Seriously. In the frame on Gaetz’s desk, signed by Trump with “Matt, This is GREAT – Keep Fighting – You will WIN!” is a printout of the April 21, 2021 Washington Examiner article “Gaetz launches six-figure ad in district defending himself” against the then-recent revelation the MAGA bro Congressman was under a federal criminal investigation for sex trafficking, an investigation that is still ongoing as prosecutors apparently work to secure testimony against him. Trump highlighted the paragraph that said “‘Big government, Big Tech, big business, big media, they’d all breathe a sigh of relief if I was no longer in the Congress fighting for you,’ Gaetz says in the ad. ‘They lie about me because I tell the truth about them, and I’m not going to stop.'”
