Rep. Matt Gaetz: We Are Getting “Weak” Politicians “Hiding In Basements”

On Fox Across America with Jimmy Failla, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) talked about his new book Firebrand and how Joe Biden shows how “weak” politicians in the face of other countries.

“You don’t get to put a lid on your day at 9:20 when you’ve got to go negotiate consequential trade deals that mean a promotion or not for an American family, investment or not in an American business, offshoring or onshoreing of jobs. These are serious matters. These are serious times. We have a real competitor in China and we got to field the A-team. We can’t go in and settle for basement-dwelling Joe Biden at a time of such import for our nation.”

We deserve politicians bold enough to go and shape the future and we need a media objective enough to report on it. Instead, we get the perverse opposite. We get politicians who are weak and limp-wristed and hiding in basements. And we have a media that views their role as making the news rather than reporting on the news.”
