Florida Republican Matt Gaetz comes to the defense of. . . Katie Hill (Yes, you read that correctly)

Well, we didn’t expect to see this one.

Here’s Florida Republican Matt Gaetz defending his Democratic colleague Katie Hill:

This is just absurd. The only person who seems to have a gripe is @RepKatieHill’s soon-to-be ex.

Who among us would look perfect if every ex leaked every photo/text?

Katie isn’t being investigated by Ethics or maligned because she hurt anyone – it is because she is different. https://t.co/Czrc2k8z8X

Gaetz added:

I serve on Armed Services with Katie and while we frequently disagree on substance, she is always well-prepared, focused and thoughtful.
