    one House Republican told White House correspondent and Fox anchor Jacqui Heinrich, “No one can stand him at this point. A smart guy without morals.”

    So… is it the “smart” bit that bugs these Republicans? Because the other bit surely can’t be the issue for them.

      It’s safe to assume they meant “smart” as in sarcastic.

      Conservatives love using it that way as an insult:

      Oh, so now you want to be smart, boy?

      I highly doubt their issue with Gaetz is his IQ, it’s that he won’t sit down and shut up when told.
