I thought we were done with Clubhouse tonight, but now Matt Gaetz is talking to Brad Parscale. Matt wants Brad to figure out how to separate GOP fundraising to get non-Trump supporters out of Congress.
Matt Gaetz says Republicans in Congress who take money from Facebook or Twitter are clearly not really supporting Donald Trump.
I missed most of this Clubhouse room, and it's wrapping up now. Moderators are JENNA ELLIS - yeah her, Brad Parscale, Lynne Patton, and Katrina Pierson.
Matt Gaetz is calling Brad tomorrow to talk strategy.
Matt has now moved to ALX's room, where Roger Stone was speaking earlier.
They were still talking about how horrible Jared Kushner is when Matt came in. Matt says he only came here because he thought Roger was here.
Matt Gaetz says Trump had to rely on "the Wisconsin mafia, Reince Priebus" to get to the White House.
Interesting choice of words, Matt.
Matt Gaetz: Based on where they stood on foreign policy, you could predict which Trump administration officials "would fuck us in the end."
"I think Kelly Loeffler still thinks that she's going to run for the United States Senate... How many times does she need to lose? She couldn't win." - Matt Gaetz
Q: Isn't Mike Pompeo a neo-con?
Matt Gaetz: "Yeah! Oh, of course! Look, we're off the record here." (No, you're not.) "In [Syria, Venezuela, etc] there was the Pompeo-Pence interventionist perspective, and other times you had, you know, me, General Dunford on the other side."

Roger Stone on Clubhouse just now says he would get behind Matt Gaetz if Trump decides not to run for president in 2024.
Stone also said he wasn't invited to #CPAC but tossed a Hyatt staffer $100 to let him inside.
A Trump fan speaking with Roger Stone on Clubhouse says she's pretty sure QAnon is a Democratic psyop to make Trump supporters complacent. I have never heard a crazier take except for on @patriottakes.
1. In an appearance on Howard Stern in 2001, A.J. Benza revealed that Trump would brag about having sex with women in Russia. "The girls have no morals," Trump allegedly said. trumpfile.org/a-j-benza-trum…

CPAC is a global operation of the American Conservative Union and other Council for National Policy organizations. CPAC, by itself, plays a role in politics spanning four continents but claims to represent small town Americans.
Back in 1975, CPAC was described as a network of counter activist groups — the ACU, Human Events, and other organizations — interested in making the Republican party a new establishment, “The New Right.” They may be closer to reaching that goal than ever before.
