”
Is it also a weird trick?
Q What is the difference between Congress and prison?
A Matt Gaetz still has friends in prison.
How the fuck is still employed in government and not in prison?
He’s my Congressman, so I’ve been following along.
Not enough, or really any, evidence was the issue. They couldn’t summon any witnesses either. The guy he was tied up with, forgot his name, was expected to flip on Gaetz once convicted. He didn’t.
The young girl involved wasn’t willing to testify either. Prosecution didn’t really want her anyway since she has started an OnlyFans page and they felt that would hurt her credibility.
And that’s that. It sucks, but he’s free and clear unless something changes.
Shouldn’t publicly venmoing a pimp w/ the comment naming a 17 year olds sex worker and that sex worker receiving payment from said pimp minutes later be all the evidence they need?
If our system was fair, prosecutors would do everything in their power to highlight this strong evidence, even if they believe a jury might acquit on technicalities. Because even when politician criminals are aqcuitted, they still have to answer to the public. Pretending a technicality stops a DA from going forward is our criminals justice system being complicit when it’s the wealthy doing the crimes.
You say that’s what happened? Then that does indeed sound like solid evidence! Yet professional lawyers/prosecutors couldn’t find what you’ve found? Or at least not enough to bring him to trial?
Flip it over, pretend you believe the election was stolen from Trump. Yet in 60-some cases, only one was advanced, all for lack of evidence? Yet you have more evidence than a former President of the US can summon? See how silly that sounds?
Maybe a weak analogy?
Either you believe the reporting on the public venmos or you don’t. But don’t pretend like this is similar to Trumps fairly transparent lies about election fraud where he can’t even name the fraud.
Look, our media is broken and Trump is exploiting the need for coverage to spread his lies. It’s ignorant to think Republican voters aren’t in on it as well.
And if you believe the rich in this country get treated just as harshly as the poor, I doubt I can convince you otherwise.
Innocent until proven guilty works both ways (un)fortunately
Matt is unfit for any public office/society. He is a very weird man.
(Edited)
He is unfit for society
If he’s elected Governor then Florida deserves everything it will get more of - mediocre school system, insane insurance market, and poor Healthcare options.
He’s not a solutions guy. He’s a loudmouth headline guy. He’s DeSantis on stupider pills.
I only get one vote here and it won’t be for him. Sorry to hear I deserve it.
Hyperbole on my part, of course. Those who vote for him deserve it. My apologies.
He’s an adult Beavis if Beavis was raised with too much money and a powerful dad.
You wouldn’t think someone as unlikeable as Gaetz would be elected governor of Florida, but then you wouldn’t think someone as unlikeable as DeSantis would be elected governor of Florida.
but then you wouldn’t think someone as unlikeable as DeSantis would be elected
…and re- elected. :(

He actually kinda ran a bit of a different platform when he was initially elected so that’s not really a fair comment.
Indeed he did:
DeSantis says Floridians can’t ‘monkey this up’ by electing African-American Democrat as governor
I’m sure he’d be very welcome as Floridas Governor. He’s a slimy, sleazy, lieing, raping, sex trafficking piece of human garbage so he’ll fit right in. Oh! And he worships the cult of Trump which is strong among the morons who move to Florida.
Do better, Florida.
Florida Man is trying. He really is.
With the current situation in Florida, I’d say Gaetz has a pretty good shot at winning, unfortunately.
He was 100% in a minor.
For them that’s a feature, not a bug
Which rapist is he? I can’t keep them straight (neither can they SNAP!). He the mouth breather who adopted the pool boi?
Here’s a handy guide to GOP sex offenders - we REALLY do have to catch them all.

Florida loves unethical fascists, evidently.
