Scandal-plagued former Republican House Rep. and devout Trump loyalist Matt Gaetz pulled a stunt so creepy that even the MAGA crowd was left grossed out after he shared a rather evocative silhouette photo of a 25-year-old female reporter with a caption of fire emojis — often used to indicate that someone finds an individual attractive.
Yesterday morning, conservative Real America’s Voice reporter Natalie Winters shared a photo of herself to X (formerly known as Twitter) walking down a flight of stairs in dark lighting, creating a silhouette effect of the back of her body, and captioning the image, “omw to get retribution.”

Former Congressman Matt Gaetz almost instantly re-posted the photo, complete with his fire emojis caption:

It’s worth noting here that Gaetz has been under extensive investigation for literal sex crimes, including sex trafficking and rape of multiple underage girls.
The overall vibe of Gaetz’s post, especially when his sordid history is taken into account, was so gross that it even left the MAGA crowd with a bad taste in their mouths, chastising him in his comments section:
Why would you share a photo of a woman other than your wife @GingerLGaetz with fire? Not so cool, @mattgaetz not loving this one bit.

Bro. You –who Congress found to have paid a 17-year-old for prostitution– repost this photo with a hooker-vibe, after defending Andrew Tate who is charged with sex trafficking a minor.
Thick as thieves.
Did you know you’re married?

Is she trying to give off a prostitute vibe?

Suffice it to say, his comments section as a whole was quite the dumpster fire:
You literally got passed up for being a sexual deviant, yet here you are with shit like this. Get it together bro and lay off the drugs your eyes are sinking in your head

Your next victim?

Once again, Matt Gaetz shows the world who he really is…
