During his speech at the Republican National Convention, Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz fervently advocated for the reelection of President Donald Trump. Gaetz expressed his belief that Trump's leadership is essential for America's success, stating that with Trump as president, the country would be 'unstoppable.'
Gaetz, a staunch supporter of Trump, commended the president's choice of vice president, Sen. JD Vance, and emphasized the Republican Party's commitment to 'rescue and save' the nation, aligning themselves closely with Trump until the end.
Furthermore, Gaetz vowed to be Trump's unwavering ally in advancing key legislative priorities, such as implementing term limits in Congress and preventing lawmakers from transitioning into lobbying roles.
Having entered Washington in 2017 alongside Trump, Gaetz swiftly established his public persona by engaging in media appearances and forging a close relationship with the then-president.
Notably, Gaetz perpetuated falsehoods regarding the 2020 election, echoing Trump's baseless claims of electoral fraud. He also defended Trump following the violent insurrection at the Capitol on January 6, a stance that earned him praise from the former president.
Trump lauded Gaetz for his loyalty and support amid various controversies, highlighting their shared commitment to advancing the Trump administration's agenda.
