He might be the joker! That face is unreal. Wtf
Right? Those arched eyebrows are freakin' scary.
There is literally nothing Trump could do that DBM would find wrong.
It’s like he went into the plastic surgeon and said, “Can you make my eyebrows look like I’m always interested when people speak to me?”
In his defense, didn't he just this week question the Rubio pick of SoS?
insurrection barbie lol. fantastic. i'll tell ya this much dbm. you do bring it son! lol
Uh - he conveniently resigned right before a reportedly damaging Ethics Committee report was to be released. And Senators want the House Ethics Committee subpoenaed before voting to confirm.
What’s truly wild, though probably not surprising, is that there are people who believed a hair-brained conspiracy about a child trafficking ring in the basement of a place that has no basement who also shrug at Gaetz’s credible accusations of child trafficking and underage sex. And they’re cheering him on to get confirmed for AG because MAGA.
Talk about having no moral compass or backbone. Anyone supporting Gaetz to take over the department currently investigating him for child trafficking and under age sex are horrible people.
You can't be serious.
Sure. A guy who wouldn't be able to pass an FBI background check is a perfect appointee for the country's chief law enforcement officer.
In the final analysis it wasn't the Dems who "rounded on Monica like a ravenous pack of wolves" it was Linda Tripp who pretended to be her friend and secretly taped phone calls about her affair with Clinton in what Tripp called a patriotic act.
As Monica says about Tripp in this Wiki account concerning Tripp, "I hate Linda Tripp".
Gaetz and Newsom are the finalists for bad hairdo on a male politician contest.
I want to see a supporting link for this claim:
This was all happening while the FBI was probing Matt Gaetz for s*x trafficking. Of course charges were never filed. And he was CLEARED of all wrongdoing.
I'll wait.
Ol' Markwayne is now claiming he and Matt Gaetz have had 'differences of opinions.' Interesting way to say you maybe aren't cool with child sex trafficking, but hey who is he to judge?
It's wild that a lot of Republicans are that blindly loyal to whatever Trump says and does. Before this AG appointment, EVERYONE was ready to toss Matt Gaetz to the curb (or prison). If credible accusations of child sex trafficking and bragging about sleeping with underage girls isn't where you take a moral stand, where is that line?

Well ya,
Well ya, more proof the FBI has been weaponized by the woke Democrats to destroy Trump and his supporters.

Not just an FBI background check. Many of these guys for sure couldn't pass ANY background check to (say) get a job at Starbucks
So does a sewer line.
Lol. Only you would ignore the clear winner in such a contest.
Yes, bigly. The Dems put a lot of money into a smear campaign. And Robinson was a political novice and not backed very well by Republicans. Being black in NC is still a liability in NC when it comes to state offices.

Matt Gaetz is a Vile Sex Pest and Any Senator Who Votes For Him Owns That
Crush Some Viagra And Pour The Red Bull In Your Veins

I realize that we are occasionally given to hyperbole about the untoward nature of politicians, but let me be clear: Matt Gaetz is a sex trafficking drug addicted piece of shit. He is abhorrent. His eyes are permanently rimmed with the red rings of chemical boosters. In person, he smells like overexposed Axe Body Spray and stale Astroglide. The fact that he boasted on the floor to multiple colleagues in the House of Representatives of his methods of crushing Viagra and high test Red Bull to maintain his erection through his orgiastic evenings is perhaps the least offensive of his many crimes against womanhood and Christian faith. The man has less principles than your average fentanyl addicted hobo. He likes them underage and he’s not ashamed about it. Matt Gaetz isn’t just your average extreme Florida MAGA Man, he’s a hypocritical ass with the worst Botox money can buy, pursuing an ever-thinner nose and higher cheekbones at every opportunity like a Real Housewife gone mad for fillers. Every Republican in Washington has an opinion about Matt Gaetz, and 99 percent of those opinions are “Keep Matt Gaetz away from my wife/daughter/friend and anyone I care about.” He is a walking genital, warts included as a bonus. If I was merely attempting to count the number of women I know who have had bad experiences with Matt Gaetz, I would run out of fingers and toes. If you vote for him to be the Attorney General of the United States, you don’t just need your head examined, you need to be committed to a mental institution. The man is absolutely vile. There are pools of vomit with more to offer the earth than this STD-riddled testament to the failure of fallen masculinity.
Let’s just deal with the facts. Did Matt Gaetz transport an underage woman across state lines with the stated intent of her having sex with him and his friends? Yes. Did he later claim to Tucker Carlson that this woman did not exist? Yes. Does this conflict with the fact that one of his closest friends was convicted of having sex with this underage woman for pay? Yes. Are Gaetz and his orgy friends attempting to destroy the records — images, videos, etc. — from this sex party to protect his political future? Yes. Does this matter to Republicans? Who can say? Donald J. Trump has the best judgment in politics, of course he would never name a sex trafficking drug addled lying philandering piece of shit to be the Attorney General of the United States simply to avoid investigation. Or would he?
Here’s the real deal: Matt Gaetz is the line for how we assess the Republican Party. If they are truly a cult of personality, beholden to Donald Trump in ways that we could not even imagine for a party that rejects cults and idol worship, they will approve this choice. But if they have a degree of independence, any kind of free thought, mindful of the fact that a presidency is four years but your career is forever, they will reject this choice so emphatically that it sends a very simple, straightforward message: you can be an absolute dirtbag wannabe pimp pounding dick pills and caffeine while you film your “girlfriend” twerking on the gram, or you can be a Republican. The choice is yours.
As reprehensible as his acts may have been, it's not all that outrageous from what goes on in DC.
Whatever happened to the Dem cries of staying out of everyone's personal life?
I oppose Gaetz, but not because of bad boy sexual behavior (I haven't heard that he did anyting against anyone ele's will). I oppose him because he acts like a child - an immature child, at that - and is a pita to the Republican Party and had to be the center of attention during the Speaker votes. I don't question his intellect, but how he'll use it.
"If I was merely attempting to count the number of women I know who have had bad experiences with Matt Gaetz, I would run out of fingers and toes".
That's a new wrinkle, at least to me. If there were a confirmation hearing I would hope that some of them come forward with descriptions of his creepy behavior. They might not want to, since they will be vilified by MAGA loyalists, but it would be good theater.

