To you it may not be, but pretending it’s not an issue in the general sense is being naive.
If that report contains what some are reporting it does it’s going to be some level of issue.
Gaetz isn’t Trump. Trump certainly can appoint him, even recess appoint him if he needs to, but I think folks are a bit naive thinking this won’t have any impact.
He was being blackmailed, there were no charges, nobody cares about deep state smears. The election proved that.
