The strange case of George Santos

[madbluboy]

I can’t speak on Baggers’ behalf, but I believe it.

There used to be a time where politicians would be ashamed when they were caught out in lies and their parties would cut ties with them if those lies were big enough. But Trump showed you don’t even need to apologise for your lies: instead double down and boast about annoying those on the other side of politics.

Trump ended up pushing the stop the steal lie and made it a loyalty test. He ran Republicans who wouldn’t push the lie out of Congress. And he made it the centrepiece of his re-election campaign while refusing to reveal any policies other than saying he’d make America great again again. How could you not draw a line from Trump to Santos?

Just pick your team and ignore their lies.
