Matt Gaetz – Chris Latvala Twitter Fights! Popcorn Anyone?

Matt Gaetz – Chris Latvala Twitter Fights!  Where’s My Popcorn! These two haven’t been very nice lately. They had better hope Santa is surfing the web and not working on his naughty list.

The brawl escalates!  Just when you thought Wendy’s instigated Burger King into a series of twitter fights, politicians Matt Gaetz and Chris Latvala show us what twitter is really for. 

Does Matt have a sex game with points assigned for conquests?

Matt Gaetz, a US Rep is accused of sleeping with his staff with the aid of a sex game. Sadly, LoveWorks does not carry the “Sleep with a Legislator Game – Gaetz edition”.

The twitter fights started of course with Matt shooting first and fellow state Representative Chris Latvala responding with somewhat of a launched missile.

The battleground for these twitter fights began on Twitter when his fellow state Rep, Chris Latvala clapped back, accusing Matt Gaetz of creating a game that has a point system which aids him in his quest for sleeping with interns, aides, married legislators, and lobbyists.

No such thing as a “harmless tweet”

It was a harmless tweet by Chris Latvala on Tuesday, prior to the state legislative session that inflamed this situation. The state Rep uploaded a picture of himself with liberal Rev. Al Sharpton, a political icon with the post showing that he was very happy to meet Sharpton.

Matt Gaetz who was in D.C. at the time of the post replied to the post saying that the Reverend Sharpton has called whites ‘interlopers’; called cops ‘pigs’; Greeks ‘homos’; and in active speech, “Jews as ‘diamond merchants.'”

 To cap the tweet, Gaetz said he was disgusted.

Before Matt Gaetz could catch his breath or grin at his wounded opponents, Chris Latvala already pulled the trigger on the ‘sex game with points’ accusation, bringing the twitter fights to the next level.

What we want to know is who else was participating in this game? Surely to be a competitive sport, there must be more than one player. Also, what did you get for the “points” — or was it like “Whose Line is it Anyway” where the “points don’t matter”?

Sex game accusations have been dogging Gaetz for years

This was not the first time someone mentioned the sex game. In 2013, Marc Caputo a then Miami reporter, said on Twitter that a reliable source confided in him about a ‘young male’ state Rep (believed to be Matt Gaetz) who plays a sex game with points. The points award system is designed to give one point for sex with a lobbyist, two point for sex with a staffer, three points for sex with a legislator, and six points for sex with a married legislator.

Matt Gaetz, in response, denied having any knowledge of the game or participating in it.

Shots were fired back and forth between the two Reps to the extent that family matters were brought online.

Like father, like son??

It was later discovered it was a long-standing feud since both fathers did not like each other.

It appears they passed it to their sons.  These twitter fights continued, but I will let you read about more of their barbs, including DUI arrests that disappeared, here.  It is not a twitter war I would want to start, or be caught up in!
