Ethics Violations Committee says otherwise. There's a large portion of the GoP that will cheer his removal and the Democrats won't even think twice about voting for him to get booted.
That would risk pissing off the MAGA base. Like really piss them off. I doubt they would make that move, but it's possible.
I don't think the MAGA base is going to matter much. There's not nearly enough of them in the House to save Gaetz from the Democrats and POd Republicans. If that vote gets called Gaetz is going to get the boot. This is an opportunity for establishment / moderate Republicans to throw a lasso around the Chaos Caucus.
And then trump rails against anyone who voted out his buddy Gaetz and calls them RINO's and they get primaried.
