Liar Rep.-elect George Santos admits fabricating key details of his bio

If Biden can lie about his education and qualifcations as well as many other things involving his life while still being able to stay on as president, then so should Santos. It is like the Left only likes it when they can lie and get away with it, but others cannot.

 

Tulsi was very effective as usual, but Americans regularly vote for an elect known liars.

IMO, Santos should not resign and the election should mot be nullified.
Same goes for Biden, Blumenthal, Warren ... .

 

All I have is the original tweet and a discussion of Santos’ response to it…

Unfortunately, it would seem not. My understanding is that one small Long Island paper carried a story about it before the election, but none of the majors picked it up until too late…

 

He should be criticized for his actions. Why do you disagree?

 

Why shouldn't we criticize his lies? Make your case. Especially seeing as it is now looking like he even lied about his grandparents being Holocaust survivors and his mom being a 9/11 victim and his employees dying in the Pulse terrorist attack.

 

There really is no mechanism to recall him...
I can't imagine 2/3rds of the GOP-Led House voting to Expel...
He isn't going to resign (voluntarily)...
The expectation is that he will serve his Full 2 Years...

 

I did not see the Santos response.
Please copy/paste it up if you have a link.

 

Just as well. The voters can replace him in two years.
If we kicked out all the liars in our government we would have no government.

And as Dick Nixon said about one of his bad deeds: "That would be bad".

 

There's no doubt about it the guy is a lying scumbag but the what about ism is a valid point.

If you have a problem with people doing the same thing that you have no problem with people doing in your own party that is called hypocrisy and before you go pointing out the speck in your brother's eye you should probably think about mowing your own lawn first.

The Democrats are all pissed off about him but they could care less about the frequent lies of Joe Biden. Do you not see the hypocrisy or do you just not care?

Biden is several times the liar that guy has ever been. Or maybe he should have just claimed he was a Cherokee Indian or something...

 

Unfortunately, we the people don't care if anyone lies. At least not enough to force changes about lying.
How many years did it take for Alex Jones to pay for lying? A decade?

 

Go further and end political parties.
Let each candidate stand on their own platforms.

 

Funny. Your 2nd derail of your own thread. And on post # 20.
I guess this can be considered just a flamebait thread from the get go?

 

No I said there was a discussion of his response. The second post, I believe, talks about Santos blocking the person who revealed the original Instagram post from 2014…?

 

If he lied like this New York Republican....yes he should. Now, let's get back on topic (I really am getting jack of you and others deliberately taking threads off the rails) ~~ Do you agree Santos must resign?

 

Given the Brazilian background of his family, no it’s probably not….

 

It's a bit disingenuous to say "IF Biden did" simply because it's impossible to dethrone him But if it helps you sleep at night this will prolly not have any effect on your county!

 

While this guy seems like a real piece of ish, I don’t know about this specific one. It’s a supposed screenshot of a tweet, not an actual tweet, with someone discussing it 8 years later. While it could very well be true, this one smells a little off at the moment.

I personally would need more than a “screenshot” of something that was supposedly deleted in 2014. If there was an archive link posted of it(and the internet has it), that would truly give it some credibility. With all the extremely good fakery available, would need more than a screenshot.

 

So besides some link from Twitter have you ever proven that it was him?

Or is everything on Twitter suddenly true?

 

Thanks for the clarification. Santos should respond. Silence eventually becomes an admission.

 

Check out the comments on the GOP's latest poster boy who recovered from a brain tumor.

They lost their last poster boy, Madison Cawthorn.

Just the finest young men representing their generation, eh?


'George Santos claimed he had a brain tumor'

"Rep.-elect George Santos’ convoluted background and history has taken another curious turn."

"In a March 2020 video episode of the Empire State Conservatives Podcast — which has since been made private on YouTube — Santos tells the hosts that he “battled a brain tumor a couple of years ago.”

“I had radiation done, which really, really lowers your immunity in general,” Santos said, recounting his experience with COVID-19 in the early days of the pandemic.

Santos’ campaign did not respond to questions about when he was diagnosed, what treatment he received and where. Efforts to reach Santos directly were unsuccessful.

Santos admitted to fabricating key parts of his resume earlier this week, including his work history, religious background, education and real estate holdings. He’s now facing federal and local investigations."

Too funny, cause Trump supporters never cared about his pathological lying, then or now.

 

Directly back at you

 

Zilch to throw back because you've had years to address Trump and weren't bothered at all with his thousands of lies so pretending that it's of such a grave concern if Biden is found to have lied is absolutely hilarious. .

Trump's lies were so blatant and frequent that a data base was needed to keep track of them.

 

And then, about an hour after that, one of the "leaders" of the party she chose to join jumped down her throat...
