Sometimes I think Gaetz isn’t very smart.

“Sometimes”? Me thinks he’s not so bright most times. Just saying.

In a nutshell, there is your Republican Party of Law n’ Order + Family Values + Christianism.

Wished they used that “vigor and effectiveness” against COVID, or protecting the environment, or working with our allies, or . . .

Trump doesn’t have to do anything to prevent the liberals from gaining traction on anything…like single payer healthcare, renewable energy, eliminating starvation in the US, restoring graduated taxes, or even free public education for rural America.

Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer have been the biggest obstacles to Democrats offering a real difference from the corrupt Repukes! The anti-worker corporatist Democrats is why Trump emerged on the national scene…but the Dem establishment will never wake up!

Indeed, Trump should pardon all the criminals of his administration. That is the very definition of “Law & Order”. In fact, he should pardon the entire Republican Party before it is declared a criminal organization and prosecuted under the RICO statutes.

My rep, Andy Biggs, is exactly like Gaetz except for the humor and charisma.

On the “importance” scale, Gaetz is in China Syndrome territory.

Adaptation of an old joke: how can you tell when the dais Gaetz is speaking from is level? When he drools out of both sides of his mouth.

… kinda like Marco Rubio’s point about those smart Ivy League education people… see if Matt Goetz had enough brains to have gone to one of those schools … he might not have been able to utter this utter stupidity… but it is what it is …

… and for the record … seriously doubt that he actually had enough brains to legitimately go to William and Mary… string were pulled…

Is Gaetz drunk AGAIN? Or just stupid? Or just immature? Or just corrupt? YES, to all of those.

Trump may pardon himself and take a chance that the Supreme Court will back him. Will Biden’s DoJ even challenge it? He may even try to get the Supremes to make an attempt at the state level a case of “double jeopardy”.
Yeah, yeah I know it’s state vs federal but we’re talking about a guy who appointed 3 sitting justices.

But if they did nothing wrong, why would they say they did for legal cover?

It is encouraging to see the pro-life party so laser-focused on saving human lives in the midst of the deadliest public-health crisis in more than a century.
