“He may be facing allegations of sex trafficking of a minor, but Rep. Matt Gaetz still has his eye on a 2024 presidential bid – as long as former President Donald Trump does not decide to run. ‘I support Donald Trump for president. I’ve directly encouraged him to run and he gives me every indication he will,’ the Florida Republican texted The Post Wednesday. ‘If Trump doesn’t run, I’m sure I could defeat whatever remains of Joe Biden by 2024.’ Gaetz, who said he hasn’t formally launched an exploratory committee, is facing a federal investigation into allegations of sex trafficking of a minor, a sexual relationship with a minor and potential public corruption in addition to a Congressional Ethics investigation. He has vehemently denied any wrongdoing” – New York Post.
