I think that's probably giving him too much credit. He's not really a democratic politician, he's a fascist.

My bet is that he is constructing a loyalty test to weed out opposition within the ranks. Anyone who doesn't fully give into the cult of personality gets put on a list of people he can't trust.

He doesn't really care about gaetz, but gaetz has pissed off enough people within the party to act as a good tool to test the waters of his own party.
