Rep. Matt Gaetz eyes presidential run in 2024

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Rep. Matt Gaetz, the Florida Republican who is currently the subject of a Justice Department investigation into whether he had sex with a 17-year-old girl and transported her across state lines in violation of sex trafficking laws, is considering a run for president in 2024.

Gaetz made that disclosure Wednesday in a text message to the New York Post.

“I support Donald Trump for president. I’ve directly encouraged him to run and he gives me every indication he will,” Gaetz told the paper. “If Trump doesn’t run, I’m sure I could defeat whatever remains of Joe Biden by 2024.”

One of Trump’s most vocal supporters in Congress, Gaetz has embarked on an “America First” speaking tour alongside Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene that has all the hallmarks of a budding presidential campaign, albeit one that also helps lay the groundwork for Trump’s possible run in 2024.

1. Maybe a trump-Gaetz ticket, both running from jail

[WarGamer]

2. Even before his adventures with the young lady...

He never had a chance.

[Lochloosa]

13. We heard the same sentiments about The Loser.

[zipplewrath]

14. He had a constituency

I will say, Trump had a "fan base" before running. Gaetz on the other hand, is barely known outside the truly faithful and I'm not sure that Trump will endorse anyone that could truly "replace" him. So Gaetz and Desantis probably don't have a chance of getting any real support/endorsement from Trump.

3. Well, Trump opened the sewer grating for every skeevy sex offender with delusions of adequacy.

Now they all want to run for President.

OTOH, I have noticed that the "I wouldn't trust Bill Clinton with my daughter" idjits have shut their filthy smokeholes, likely for good.

4. He will have a hard time

Running from Leavenworth.

[ecstatic]

9. How can this be happening? Why do the

seditionists and now child molesters feel so empowered and bold? They should be shunned from society and hiding under a rock somewhere!

[smirkymonkey]

31. That's what I would like to know.

They are all acting like they are teflon. Like there is nothing that can possibly stop them and their insane ambition.

[Irish_Dem]

[tanyev]

[Treefrog]

26. all right bring it on

[patphil]

27. I think the best ticket for the Republicans in 2024 is,,,

Matt Gaetz and Marge TG. That would give every Republican a chance to vote for what they truly hold near and dear.

It would be the end of the Republican Party.

[toughtony]

29. The Pile Of Garbage Tour

This guy thinks he has trumps popularity--HE DOESN'T. The voters in his district don't like him. Oh yeah he does have some supporters but a good republican candidate would kick his butt. He really doesn't know how bad he looks. And carrying around that disgraced toad is helping him.

WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO INDICT THIS GUY?

[Progressive Jones]

30. He won't be allowed to run. Believe me. nt

[llashram]

33. at least

70 million would vote for him and the crazy from Georgia, MTG.
