Embattled Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz is denied a meeting with Trump
CNN ^ | 4/11/21 | Gabby orr

(CNN) Rep. Matt Gaetz, who's facing a federal investigation into sex trafficking allegations, was recently denied a meeting with Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate as the ex-President and his allies continue to distance themselves from the Florida congressman.

Two people familiar with the matter said Gaetz tried to schedule a visit with Trump after it was first revealed that he was being investigated, but the request was rejected by aides close to the former President, who have urged Trump not to stick his neck out to defend Gaetz.

More divide and conquer. President Trump should have Gaetz’s back. I don’t care what he did.

Disagree...The Truth is the best defense...not President Trump.

And I do care what he did...if anything.

Hmmm, CNN. I believe that Gaetz and Trump are real people. Other than that, I would need confirmation from elsewhere to believe the story. It’s not that CNN is incapable of reporting the truth, it’s just unlikely.

“ Two people familiar with the matter......”

Yep. Unverifiable sources again.

At this stage in President Trump’s life.......the people around him are the extreme loyal and know to keep their mouths shut around hostile media.

CNN has no on-the-record sources making this claim, no electronic or written or recorded evidence backing up this claim, it flat out never happened, and we demand a full retraction of this story.

Who was the editor that allowed this to be printed???

This @CNN story is complete fake news.

No such scheduling or meeting request was ever made, and therefore, it could never have been declined.

Take note that this story has zero on-the-record sources. It’s literally made-up.

We are demanding a full retraction. #FakeNews twitter.com/gabbyorr_/stat…

“aides close to the former President, who have urged Trump not to stick his neck out to defend Gaetz.”

Guess they forgot how often and strongly Gaetz stuck his neck out to defend Trump. Once again, Trump seems to be taking bad advice from questionable personnel.

If you truly believe that Matt Gaetz needs to bang 17 year old girls, then I don’t know what to say. The man lives in the Florida Panhandle with some of the world’s best beaches and beautiful women everywhere. His fiancée is stunning. Matt knows he’s under the microscope of the left and enemy media. He’s not stupid.
