“Minerva at Midnight”

(I’m usually posting a story at midnight so I might as well make it a feature, not a bug)

Matt Gaetz said that if Trump doesn't run for president in 2024, he will. More likely is a Trump-Gaetz ticket of vice-pedos.

Not going to RT the video of Gaetz’s remarks this evening…but it’s worth remembering that one of the biggest mistakes many observers made a few years back was not taking Trump’s words seriously. They don’t hide the ball, folks. They put it all right out there.

Those in Matt Gaetz's inner circle see the possible indictment of Donald Trump as giving a big boost to the embattled Florida Congressman's VP chances. "If there's a felon at the top of the ticket, why not have another felon as the number two?" said one advisor.
