I’ve been kind of following the George Santos thing and if there’s one person who’s psyche I cannot figure out it’s him.
The dude lied his ass off to get elected. Lots of company there, but he lied about verifiable parts of his own personal history. Where he’d worked, where his family was from.
That’s all crazy enough, but today I read he had someone from his campaign impersonate McCarthy’s chief of staff to do fundraising. That’s fraud I think, but the absolute gall is astounding.
And now everyone is calling for him to resign. His own party, Democrats, everybody. And he says he won’t.
What’s going through this guys mind? How can you go sit in a room with 400+ other people every day who all despise you and know you’re a liar? It’s one thing to vehemently disagree with someone; plenty of people don’t like AOC, Babert, Bernie, etc. But the level of awkwardness that has to come from having lied as much as he did, caught, and then just saying “no, I’m staying”… I can’t even imagine it. The dude must not have a speck of pride. Or he’s messed up in the head.
Edit: and I guess he forged checks in Brazil? Like wtf is this guy’s end game?
