One person who did make it was Gatz who brought along his loyal fianceé, Ginger Luckey. He posted a photo of the meeting with Trump on his social media. The meeting is interesting for a couple of reasons. For the past couple of months, Gaetz has been under investigation by the DOJ for allegedly having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old girl.

Earlier this year, when the news broke that Gaetz was being looked into by the Feds, it was reported that Trump had shut down a request for a pardon by Gaetz's team. The report was shut down by both parties but they were very careful with their wording.

It's clear that Gaetz never officially asked Trump personally but it's unclear if the matter was brought up by another party at some point

For his part, Gaetz says the entire thing is a conspiracy against him. He claims he is the target of an extortion plot to ruin his life. The DOJ has yet to bring charges against the politician.
