Matt Gaetz is mercilessly mocked over surprising new career move: ‘Not on my bingo card’

Former Attorney General pick Matt Gaetz has turned his eyes towards a new career after claiming he was forced to exit Congress due to a 𝑠e𝑥 ‘smear’ campaign.

Gaetz, sensationally dropped out of contention two days ago amid a sleuth of allegations including having 𝑠e𝑥 with a minor girl and and illicit drug use – which he has always denied.

He also withdrew himself from Congress for next year despite having been re-elected to the seat he vacated.

But while many kept wondering what he will do next, Gaetz has already made his big move.

The Florida senator has become the latest Republican to join Cameo – a website that lets ordinary people pay for video messages from celebrities.

Costing upwards of $525, fans can now receive personalized birthday and holiday wishes, pep talks, advice as well as roasts directed at other people by Gaetz.

He also answers questions and helps people improve their signature catchphrases. As of now, he has already released two pep talk videos and is yet to receive any reviews.

‘I served in Congress. Trump nominated me to be US Attorney General (that didn’t work out). Once I fired the House Speaker,’ is how Gaetz describes himself on his profile.

He also claims to be available 24 hours to make any kind of one and half minute video.

Gaetz’s latest endeavor has left many viewers feeling ‘pathetic’ and joking about the questions people could ask him.

One X user noted: ‘Someone ask him what he thinks the age of consent should be!’

While another pointed at capitalism and said: ‘God bless capitalism.’

‘He and George Santos. That would be huge,’ one X user even suggested.

Another simply said: ‘mega cringe’.

Previously, Gaetz told The Charlie Kirk Show that he will now work to recruit talent that could help support the new Trump administration.

He claimed he was the victim of a politically motivated campaign because of his key role in forcing out Kevin McCarthy as House Speaker – which led to him backing out.

But Gaetz was already a controversial choice from the outset as his resume lacked legal experience and he had been investigated by the department Trump had tapped him to run.

‘There is a play that is run in Washington when they’re trying to smear somebody and, you know, they go and dredge up false, years old allegations of the most salacious and click-baity flavor possible. And in this case, they were,’ he said.

‘Those allegations were coming from sources that Merrick Garland’s DOJ already deemed not credible.’

He ended up finding himself up against a politically motivated body, he continued, because he triggered the process that ousted McCarthy last year.

‘All of them were hand-picked by Kevin McCarthy and they had an axe to grind.

‘So that was going to serve as at least enough of a basis to delay my confirmation as attorney general.

‘If the things [in] the House Ethics report were true, I would be under indictment and probably in a prison cell,’ he said, according to clips shared first with DailyMail.com.

‘But of course, they’re false, because when you test them against other records, when you test them against other testimony, it all falls apart very quickly.’

Furthermore, he insists he could have answered all the allegations during his confirmation hearings but that the process would have dragged on, undermining Trump’s plans to begin his overhaul of government on day one.

‘And I could have answered all those questions. I could have engaged in a months long fact battle, but we don’t have months to go through that.

‘We’ve got to have an A.G,. ready to go day one to implement the immigration agenda and work on the other key policy deregulatory objectives of the president.’

He said he was encouraged by meetings on the Hill on November 2, when he met with the key senators who would help guide his confirmation.

But in the end he announced he was dropping out late November 21 morning. Trump moved swiftly Thursday to name former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi as a replacement for Gaetz.

The former Florida congressman said Bondi would be ready to get to work on day one.

‘My good friend Pam Bondi is going to be a phenomenal Attorney General for Donald Trump,’ he said.

‘She has the legal acumen. She hates criminals. She is a bright legal mind and a fellow Floridian.

‘So I think that even though the path will take me to a different station in life and a different place to fight for our agenda and President Trump, we’ve got a great person in place.’

Gaetz added that he was ready to serve Trump however he wanted.

‘I’m still going to be in the fight, but it’s going to be from a new perch,’ he said.

‘I do not intend to join the 119th Congress. There are a number of fantastic Floridians who’ve stepped up to run for my seat, people who have inspired with their heroism, with their public service.’
