University of Virginia Political Science Chair Jennifer Lawless said Congressman Matt Gaetz’ controversy is a “moving time bomb,” as the Florida Republican has been said to be facing a Justice Department inquiry over sex with an underage girl.
“[Gaetz] has held fundraisers for Donald Trump - he actually went to Wyoming to stage an event against Liz Cheney when she voted for Trump’s impeachment so Gaetz has sort of portrayed himself as the next generation of the Trump movement,” said Lawless. “He’s a regular on Fox News, Newsmax…we’re talking ultra conservative in the Trump type of conservative world.”
