Dana Milbank calls Matt Gaetz's attack on Hunter Biden "grotesque"

In WaPo, Dana Milbank calls Matt Gaetz "the most vulgar" legislator he's encountered in Washington. This is after Gaetz, who was arrested for DUI, attacked Hunter Biden for his (admitted) struggle with substance abuse.

"... Forget politics for a moment. Forget about impeachment. As a parent, as a person, I wonder: Where is Matt Gaetz’s humanity? ... There are good people on both sides of the aisle, but in the quarter-century I’ve covered Washington, Gaetz is among the most vulgar I have ever encountered. He invited a Holocaust denier to be his State of the Union guest. He led the Republicans’ storming of a secure hearing room, endangering government secrets. And now this. ... Exploiting this man’s addiction shows only that Gaetz has lost his soul."
