Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat, or something in between, one thing we should all agree on: Matt Gaetz is an absolute scumbag.
Last month, a federal judge in Florida unsealed court documents from a related civil case that shed some light on her background. The documents included a description of the girl that said that at the time she met Mr. Gaetz she was “a then-homeless 17-year-old high schooler”
