Gaetz asked Trump for a pardon and Trump ignored him. Now, Gaetz is doing the next best thing of lawyering up.

 

Rep. Matt Gaetz has hired two top New York defense lawyers, one of whom represents the Trump Organization in a criminal probe, to represent him as he faces a federal sex trafficking investigation.

 

The retention of the Trump firm’s lawyer Marc Mukasey is noteworthy not only for Mukasey’s record of handling serious criminal cases but also because Gaetz is among former President Donald Trump’s most ardent defenders.

 

The moves came as a lawyer for Gaetz’s friend Joel Greenberg indicated Thursday that Greenberg plans to plead guilty in a federal case in which he has been charged with sex trafficking of an underage girl, wire fraud, stalking and trying to bribe a federal official. When does a friend turn on you? When faced with years in prison. So much for friends.....

 

Will keep you posted so stay tuned.......
