A video from 2018 shows a dressed-down Matt Gaetz coaching Ron DeSantis on how to debate.
Gaetz, wearing a Nirvana shirt and flip flops, tries to advise DeSantis about his tone.
Gaetz is also seen slumping onto the podium midway through debate prep.

In a five-year-old video that's recently surfaced, Rep. Matt Gaetz can be seen serving "college kid in crisis" while coaching Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on how to debate his gubernatorial opponent.
