George Santos has quickly become one of the most infamous members of congress in recent memory, facing calls to resign from Democrats and even fellow Republicans. So who exactly is this guy? How did he get to congress? And can he survive this onslaught?

New Zealand had this drama a few years ago. Turned out a high level public servant had lied about having a phd to get her job, and was calling herself a doctor. A simple check of the publicly available online university database would have shown she never graduated with a phd. When asked why, she claimed she only didn't graduate due to bureaucratic reasons, but she believed she had completed all the requirements anyway. The media took this and ran with "her degree was in her head" lol.

@@hughjass1044 “…keep getting away with it…” There was a time, in the pre-Trump time, when candidates who embellished their resume just a bit were sent packing. Howard Dean, running for the Democratic nomination, delivered a speech on Jan 19, 2004 wherein he got a little over-excited and added a scream… the Dean Scream. It got Democrats worried about his suitability and in days his run was over. If similar standards were upheld in 2015 Trump would have face-planted before he got to the bottom of the escalator.

@@CarFreeSegnitz People severely exaggerate how much the Dean scream actually affected things. He was projected to win Iowa, but returns mere hours before that rally had him at a distant third. His fall had nothing to do with his scream- in fact it was his own incompetence with the campaign he built, wasting all of the funds which he had built up before the primaries by the time of New Hampshire (the second primary at the time after Iowa). Instead, all of his momentum went to the far more charismatic John Edwards, who held many of the same policy positions. Now, it is also important to note that it never ruined his career. By primary’s end, he was chosen to lead the DNC as its chairman. And during that four year stretch, he was able to create his “50 State Strategy”, netting the Dems 13 Senate seats and over 50 House seats. The Obama campaign took from Dean’s policy positions but Obama himself being the charisma bomb he is was able to pull in more voters with that message- in short Dean helped the Dems so much as DNC Chairman that it’s hard to say anything conclusive about his 2004 campaign other than it was marred by mistake after mistake, but the torch would be carried on by Obama.

Absolutely true. So much fabrication is rooted in the post-modern drive to control the narrative, rather than deal with facts. It started from the left, but was adopted by conservatives trying to "teach the controversy" when they tried to inject "intelligent design" into biology classes. Of course this kind of lying found a lot of traction in politics. Lying and politics are friendly neighbors after all.

They have many, many similaroties, but overall I'd rate DeSantis as far more dangerous. The country probably cannot survive another term of the kind of bigotry, not so soon after Trump. There will be open civil war if he somehow makes it into office, unlikely as that may seem. Remember that Trump seemed like an absurd candidate too - right up until he won.

The fun part of this is that it involves the liar's paradox. Of course I'm lying. Everything I say is a lie. I mean, who is George Santos? Am I George Santos? I don.t think so but then maybe I'm lying. Under the current circumstances, who can trust anything?

This is just a small selection his lies. There's a video of him being interviewed by a Brasilian podcast where he criticises illegal immigrants who want to get citizenship because its "wrong to begin a relationship with a lie". In the same podcast he claimed to have got mugged and had his shoes stolen in central New York, and to have survived an assassination attempt. Obviously neither of those things happened.

Just a note - the district lines at 3:50 are wrong. That's the current NY-03 district - the one Santos represents now. In 2020, when Santos lost, it was different (more centered along the northern coast of Manhattan), and more Democrat-friendly.
