Woman Comes Forward About Trump Favorite Matt Gaetz: 'He Had Sex with Underage Girl'

new york - Allegations against Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz continue to surface as a woman steps forward claiming he had sexual relations with a minor at a party in 2017.

Donald Trump's pick for Attorney General remains in the spotlight as two women, through their attorney, allege that they engaged in paid sexual activities with Matt Gaetz. One of them witnessed him having sex with a 17-year-old girl by the pool at a party in 2017. The underage teenager was a friend of one of the witnesses who came forward. Gaetz, then a Congressman, has consistently denied the rumors.

The lawyer representing the two sex workers expressed concerns about Gaetz, who was a favorite of Trump, on CBS News, ABC News, and CNN. The Department that Gaetz was set to lead previously investigated him for allegations that also included alleged drug use, but no charges were brought.

Gaetz, from Florida, is facing backlash within his own party, raising doubts about his chances of being approved by a majority of Republican senators. This poses a challenge for Trump, as his party's Senate majority must confirm his nominations for cabinet positions.

A spokesperson for Team Trump dismissed the allegations as lies, asserting that Gaetz will be the next Attorney General and is the right person for the job, despite the controversy.
