During this past week, with this craziness with Pam Bondi and the Epstein Files, there has been strong renewed interest in placing Matt Gaetz in the AG seat on MAGA social media.
Problem is that I recall that it is Matt Gaetz who pulled his name from consideration and also resigned from his Congress seat, which pretty much removed him from active politics. And this is amongst the time that ethics report is about to come out. If Gaetz is as innocent as he maintain, he would've fought on to be AG, and Trump can vouch for him and push him through.
Something tells me that, through his actions, Gaetz might have implied that there is more serious skeletons in his closet that he does not want to get out and he is not the innocent golden boy he is.
So, the question is, why is Matt Gaetz considered to be the golden boy within MAGA circles? Even he is criticized less than Donald Trump.
Because he says things all of us are thinking and is a hero of ordinary Americans. Why wouldn't he be so popular?
Now, it also has to be noted that this administration has a policy of keeping its enemies close; only to use that as an opportunity to expose their crimes. It's a recurring and very effective strategy.
So, it is entirely possible that Gaetz was nominate for AG so that his history of sex with underage children was revealed, and that he was no more than a fake patriot.
But you can't assume that. It could also be that the allegations against him were all false, and the point of his appointment was to draw out, and publicise, and prove false, those allegations, so that the makers (almost always pedophiles themselves) face the consequences.
All will one day be revealed. For the time being, though, the only patriotic thing to do is to a) believe wholeheartedly those who we trust, regardless and b) prepared to turn against any one of them at a moments notice, should the evidence be revealed. Treason is everywhere and nothing is as it seems. You cannot assume virtue from a person's words.
