Trump loyalist Gaetz eyes Senate bid in Alabama
The Hill, Apr 4, 2019

Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz, one of President Trump’s most devoted loyalists on Capitol Hill who represents the Florida Panhandle, has told GOP colleagues he is considering moving across the state line to run for the Senate in Alabama in 2020, several House lawmakers told The Hill.

Some of those discussions took place as recently as Thursday. The rumor had been bouncing around the Capitol for weeks but took a more serious turn in recent days when Gaetz began privately discussing the idea with fellow lawmakers.

“He’s talking about running for Senate in Alabama. They have a one-day residency requirement there,” said a GOP lawmaker who knows Gaetz well. “POTUS [President of the United States] would probably endorse him.”

He's gonna want an underage girlfriend to relate to GOP voters.  Preferably a close cousin.

Who gets good conservative (liberty) ratings are Mike Lee and Rand Paul, remind me of how that is working. CR who does the ratings ran a positive article on Matt Gaetz.

Good point, especially about Mike Lee.
