image sourced from original article at Former Republican Congressman and television host Matt Gaetz appeared on Tucker Carlson's podcast to make bold predictions about the upcoming midterm elections. Gaetz forecasted that Republicans would lose their majority in the House of Representatives, leading to Hakeem Jeffries becoming the speaker. He suggested that Democrats' control would ultimately backfire, resulting in their loss in the next presidential election and possibly paving the way for JD Vance to win in 2028.
Gaetz also speculated about the possibility of Steve Bannon running for president with a platform focused on wealth taxation. During the interview, Gaetz addressed past allegations against him and claimed that an Israeli government official was involved in efforts to silence him, though he maintained his support for Israel while criticizing its current leadership. Gaetz resigned from Congress last year, and his seat was subsequently filled by Jimmy Patronis.
