Freepers will be glad to assist the Ministry of Propaganda destroy him.

Freepers are actively assisting in his destruction.

The “Charge”, as in allegation, has already been discredited. But the unbiased media and the DOJ including the FBI, seem incredibly unwilling to let it go. They continue to investigate and the media continues to report the investigation. They want to get Matt Gaetz for his outspoken support of President Trump.

People who use the letter U instead of spelling out the word you just to save 2 keystrokes are not worth listening to.

If you can’t manage your own wiener you have no business managing the country. Especially if you claim to be conservative and thus ought to know better.

He said:

“I support Donald Trump for president. I’ve directly encouraged him to run and he gives me every indication he will,” Gaetz told the paper. “If Trump doesn’t run, I’m sure I could defeat whatever remains of Joe Biden by 2024.”

OP didn’t post the article correctly

No way! Not very respectful of President Trump or Ron DeSantis

The guy is tone deaf. I'm only interested in voting for the two you listed who have executive experience. Reps and Senators, not so much.

...fundraising ploy?

Matt? Banging on pots to get attention and raise $?

Perish the thought.

“But, you can’t be banging teenagers when you’re in Congress, not in 2021...”

But Senators can finger-rape their staffers in the hallway and end up as President. Matt must have thought he could play by Democrat rules.

My guess is that he has Vice-Presidential aspirations. Our standards for President are unbelievably low, and Gaetz has a rich daddy and all, but he can’t be deluded enough to run for President.

Not everyone who campaigns seeks to win the office.

He’ll get to highlight certain issues, fundraise, and may be able to negotiate some sort of “access” to the eventual winner or even some appointed office.

But, you can't be banging teenagers when you're in Congress, not in 2021 and not when you're in your mid to late 30s

You can't? Damn, scratch that one off my Bucket List

#33. Run for Congress
#34. Bang teenagers in your mid 30s

Do I have a picture of the girl? WTF? Have you been living under a rock or been in a coma for the last six weeks. That’s his defense; She wasn’t 17. She was 18 (maybe 19 at the oldest). He talked about her with Tucker Carlson in the interview he gave the night the story broke. He claimed that he even took her to a dinner with Carlson and his wife, an allegation Carlson says he has no memory of.

What words haven’t come out of Gaetz mouth: ‘This whole story is ridiculous. I haven’t dated a teenager since I was a teen myself.’

There’s a reason Gaetz hasn’t said that, apparently.

And no, idiot. I’m not ‘jealous’ of a grown man who has to troll teenybopper sock-hops or wherever it is men find teenagers today. I’m a man who like women, not children.

Is that perhaps why Biden’s Department of Just-us is looking into him?
