​A Criminal And Two Sex Offenders Walk Into The U.S. Government...

      By now we know all we need to know ​- and for some of us, 'way more than wish we knew - about the next President, Donald Trump.

​        Everybody knows, for example, that Trump is a convicted criminal and a sex offender,* which sort of makes him two entities in one.

        Not that the majority of American voters care, obviously.
       Which might mean that, having put a sex offender in the White House, a majority of Americans may also not care that Trump just nominated a fellow sex offender, Florida Congressional Representative Matt Gaetz, 

...for the job of Attorney General.
       Here's what we know about Matt Gaetz:
      Though he is Trump's pick to become Attorney General, the person who will be head of the United States Department of Justice and will be the chief legal advisor to the President, after law school 42-year-old Matt Gaetz had about two years experience practicing law before he left the field to run for Congress.
      And though as Attorney General he will be the chief Federal law enforcement officer in the land, Matt Gaetz was accused by the Department of Justice (which as Attorney General he will now head) of child sex trafficking and statutory rape of a 17-year-old girl.  Gaetz was ultimately not charged, though his close associate and fellow party animal, Joel Greenberg, was charged and convicted of those same child sex crimes.
        But the U.S. House Ethics Committee took up where the Justice Department left off, and Matt Gaetz was under Congressional investigation for child sex abuse, illegal drug use, spending campaign funds on himself, accepting improper gifts, and passing lewd pictures and videos around the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives, among other charges.
         The House Ethics report on Matt Gaetz was due to be released tomorrow, actually; but then yesterday  Gaetz resigned from the House when Donald Trump nominated him for Attorney General. And so Republican House Speaker and self-proclaimed paragon of Christian morality Mike Johnson, 

...announced that the investigation on Gaetz was over and the House report would not be released.        
       As one would expect, Matt Gaetz is staunchly pro-life. At a speech for Turning Point, a conservative action organization, 

...Matt Gaetz said of women who march for abortion rights:
     “(They) are just disgusting. Why is it that the women with the least likelihood of getting pregnant are the ones most worried about having abortions? Nobody wants to impregnate you if you look like a thumb. These people are odious from the inside out. They’re like 5′2″, 350 pounds, and they’re like, ‘Give me my abortions or I’ll get up and march and protest.' A few of them need to get up and march — they need to get up and march for like an hour a day. Swing those arms, get the blood pumpin’, maybe mix in a salad.”
         So that's Matt Gaetz, Donald Trump's nominee for U.S. Attorney General, in a nut shell. 
        Which, of course, begs the question: What does happen when a criminal and two sex offenders walk into the government?            

    (Sigh). I guess all we know for sure is that they walk away from their crimes      scott-free.
​
   *As determined in the civil sex assault case brought against him by E. Jean Carroll, to whom he was sentenced to pay $83.3 million in punitive damages. (But which he probably won't end up paying, anyway. Donald Trump never pays, right?).