If you're a lawyer in Indiana, your DUI charges go away.
Remember the drunk lawyer that wrecked his car going the wrong way on an interstate ramp? It made big news - probably mid-90s. That charge went away.
And I personally know of a couple cases in Howard County alone where a lawyer was stopped and either blew drunk or refused to take a sobriety case. Both just went away.
Let's not get all high and mighty.
For those concerned about global peace, his three worst picks by far are Rubio, Waltz, and Stefanik. 3 Neocons. If I was a Trump voter they would be complaint A, B, C. I thought we were getting away from the Bolton types?
Many years ago in phoning the C-Span morning caller line I mentioned the name of a conservative opinion columnist. Later that day she sent me an email and mentioned getting "a hoot" out of my call.
Soon after "Hoot" became my self my proclaimed handle on The Cooler.
You should check out the Indiana lawyer discipline page. It’s a lot of lawyers getting suspended for DUIs. There’s no magic get out of jail card as you imagine.
I know there are a helluva lot of DUI chages that just go away.
I don't think there's a get out of jail card, but I know favors are done - and so do you.
Murt and I were friends with a lawyer who had his license suspended for 6 months for his second DUI. I’m not familiar with a bunch of DUIs just going away. And anyone who gets 3 has a serious problem with alcohol.
Agreed. I'm just saying if I personally know of some, it's happening all over.
I know a lawyer in Indy who knew the guy who wrecked on the interstate ramp going the wrong way. They had him dead to rights and it just went away. My friend said at the time he'd get off and I said he was crazy. My friend was right.
His statement was, "If you're a lawyer in Indiana, your DUI charges go away." There was no qualifier, like some go away or most go away or anything. Like he often does, he pulled it out of his bunghole, and as usual, he moved the goal posts in his reply to you.
That's some kind of writing. "There are pools of vomit with more to offer the earth than this STD-riddled testament to the failure of fallen masculinity." Next time he'll have to tell everyone what he really thinks.

dbm is correct.
Lies and more lies.
Joel Greenburg got 11 years in federal prison, pled after 33 fed charges including sex trafficking of a minor, identity theft and mail fraud. He told DOJ feds he could give them Gaetz. He lied.
Steven Alford pled guilty to 6 charges, after attempting to extort $25 million from Gaetz father who wore an FBI wire to expose the blackmailing plot.
Gaetz was NOT CHARGED by the DOJ. Alford has a long history as a con man, convicted 3 times since 2006.

Leftist posters on this board are mendacious liars.
You're not opposed to Gaetz for the crimes he's credibly accused of?
Cool. I'll mark you down for being OK with child sex trafficking and sex with minors. There really is no other way to spin what you've written here. This is truly a reprehensible take, DANC.
No, truths and more truths.
Nobody said that Gaetz was charged, they said he was under investigation. He is. Or was, since he resigned to stop it being completed.
Nobody said that all of the evidence against Gaetz depends on a couple of scummy characters, people you mentioned. Important evidence seemingly comes from the GOP congressmen who he showed his teen pics to, and to whom he bragged about needed a Viagra Red Bull. Other evidence apparently comes from witnesses, including the then-underaged women. Other evidence comes from other women who witnessed creepy (though perhaps not criminal) behavior. I suspect that if he has a hearing, women will be coming out of the woodwork against him. He's that kind of guy. A hero to you, I'm sure, though you probably wish he was more of a Nazi.
You do know that there was a potentially damning ethics investigation report that would have likely resulted in charges, right? And there are Republicans that are saying they suspect that's why he resigned - to keep that from seeing the light of day.
From the article linked above:
Other GOP House colleagues believe his decision is actually tied to an Ethics Committee report investigating several allegations including that Gaetz engaged in sex with a minor, which they believe was poised to be released in a matter of days....
...One House Republican, granted anonymity to speak candidly, tied Gaetz’s resignation to trying to “stymie the ethics investigation that is coming out in one week.”
Ethics Chair Michael Guest (R-Miss.) told reporters ahead of Gaetz’s announced resignation that the probe would end if Gaetz was no longer a member of the House.
“Once the investigation is complete, the Ethics Committee will meet as a committee. We will then return our findings. If Matt Gaetz is still a member of Congress, then that will occur. If Matt has resigned, then this ethics investigation, like many others in the past, will end again,” Guest told reporters about the impact of Gaetz being picked for attorney general.
I really hope the people calling to subpoena the House Ethics Committee report are successful in doing so. Or that the report leaks.
It's truly insane that there are people here defending Matt motherf#*$king Gaetz.
The AG nomination is just cover. I mean, how is this not obvious? But the dems, again, go hysterical over the Trump appointment instead of the underlying chess move. Idiots.
