Dave Aronberg: If Biden DoJ Decided Not to Bring Charges Against Matt Gaetz, Trump’s DoJ Won’t Either

EXCERPT:

ARONBERG: “I think that if the Merrick Garland Justice Department decided they would not bring charges against Matt Gaetz, then the Donald Trump Justice Department certainly won’t either. Especially because, remember, Matt Gaetz was appointed Attorney General of the United States by Donald Trump until he had to withdraw his nomination, even after all this stuff was out there. So no, I think at the federal level there will not be a prosecution of Matt Gaetz. Now, it’s always possible that state prosecutors can prosecute Gaetz for the child sex trafficking. There is no statute of limitations for that crime, but you’d have to have solid proof that not only did he have sex with the then 17-year-old girl, but that he paid her. And according to the report that has been released, at least a part, we know he paid her $400 in cash, not Venmo. The Venmo came later. So it’s going to be much harder to prove there was a payment of money in exchange for sex. So I don’t anticipate there will be criminal charges against Matt Gaetz, but this is the kind of thing that will live on in the court of public opinion.”
