"I hear @RepMattGaetz has criticism of hard-earned success — he should try building a business that gains value‚ it’s more gratifying than living off your daddy's money‚" Mullin tweeted.Gaetz replied to Mullin's tweet by sharing the graphic about his net worth."The only thing I criticized were your stock trades while a member of congress. I want to ban those trades. You cashed in and made millions‚" Gaetz also responded.
