ZeroCool,

The fact that Matt Gaetz wasn’t forced to resign in disgrace for being a sex trafficker says all you need to know about the GOP.

The fact that he isn’t in jail for those same crimes says all you need to know about the justice system in this country as well.

tomatopathe,

And that other serial liar from NY.

Ugh. We never wanted that goddamn Cheeto. He’s a new Yorker like Foxwoods casino is owned by native Americans: technically true, but so different that in actuality, not.

HWK_290,

You mean speaker of the house George Santos? The very same George Santos that singlehandedly stopped a government shutdown and rallied bipartisan support the likes of which have never been equaled in modern history?

Cryophilia,

Perhaps he was talking about George Santos’s father, George Santos. You know, the one who dropped the atom bomb on Osaka.

gregorum,

the GOP is fueled by disgrace

I can only assume by his continued presence his constituency in Pensacola FL appreciates having their own personal values being reflected in their representation. People of Pensacola, please demonstrate I’m incorrect by voting him out.

He's supposed to represent his constituents, right? Then I say we call everyone in Pensacola pedos and sex traffickers.

charliespider,

You talking about Pedsacola Florida?

EmpathicVagrant,

It’s pronounced pedocoddle Florida, as long as he represents them.

vaultdweller013,

Isnt Pensacola Florida where Kent Hovind is from? If so that would explain a lot about Gaetz.

Republican logic: “Sex trafficking of a minor? Fine if you’re a Republican. Republican conducts major instances of fraud, including defrauding a veteran? Fine. Democrat pulls a fire alarm? He needs to go to prison immediately!!!”

Rapidcreek,

When you have people who don’t believe in government or democracy in a democratic government you get neither government or democracy.

vote the bums out.

Well, Groomer Gaetz had better make sure he’s keeping his nose very clean on the trafficking and the grooming front. He’s making some very powerful enemies that are sure to leak something that will actually land him in very hot water and this time he might not get away with it.

What was the DOJ’s dumb excuse for not charging him again

spark947,

What sucks about this attitude is that despite the clownshow of conservative PMs in Britain, the only thing more pathetic has been the political opposition. Hate hate to be a doomer, but it could go that way in the US too.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

The party supposed to walk in lockstep no longer does, so any GOP speaker is destined to fail at this point.

I’m okay with that. Our forefathers assumed that the average person would vote to support their constituents. But instead, we got mofos voting against their own beliefs because “the other team” proposed it.

The Democrats only started playing the lockstep game after Republicans mastered it for decades. And honestly, people breaking rank and forcing bipartisanship and making concessions is what we are supposed to be doing.

weedazz,

There is no way the average American will ever be able to comprehend anything more complicated than “my tribe” vs “not my tribe”

Also ranked choice voting got NYC Mayor Eric Adams. The election took way longer than it should have and they ended up with the "centrist"candidate that should have never gotten elected and disappointed both sides

@joel_feila@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah but democracy works when all sides are constantly miffed.

IamRoot,

Gaetz is an entitled aristocrat. Child of a politician and a total piece of shit as a human being.

I know most of you already know this, but maybe someone will learn something new today.

spider, (edited )

but maybe someone will learn something new today

Probably includes no one in his district.

Astroturfed,

Wait, the guy who was caught fucking a teenage prostitute isn’t a good dude?

GQP: rape murder and treason are fine, but if you so much as glance at a democrat, I’ll fucking end you.

@m3t00@lemmy.world avatar

anytime the batshit crazies want to attack another batshit crazy is okay by me. Watched KM on FaceTNation, harp about the wonderful things DT will do when reelected. get him nuttso!

Rapidcreek,

Prediction: Gaetz will ultimately fail

uberkalden,

Yeah, I find it hard to believe the rest of the republicans want to go through that shit show again

captainlezbian,

Does he know the job doesn’t come with children to molest?

But it looks it comes with excellent protection.

Gaetz is just walking in the steps of Dennis Hastert

JakenVeina,

“No no no, wait, I never said I would take the job!”

carl_dungeon,

Was that child rapist Matt Gaetz that said that?

GreenMario,

Arrest his ass for child fucking he has one in his house ffs. Surely the house speaker can hold that shit over his head unless in order to be a Republican you must do a child fucking ritual…

Huh, I forgot about that strange situation with his adopted son.

hoanbridgetroll,
@hoanbridgetroll@midwest.social avatar

Matt wants to get back to his true passion project of owning teenage girls.

Also, is it just me or does he bear an uncanny resemblance to Richard Nixon in the picture?

captainlezbian,

Omg he does look about 5 shots and some cottage cheese pineapple away from Nixon

reddig33,

Looks more like Butthead to me.

Heratiki,

Why would you disparage Butthead in such a way? Blasphemer!!!

Fraylor,

Ahuhuhuhuhuhuh huhuhuhuhuh

Zink,

I was just about to post that he looks like Beavis and Butthead had a baby.

morphballganon,

And boys

shadearg,
@shadearg@lemmy.world avatar

Do it, Beavhead.

You’re going to cry like a baby when they vote you speaker.

2piradians,

I agree, but I don’t think he’ll have the support. It’s orders of magnitude easier to be a thorn in the speaker’s side than to do the job.

Also I see Beavis, Butthead, and a dash of Mr. Burns in this dingus caricature.

And there are probably so many cons just waiting for the right moment to shiv him in the back - drop just the worst incriminating evidence at the worst possible time for him.

dingleberry,

Sure thing Wishmaster.

Isn’t it Baader–Meinhof when you notice something a lot suddenly? I swear I have been seeing Wishmaster mentioned all over the last few days. Nice burn btw.
