Rep. Gaetz Says He’d Resign Seat If Asked to Defend Trump at Trial
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), an outspoken ally of former President Donald Trump, said he would give up his House seat if he was asked to defend Trump at the impeachment trial, which is slated to begin next week.
In a Feb. 3 interview on the “War Room” podcast, Gaetz said some House colleagues had discussed whether they could represent Trump during the trial. They were told by the House Committee on Ethics that they couldn’t do so as sitting members of the House, he said.
Gaetz took issue with the current strategy employed by Trump’s legal team and said he would “absolutely” resign if called upon.
