Of course, but then you'd have to posit that voters are more repulsed by sex crimes than financial ones, and then you have to remember who is going to be sworn in on Jan. 20th.

Trump is nothing like Gates either; Gaetz is in an entirely different class of scumbag

I'd like to believe that, but didn't he just win re-election? My point is that voters have a tolerance for scumbags that is beyond what I, an Illinois voter, could have ever imagined. Apparently it has to do with the price of eggs. As bad as the accusations against Gaetz are, I think that if he ran a campaign that targeted liberals and wokeism and immigrants, he could win a statewide race in

FL, even against a moderate Democrat with no scandals in their past.

disagree but the Democratic candidate would be the key; Mayor of Jacksonville or Tampa would be the best choice against Gates imo(but honestly I don't think Gaetz ever gets a statewide nomination especially if he runs against Casey DeSantis, who's much more popular than her idiot husband)
