The other funny thing about this scandal is that the so-called sting involving the father allegedly didn’t produce a smoking gun. Apparently, it just involved what could be strategising about how to deal with the allegation of sex-trafficking up to and including the far-fetched possibility of a pardon from Biden, and what the cost of those strategies might be. The problem for Gaetz is that those discussions were par for the course amongst Trump allies and donors, so it’ll be hard for the prosecution to prove that in this case the alleged offender(s) weren’t crisis PR guys.
