His career is politics and being a politician. He needs to keep the outrage up so he can get more campaign donations and be paid for speaking engagements.




I keep seeing a lot of statements like this about him and a lot along the lines of "he's just telling people what they want to hear."

If that's the case, why aren't other people saying it and acting along similar lines of "what people want to hear"?

He's railing about spending. People have been saying here that republican voters don't really WANT spending cuts.

The narrative doesn't jibe to me.

It could be that he's the leader and the messaging runs through him.

He's genuine and passionate about this.

He's doing it to continue to raise his profile and fundraising.

He could be an attention whore that is playing people while taking their money.

Or some combination of the above.

Time will tell if he is a true believer or not.

The people here who attack Gaetz don’t want spending cuts. They want party centric rule.

They just won’t admit it.

They see themselves as having a future.

Gatez's future was kneecapped by an unfair scandal, but he's capped.
