Consider this:Arizona elected a guy named Ev Meacham who was Mormon/LDS, people may have expected good things from him...
Well, guess what happened.

This is why I try not to think about current politics.

Republicans suck!

It really does get tiresome living in a state that is objectively moronic. I feel like I should apologize to people when I meet them. "Hi, I'm Scott. I'm from Florida. I'm so sorry for all the stupid shit that happens there."

Texas knows what I'm talking about too.

Yep. We elect some real shitheads in this state. Considering the voting process is rigged AF, we don't have many options.

How long do you think it will it will be before Rep. Gaetz's own mistresses will be revealed?

I agree!

Gaetz should be censured by the House immediately for attempting to intimidate a witness, and warned that if he repeats such behavior again he will be expelled from the House .

I’d say “thuggish”.

Between this loser with his drunk tweeting and his daddy trumpski tweeting on adderall, they’re such a freaking mess.

At what point does this behavior catch up to the GOP? Seriously are we that stupid as a nation?

At this point Gaetz made a threat to Cohen. There is simply no other way to take that. Gaetz should know better and we all know that he does. As for him, Sanders, and others claiming that Cohen is a liar we have to consider that Cohen was Trump's fixer. This means that Cohen knew all the secrets and any time something needed fixed, Cohen would fix it. Once that soaks in, how would you call Cohen a liar? Who do we suspect the real liars to be?

The problem with the people elected to power is that they want that power. The people who would be best in politics never run because they have no desire to rule over their fellow humans.

If you will pardon the expression: Amen to that!

I heard his speech he gave giving all the reasons for not believing Cohen. He made some good points. The problem is, he was making that speech as a member of Congress. As a private citizen, talk away. As a member of Congress, shut the hell up. Probably a rule violation, at minimum, possibly a crime.

He is just a disgusting piece of work. Shame on him and the whole repulsican party/cult.

How is he not guilty of witness tampering?
Scumbag!

Gaetz is slime. He is the stereotypical sleazy politician.

Dude got busted for DUI in Florida. Refused to take the field sobriety test, which constitutes an automatic arrest for suspicion of DUI.
The charges were dropped.
His father was a State Senator and he's used to getting out of whatever trouble he has gotten himself into.
