He's working hard at getting into Trump's fav/fav/fav group. He can't succeed with only his own actions and he know it.

He and Devin Nunes are twins by different mothers.

Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz equates antifa with terrorists and asks to 'hunt them down like we do those in the Middle East'

Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz suggested Monday that protesters demonstrating against police brutality are part of antifa and should be hunted down like terrorists.
"Now that we clearly see Antifa as terrorists, can we hunt them down like we do those in the Middle East?" Gaetz tweeted.


The Florida congressman is the third Republican official to suggest using violence against demonstrators who have taken to the streets and, in some cases, been subjected to heavy-handed crowd-control tactics by law-enforcement officials.


Earlier Monday, Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton advocated for using military force against protesters and indicated that they should be shown no mercy.


President Donald Trump also implied that protesters should be forcefully subdued, telling governors and law-enforcement officials, "You have to dominate."
