Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is scrambling after the New York Times dropped a bombshell report revealing that the Justice Department is currently investigating the congressman for allegedly having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old and paying for her travel expenses two years ago.
You might say it blew up in his face. Were drugs involved? Was he pimping to other GOP congress critters? Was it Russian kompromat? Personality flaws prevent his keeping his mouth shut and finally that’s a good thing.
Gaetz Out-trumping T****. Who could imagine?
Light him up, and frog-march him to Leavenworth. He has earned the spotlight.
Feel free to drag a few other Republicans while you’re at it, Matt.
When you’re getting vouched for by Gym Jordan, you should know you’re in trouble.
ETA: some first rate what-about-ism is happening on Twitter trying to deflect from the Gaetz implosion with cries of “But Hunter Biden!!!”
Gaetz’s Response To Sex Trafficking Allegation Has Been An Entire Train Wreck
And why should this one be different?
We’ll know when Masty’s daddy has hired him a PR crisis response team when A: Masty shuts the fuck up, and B: Masty shuts the fuck up.
Pro tip, Masty’s daddy, maybe not the crew that did Prince Andrew.
Weird thought, you suppose all this is Masty acting out daddy issues?
Or that he’s seen you in the showers…
“I don’t remember the woman you’re speaking of or the context at all, honestly,” Carlson said.
“Although I still have the photos from the time you brought those girls from the Slovenian youth gymnastics team,” Carlson continued.
Who would ever do that to a Slovenian girl?
It’s interesting to see the TPM front page all Gaetz all the time. I can’t say it’s an aesthetic improvement over all Trump all the time, but it does make a change.
I think we are now at the point of requiring either (i) drug testing of the Republican Representative of Florida’s 1st District, or (ii) a mental health assessment of the Republican Representative of Florida’s 1st District.
Maybe us common people don’t have ability to understand a genius like Gaetz? 
Theatre of the absurd?
In the part of Mexico I grew up they had a saying about something “turning up more expensive than a foolish son” (“Salio mas caro que un hijo tonto”)…Gaetz senior would surely agree, young Matt keeps getting himself into expensive mistakes.
Former US Rep Steve King might be available for Gaetz’s PR damage control. Couldn’t be any worse than Matt. Closing the barn Gaetz after the cat is out (of the bag.)
Not mutually exclusive. Both may be appropriate. And can we include a few other Republican House members too?
I love the smell of a weasel squirming in the morning.
this one just made me laugh
