Congressman Matt Gaetz appeared onstage for day 2 of Trumpworld’s CPAC bash in Washington DC, and took the opportunity to deliver a rambling tirade against Democrats that began with him celebrating his own political survival.
The Florida Republican found himself at the centre of an investigation headed by the Department of Justice into his alleged travels with a teenage girl for the purposes of sex while she was underage. Mr Gaetz has vehemently denied the charges, but his longtime associate Joel Greenberg would end up swallowed up by the investigation anyway and sentenced to a lengthy prison term after supposedly cooperating for months with prosecutors.
