John,
MSNBC: “White women in the United States have often wielded their collective power to support and amplify white male oppressors. Gaetz is just the latest politician to receive their cover.”
Accusations against Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz are only growing, John. He's being accused of having sex with a minor, protecting revenge porn, and harassing lawmakers during his time in the Florida state legislature.
But that still hasn't been enough to spark national outrage. Gaetz should have been expelled from Congress the moment these investigations began. Instead, he was invited to headline a Women for America First summit, organized by one of the groups responsible for the January 6 insurrection.
We saw a similar trend with Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020. White women, even some Democratic white women, are consistently willing to overlook sexism and misogyny if it means protecting white men in power.
Given that Gaetz is still laying low in Congress, we need to know if, like us, our supporters refuse to let another misogynist stay in power. Please let us know where you stand now:
John, should Matt Gaetz be allowed to remain in Congress?
Thank you.
A Woman's Place
