Matt Gaetz Reads Insurrectionist Democrats the Riot Act

Brandon Morse at RedState:

Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz... made it clear that while the riot at the Capitol was wrong, the Democrats were literally cheering on months of destruction and violence during the Black Lives Matter riots.

And the Democrats really didn;t like hearing about it.

During his time, Gaetz made it clear that rioting in any form is wrong, including the riots at the Capitol, but he had a message for Democrats.

"But make no mistake, the left in America has incited far more political violence than the right," said Gaetz. "For months our cities burned, police stations burned, our businesses were shattered, and they said nothing!"

"Or, they cheerlead for it, and they fundraised for it, and they allowed it to happen in the greatest country in the world," he continued.

At this point, you could hear a commotion rising in the background as Democrats began to yell at Gaetz.

"Some have cited the metaphor that the President lit the flame," said Gaetz, his voice rising to drown out the shouting.

"They lit actual flames!" he shouted. "Actual fires and we had to put them out!"

Gaetz was cut off at this point.
