Does Baby Gaetz A Blanket?

Submitted by ub on

Before Matt Gaetz burst onto the national political scene as the sharp-tongued, attention-grabbing Trump defender, he was best known in Florida as “Baby Gaetz.”

As a parent, I understand the importance of a baby blanket. Once a child grows up and is not a real spoiled brat, they don’t  need one.

A baby security blanket will help to develop every child's sense of independence. Having something other than a parent that brings comfort helps to provide individuality and allows for a healthy separation. But what about a big baby with a silver spoon up his butt?

Florida Republican cry-baby Rep. Matt Gaetz  reportedly sought a blanket preemptive pardons for himself and his baby allies during the final weeks of a #TwiceImpeached #LameDuck presidency, folks familiar with the discussions claim according to The New York Times.

An act of pre-emptive clemency may have been come in handy to Matt Gaetz as the Florida representative faces a Department of Justice investigation into whether or not he violated federal sex trafficking statutes by allegedly paying for a minor to cross state lines and give him pleasure.

According to the New York Times, that’s what he may have been thinking back in the final weeks of Donald Trump’s term, when Gaetz may have asked for a blanket pardon for himself and unnamed allies in Congress.

Gaetz was the lone no vote on the Combating Human Trafficking in Commercial Vehicles Act, a bill allocating additional government resources to help combat human trafficking. Gaetz later explained that his vote was due to his small government principles, believing that existing federal agencies could adequately combat human trafficking and stating that "voters in Northwest Florida did not send me to Washington to go and create a larger government.

Meanwhile, US Congressman Matt Gaetz (R-FL) is speaking at a conservative women’s event at the Trump National Doral resort in the middle of a federal investigation into whether he allegedly violated federal sex trafficking laws. There are now growing stories floating around the news cycle that Gaetz may have gotten tagged as the boyfriend from hell.
