Gaetz makes an ass of himself......again.

Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., upbraided Democratic Intelligence Counsel Dan Goldman on Monday to demand that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., take the stand to testify in the ongoing impeachment inquiry into President Trump.

“We want Schiff in the chair! Not you!” Gaetz said to Goldman.

Gaetz’s pronouncement, which interrupted the questioning by the ranking Republican on the Judiciary Committee, Doug Collins of Georgia, drew strong condemnation from House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., who warned the Florida lawmaker that interruptions would not be tolerated.

“You’ve been warned before,” Nadler said after slamming the gavel. “You cannot simply yell out.”

Then he can go on Fox in sackcloth and ashes, lamenting how mean the Democrats are (and for no good reason!) and how he didn't do nothin'!

Nadler has to be the adult in the room when the children are misbehaving.

When does he ever NOT make an ass of himself? God, I can't stand that little drunken smug-ass wanker.

He seems short on intellect, skill, political chops so another person that made it in life with the help of daddy that wants to investigate Hunter Biden's corruption. Gimme a damn break.

"Old Sparky."

For you non-Floridians, "Old Sparky" is the Florida nick-name of the no-longer used execution device, the electric chair.
