Report: Gaetz Used Venmo To Pay Indicted Sex Trafficker, Who Then Sent Cash To 18-Year-Old

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) reportedly used Venmo to send $900 one night in March 2018 to his friend and alleged sex trafficker Joel Greenberg, who then Venmo’d the same amount of money to three young women, including an 18-year-old, the next day.

Wow, even T**** wasn’t that stupid when paying for sex, and that’s really a tough standard to surpass.

I don’t really understand the 'sex trafficking lingo.
Can we use pimp and john for Greenberg and Gaetz, or am I missing something?
Serious question.

They just don’t believe any rules apply for them.

If you get caught jus blow enough feigned indignation politically motivated attack smoke on Newsmax, OAN and Fox to wriggle off the hook

About three cents short of sending your co-conspirators a group text “lol this thing we’re planning is illegal, we should probably be talking only in person”.

A few more stories like this, and I may have to start questioning this guy’s judgment.

This is what happens when an arrogant asshole’s rich daddy has bought him out of every situation where he might have had to suffer the consequences of his actions.

How much nastier and more disgusting does it have to get for the cry for him to leave is overwhelming? Or are they just going to wait until his arrest?? Or perhaps even until his conviction??? Or will the GQP allow him to serve from prison?

Next, we’ll hear Matt ask “what about the children?”

But not in the context normal people would mean.

I don’t think he paid for sex, so much as later reluctantly paid to keep quiet about it.

I’m guessing that the one who was just 18 at the time is not cooperating much. She is allegedly now is working in the porn industry.

One of the women who received one of these payments from Greenberg was just over 18 years old at the time, and reportedly now works in the porn industry.
