"Ellicott, who ran a collectibles store and lived with his mother, had no experience in taxation or government matters but earned a $97,248 annual salary as assistant deputy tax collectorly"
And yet somehow had the nickname "Big Joe." How come he got a cool nickname, and I didn't? And I moved out of the house at 18 and *didn't* run a collectibles store.
The thing I don't understand about Gaetz is why (allegedly) pay for it? I could see maybe a married politico doing it. Paying for the discretion and transitory nature. It'd be pure slime, but I could understand the motivations at some level. But Gaetz was young, powerful, ascendent, good-looking, and single. With big poofy-hair. And a celebrity. He should have to fight off women. Why pay?
