Matt Gaetz Gets Torn Apart After Complaining That McCabe Didn’t End Up ‘Behind Bars’

Republican Rep. from Florida Matt Gaetz took to Twitter on Saturday to complain that former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe did not end up in prison – despite the DOJ finding zero evidence against him that would conclude in jail time.

“It’s a disgrace that Andrew McCabe isn’t going to be behind bars,” Rep. Gaetz posted on Twitter. “We can’t live in a world where an old FBI business card doubles as a ‘get out of jail free card’ when people break the law.”

Behind bars? He hasn't even been charged with a crime, let alone convicted.

Now on the other hand, Roger Stone, Michael Flynn…..

It’s a disgrace that we have DUI infected congress man lecturing us. He should be in prison.

That's what happens when you don't have the evidence to convict someone, not like you that has his daddy pay his way out of a DUI.

It’s a disgrace that Andrew McCabe HAD TO BE SUBJECTED TO THE WRATH OF KNOWN MOBSTER DONALD TRUMP.

We can’t live in a world where FBI LAW ENFORCERS BECOME A TOOL FOR A MAD KING TO POLITICIZE. TRUMP CORRUPTION HAS GONE TOO FAR.

ps.. BLOODLUST

People like Gaetz are helping Trump convert our country into an authoritarian state, in which the leader can use government institutions to go after personal enemies and enrich himself. Gaetz’ treachery will not be forgotten. Shame on him!

He did not break the law. I know you have forgotten everything you might have learned in law school but this is basic stuff. pic.twitter.com/QLDhUhzNKI
