<\/p>\nThe old saying in political circles that warns you to stop digging if you find yourself in a hole, is being utterly ignored by Republican hothead Matt Gaetz (Q-FL). Despite his being the subject of federal investigations into sex trafficking of a minor, prostitution, drug use, and financial corruption, Gaetz is continuing to mouth off in public to the delight of his prosecutors.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Not surprisingly, Gaetz is ranting in a manner that will be familiar to anyone who has paid attention to Donald Trump for the past five years. His oblivious defiance in the face of increasing legal peril is reminiscent of the former guy’s stubborn refusal to accept reality even after two impeachments, dozens of civil and criminal lawsuits, and numerous former associates ratting him out.<\/p>\n
Gaetz had the audacity to deliver a speech<\/a><\/strong> at – where else – the Trump National Doral golf resort in Florida before a group of “Women for America First.”<\/em> And if it wasn’t bad enough that an accused sex offender is speaking before an audience of women, the group was also one of the organizers of the deadly January 6th insurrection in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n The speech began with a shout out to his fianc\u00e9e, Ginger Luckey (a stripper name if there ever was one). And it went downhill from there. In a reference to the “stop the steal,”<\/em> Big Lie rhetoric that triggered the riots in the Capitol, Gaetz told the crowd that “They can never steal what America felt like under Donald Trump.”<\/em> Which is true. The nation will not soon forget what it felt like to have a narcissistic, pathological lying, racist, mishandling a pandemic that took the lives of more than half a million Americans due to his negligence, incompetence, and deliberate malfeasance.<\/p>\n Gaetz went on to brand himself as a demagogue. “Firebrands,”<\/em> he bragged, “don’t retreat. Especially when the battle for the soul of our country calls.”<\/em> And then Gaetz blatantly plagiarized his Messiah-a-Lago (video below)<\/em> saying that…<\/p>\n “When you see the leaks and the lies and the falsehoods and the smears, when you see the anonymous sources and insiders forecasting my demise, know this: They aren’t really coming for me. They’re coming for you. I’m just in the way.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Sound familiar?<\/p>\n SOUND OFF | Following Wednesday\u2019s impeachment, this was President Donald J.
