Santa, can I sit on your lap?

I don't like what you're implying, op.

I love fishing!

Daddy, can we go fishing?

Matching outfits!

Is Nestor the top?

We can talk about whatever “comes up” . . .

Take your son to work day....

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz wants the world to know about his large adult son, Nestor. And his announcement is now a Twitter copypasta.

Nestor's existence came up during a heated exchange about race and police reform between Rep. Gaetz and Rep. Cedric Richmond during a House Judiciary meeting on Thursday.

During the discussion on whether to label antifa, the decentralized political protest movement, as a terrorist organization, Richmond complained that the Republicans on the committee, who were all white, were stalling.

"You've never lived in my shoes, and you do not know what it's like to be an African American male," Richmond said. "And all I'm saying is if you are opposed to this legislation, let's just have the vote, but please do not come in this committee room and make a mockery of the pain that exists in my community."

Gaetz, who is white, asked Richmond if he was "certain that none of us have non-white children." The conversation blew up into yelling after that, and as usual, Gaetz lost his cool and made it a spectacle.

Until the meeting, Gaetz has not publicly acknowledged the fact that he has children. He followed up the meeting with a bizarre tweet on Thursday, in which he shared a selfie of his allegedly adopted son Nestor.

"We share no blood but he is my life," the representative wrote. "He came from Cuba (legally, of course) six years ago and lives with me in Florida. I am so proud of him and raising him has been the best, more rewarding thing I've done in my life."

It is unclear whether Gaetz has legal guardianship over Nestor, or whether he ever formally adopted him. In a video from December 2017, he refers to Nestor as his "helper."

His son Nestor also isn't listed on his website, but his dog, Scarlett, is.

[quote] Matt Gaetz only remembers his "non-white" kid when he's trying to win a debate (which he lost). Otherwise, poor Nestor goes back to being "local student" and isn't even listed on Gaetz's bio. His dog is listed. What a shitheel.— BrooklynDad_Defiant! (@mmpadellan) June 18, 2020

Among the confusion surrounding Gaetz's large adult son, his tweet became a Twitter copypasta. Twitter users started using his caption verbatim and pairing them with random photos of their large adult sons.

Even The Good Place actor Mitch Narito got in on it. That's his son, but not like his son.

Who is Nestor? No idea, but if there's anything to take away from this, it's that every Twitter user seems to have a secret adult son.

Nestor looks like he would be good in the sack.
