Gaetz is meeting with GOP senators to address these accusations. Symone Sanders Townsend, on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," questioned why Gaetz's wife has not defended him amid the allegations. She also mentioned Fox News host Pete Hegseth, who is dealing with a police report of an alleged sexual assault. Sanders criticized Gaetz's qualifications for the attorney general position, noting he lost his law license in Florida and had to have it reinstated. She emphasized that the allegations add to concerns about his suitability for the role.
