Some people really have no sense of self-awareness, or what looks good.

Last week, Republican Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida shared a photo of himself alongside a fellow Republican. Like most of his selfies, he thought the photo was pretty great.


It's possible he thinks this is the best photo ever. Those who saw it on social media failed to agree, however.

Gaetz captioned the photo:

"I will never take a cooler photo than this."

In the photo, GOP Congressman and Trump superfan Gaetz appeared on a couch alongside Kimberly Guilfoyle, whose latest infamous moment was yelling "The Best is Yet to Come" in a speech at the opening night of the 2020 Republican National Convention.

Though Guilfoyle was in a suitable enough position, with her legs crossed and one arm positioned over the back of the couch, Gaetz leaned back awkwardly toward Guilfoyle, until his head was pressed against her bosom. Then he threw in an uncomfortable-looking leg cross and Gaetz's head appearing to be in a strained position to complete the look.

For good measure, the Chief of Staff for the Trump Victory Finance Committee, Sergio Gor, stood behind the couch, in front of some very business-like wall art, leaning forward and smiling above the awkward pair.

Though Gaetz may have been going for more of a "Go Team!" vibe, people on Twitter just found it cringeworthy.



Twitter users agreed there were a lot of weird elements in this photo to comment on.



His head leaning up against Guilfoyle was really the finishing touch that no one wanted.



This wasn't the first cringeworthy photo Gaetz had taken and it almost certainly wouldn't be the last.




There were good, productive intentions behind the staging of this photo, right?

Otherwise, it just reeks of trying too hard combined with cringe. But maybe that's exactly what people should have expected from someone dubbing himself "Florida man" in his Twitter description.

Halle Berry Leaves The Internet Speechless With Risqué Video For Mother's Day

It's not news that Halle Berry promotes self-expression and body positivity, often by exposing a little more of herself to the public than people would expect.

But in recent years, from posting an Instagram photo of herself naked on a balcony while drinking a glass of wine, to this year's Met Gala dress that revealed enough of her crotch for people to worry about a wardrobe malfunction, Berry has gotten considerably more daring.

Pope Leo's Brother Sparks Outrage Over Vile Posts About Nancy Pelosi And Parents Of Trans Kids

The brother of Robert Prevost, a Chicago-born Roman Catholic Augustine cleric who last week became the newly-elected Pope Leo XIV, is facing heated criticism after some of his older Facebook posts resurfaced and revealed that he'd shared a video calling Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi a "drunk c**nt" as well as a transphobic meme about transgender children.

For instance, in an April 23 post, Prevost claimed that former President Obama desired “the total destruction of our way of life” and aimed to turn the U.S. into a dictatorship, adding that it would be “a racist one on top of it.” He had previously pushed a conspiracy theory alleging that “OBAMA WAS A CIA ASSET, PUT IN PLACE TO DESTROY THE USA.”
