Exchange between Rep. Matt Gaetz and Gen. Milley

Exchange between Rep Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Gen. Mark Milley.

Gaetz: "You spent more time with Bob Woodward on this book than you spent analyzing the very likely prospect that the Afghanistan government was going to fall immediately to the Taliban. Didn't you?"

Milley: "Not even close, Congressman."

Why is he still sitting there? Oh forgot, politicians don’t get punished.

[mariarosalinalopez]

He is so despicable!! He loves to cut off anyone who starts speaking

[AOXOMOXO]

Mat Gaetz, who never served a day in his life, but probably was in the kid in the high school debate club that tried to win by yelling the loudest.

A boy who's daddy got him everything vs. a real man. I'll let you figure out who is who.

[georgiannallegar]

Bob Woodward and Robert Costa would like to thank the congressman for the free advertising

[johnwilson]

I believe Matt is still young enough to be drafted . God forbid he would ever enlist.

[TheWildcardChampion]

I wonder how pointed the questions would have been if LtCol Stuart Scheller had been given this forum?

[drethomas]

I love how Gen. Milley keeps his composure and Secretary Austin's resting face.

[bettymiller]

Put that Rep on the battlefield he would run like a scared rabbit these man do what has to be done and they don’t make decisions alone so why aren’t they all there you couldn’t do there job for a hour

[dlev]

Holy smokes - I admire Milley’s restraint, particularly after the initial question

[joeytosoung]

My God, as a Veteran it is unthinkable to be obnoxious and mock a General. This fragile prick that fools around with underage girls hiding in safe comfortable walls wanting to play tough on camera trying to talk down to a man that has to deal with the unpredictable chaos of combat is painful to watch. Whose fellow Republicans should have checked him

Kid needs to save his breath for when he goes to trial

[pamyuhnke]

Gaetz is the poster child for "don't you know who my daddy is?!?!".

[Mikey__Times]

How about having some respect for a man who devotes his entire life to keeping our country safe and defends our freedom. If you have concerns about his actions or decision making that’s fine, but he deserves to be treated like an adult, at minimum, not a 5 year old kid. Incredibly rude and offensive and I’m not even from a military family.

[ralphvalente]

Serve Matt his subpoena so we can throw him in jail for ignoring it.

[Johanmiami]

Isn’t it awesome watching the people who take our money constantly work against us. How great….

[moonkey]

Damn! Matt just skips from Biden to Obama like there was no other president in Wait, technically 😂

[JohnDough-yrzt]

Yeah you’re right Matt, smart people are stupid and you’re a very stable genius

[LacosteAlain]

We can see and feel EVIL in GAETZ'eyes !

[gersldinenelsegundo]

Wow, I am so shocked he is allowed to speak to people this way
