If Only There Had Been Signs that Matt Gaetz Was a Total Creep
From Florida Man to interstate predator
Matt Gaetz is a tool. Suppose you’re only finding out now because he’s under investigation by the Department of Justice for charges of sex trafficking a minor. In that case, you’re late to the pizza party.
For years this congressional creep has lived up to the “Florida Man” stereotype. With a sycophantic devotion to Donald Trump, no other person better personifies the essence of the MAGA movement and its total lack of accountability for bad behavior.
With his frat-boy antics, this master distractor has a gift for gaslighting critics to deflect from the reprehensible actions of his fellow Republicans. But, as a recent interview with Tucker Carlson proves, Gaetz has been unable to divert attention away from his scandal and seems to be making it worse with each disclosure.
“You and I went to dinner about two years ago,” Gaetz told Carlson. “Your wife was there, and I brought a [under aged?] friend of mine. You’ll remember her.” The stunned white supremacist claimed no recollection, but the look on his fascist face was priceless.
