I think Gaetz has realized that Trump is his only possible path to power. With his past misdeeds, running a traditional campaign is a complete no-go for him.

He absolutely needs to leverage that base of insane people who will vote as they're told, no matter what, which Trump has hypnotized.

I suspect that's why he's also trying to copy the looks of one of those crazy televangelists.
