Donald Trump’s selection of Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) to be the country's next attorney general prompted his resignation from Congress, but according to reports, the possible release of a House Ethics Committee investigative report may have also played a role in his stepping down.Gaetz, a MAGA enthusia...
He’s my congressman, and I’ll be the very last to defend him, but a 17-yo is hardly a “kid”. So stop the bullshit. There’s plenty to nail him to the wall without lying.
It would appear that you’re the first to defend him.
Ah but hopefully he IS the last, at least on this thread, so he’s actually right!
You know, I wanted to jump in here and jokingly defend Gaetz to take away the title from shalafi, but I couldn’t even do that. Fuck Matt “kid fucker” Gaetz.

That looks to me like defending a kid-fucker.
Look, if you didn’t lose your virginity until your 30s, maybe a 17-yo is a child to you. By the time I was 18, my gf (17) and I had fucked every way we could figure out. She was no child.
Was Gaetz 18? Also no one cares what you did, if you fucked a child it wouldn’t make it right. What a weird argument
That’s nice. Gaetz is still a kid-fucker.
He was 40 when she was 17, trafficked across state lines for sex and money.
Not the same thing as a Romeo and Juliet relationship. This was child prostitution.
If you’re from Florida as you say you would know what he did was absolutely illegal, and what you did was legal. Florida always has had age gap laws defined around consent so long as the guardian doesn’t disagree with their relationship. (Called the Romeo and Juliet laws).
They specified a 16 or 17 year old could sleep with up to a 23 year old if all parties are agreed (guardian permission would usually be needed). 24 Rape.
Everyone I knew in school knew that, because if a 17 year old sneaks in to party with a fake ID people at 18 were already worried., and 21 were extremely cautious)
1 year difference is a bit different to half a lifetime difference and one is a kid. He likely groomed her
Furthermore, he’s meant to be creating the laws. It’s even worse to be fucking kids when you’re in a position of power, and infinitely worse as AG
That’s really going out of a limb for the worst reason. I can’t believe I have to say that if someone in their late thirties has sex with a 17 year old, that’s gross on multiple levels and summing it up as fucking a kid is highly appropriate
Well ackshually 🤓
You seem to know a lot about him to forget it wasn’t just about having sex with a minor, he was being investigated for sex trafficking a minor across state lines - https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/matt-gaetz-s-ex-girlfriend-testifies-grand-jury-sex-trafficking-n1287352
Didn’t his buddy get arrested for creating fake IDs for underage girls also? Or some shit like that. Lol
It’s in the article, it was his friend Joel Greenberg who was charged with a number of crimes, including trafficking the girl tied to Gaetz.
DeSantis though, had pictures taken of him while drinking with high school girls he was teaching at the time (only added this cause I confused this one with Gaetz). I love snopes mentions the girls were probably 18 because it was right before graduation, as if no one was born in the summer / non seniors wouldn’t ever be at a graduation party.

We found the republican pedo.
You claimed that you would be the last to defend him, then defended him? Like what?
Being in your thirties and having sex with someone nearly half your age is wildly inappropriate. There’s so little that you would have in common as far as life experiences go. The years from 18-25 are some of the most influential in life and leaves people vulnerable to grooming. Experts claim that the brain hasn’t even fully developed in most adults until 25 years old. Finding people in that age attractive as a 35 year old is fine. Watch porn to your hearts content, but pursuing a relationship or sexual encounter with someone in early adulthood is just weird. It doesn’t need to be illegal to be fucking weird or predatory. In Gaetz’s case it just so happens to be all three.
4D chess move, now no one else can defend him because he already called ‘last’.
