 Note Gaetz's specific word choice:
• "I don't remember"
• "I doubt they occurred"
Nebulous statements are highly correlated with deception.

Moreover, Gaetz's use of "based on Cassidy's prior false statements" is a false premise.

Note too, Gaetz's use of "Cassidy" in this context, rather than "Ms. Hutchinson" is unprofessional, misogynistic, and manipulative. A profound red flag.
