  1. Despite all the bad press, Matt Gaetz has trudged ahead, with rumors swirling that the controversial politician may run to unseat Florida Governor Ron DeSantis during the 2026 gubernatorial election, which he denies.

  2. “Controversial” – ShitMediaSpeak for “Fascist Douche”

  3. Maybe it’s just my area in FL, but here in the panhandle, he’s generally well likes by my coworkers and neighbors. Despite the accusations of dating a minor and that shit he pulled with the speaker of the house.

  4. November 2024, Florida voters reelect matt gaetz. They might hate him but that wont stop them from voting for him

  6. Floridians at large aren’t Matt Gaetz’s constituents. Doesn’t really matter what they think.

  8. They’ll still re-elect the alleged underage girl lover in his district, but I guess we won’t have to deal with him statewide?

    Who will be DeFuhrer’s successor in 2026, is the question? Abbott is King for Life in Texas w/no term limits, but who in Florida will succeed him?

  9. He is such a terrible person that it shows on his face. I wonder if Gaetz is legally married. He made quite a statement that he didn’t need legal documentation to call Nestor his son. Has anyone seen a marriage certificate?

  10. But was elected in 2016, and re-elected in 2018, 2020, and 2022. Until he’s thrown to the curb, I see Floridians being okay with him. Not a good look for Floridians.

  11. FL Congressional District 1 sure likes him though. And there live some of the dumbest, meanest, most uneducated, most fervently religious people in the entire state.

  12. The why the fuck do they keep voting for this asshole douchebag pedo?

  14. This story is a waste of ink. He will blow any democrat opponent out of the water. They may hate him, but they will continue to vote for him.

  16. Okay, so don’t vote for Gaetz. Why do Republicans make what is so simple so complicated?

  17. A poll of the whole state is somewhat meaningless (unless he eventually tries for higher office) because most of the state are not his constituents. He represents probably the reddest district in the state and one of the reddest in the country. He’ll have no trouble winning reelection.

  20. Then they should stop VOTING FOR the bastard. 🤦‍♂️

  21. Morons put a moron in office, now morons are upset? Morons.

  23. And yet they keep sending this piece of shit to Congress

  25. Not as much as they hate Democrats. The 2010s were an era of America ‘punishing’ the swamp / bureaucracy / big government by sending their worst to congress. I hope voters start realizing that they’re not punishing the government, they’re punishing themselves.

  27. Doesn’t matter, he’s got the Magic (R). These are the same people who can’t wait to vote for an insurrectionist rapist fraudster for President. They’ll do what Gaetz tells them.

  30. Hmmm. If there was only a democratic way to eliminate those who are up for re-election. Or perhaps, observe and report Gerry mandering district laws and enact equal voting rights in each district. Hmmmmm what a concept

  33. Unfortunately, a lot of his constraints are really racist. A (white) potato could get 45% of the Republicans to vote for it.

  36. I mean – they just voted him in over a scientist exposing government corruption. He had big pedo scandals that were closing in around him. They had every chance and I say this as someone from Florida.

  37. Who would tolerate a guy that practices sex trafficking minors across state lines?

  38. But their not going to vote for some hippy commie Democrat so…

  39. Ahhh, the exit poll votes show otherwise after elections … so kick rocks with your bogus poll numbers
