Trump and his allies have abandoned Matt Gaetz because they 'aren't surprised' by the lurid sex allegations and 'consider him to be a grenade whose pin had already been pulled

I’ll wait till a woman of Christine Balsey Ford’s caliber comes out in public to condemn Gatz before I jump on the guilty wagon.

Yeah, FNC is great. They helped the Democrats steal the election. This is the Alinsky dance against Goetz.

Trump has the best intelligence around. If he isn’t supporting Gaetz, it’s for a good reason.

I will wait to until all the facts are revealed.
Amazing that this is even an issue since Bill Clinton is still the accepted elite on women’s empowerment. If anyone should be run out of town on a rail, it is him!

This might not be right-think, but most of America allows consent from 16 & 17 year olds. Florida and 10 other states require 18.
It appears to be a legal issue and not a morals issue, so I suspect many writers are feigning outrage when their own state has a lower age of consent and has had it for years.

Some more details about Gaetz have become clear - namely that he and his father were being shaken down by some guy who claimed to want the money to free an Iranian hostage. Whether the stuff Matt Gaetz was apparently being shaken down over is true - who knows? Still haven't seen anyone come forth to accuse him of anything, just some reports about investigations.
When guys like Andrew Cuomo sit around refusing to resign in the face of multiple accusations by named accusers, I'm not prepared to throw Gaetz under the bus over some insinuations. Let the facts come out.
To: StAnDeliver
There was a significant unasked followup to Kent's comment that "We have worked with multiple people over the years. All of them have been similar situations. I mean a lot of them have been facing indictments. All looking for goodwill".
Why did Cuomo not ask who else did you make this type of offer to?

Gaetz always struck me as a flaky guy who was more of a showman than a serious politician. Nothing wrong with that, but his credibility took a huge hit in my book when he was running around claiming to have all the votes lined up to dump Liz Cheney from her GOP leadership post ... only to see her get re-elected to that position by a wide margin.

Silence is a far cry from abandonment.
Articles are portraying Gaetz as a sleaze and successfully so. I wonder what people in his district are thinking.

Gaetz is an upgrade over what they had with joe scarborough.
btw: any updates on the Lori Klausutis investigation?

Sorry, but the Daily Mail indicating that Trump has abandoned Gaetz is meaningless. It sounds like NTY with “numerous sources” scam they floated against POTUS Trump.
IMHO

$27,000,000 of taxpayer money hushed of Congress’ sexual harassment charges. Who knows how much private donations also went to do this?
And the rest of Congress swears they are all choirboys?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
why didn’t they just pay it out of the US Congressional Sexual Abuse Hush Fund like all the rest of them do?

Is Gaetz married
If not where is the evidence (of any kind) that he was involved with a 17 yr old girl?
As for the pic on his phone of a nude girl wearing just a Hula Hoop.....so what?
And the guy accused by Gaetz of attempted extortion has already admitted he asked for cash with an excuse lacking credibility.

The Achilles’s heel of most male politicians is just below their belt buckle.Considering Kamala Harris' history of rising to the top as Willie Brown's whore, I wouldn't limit it to males only.

One would think that by now we had the common sense to reserve judgment when a media circus starts up. The truth will get out sooner or later, time enough for conclusions then.
