I assume all Dems would vote to expel so he wouldn’t even need a majority of his own party. Seems like it would be nearly unanimous, plus Santos’ own district’s voters and local GOP want him gone too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zsasz 199 Posted January 18, 2023 Sadly, this guys values seem right in line with a lot of RNC supporters. Just when you think the Republican Party could regain a moral center and once again be the Party of morals......they go and support this clown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 4,567 Posted January 18, 2023 Santos lied his way into office and is an embarrassment to his side. Scandals like this should have been raised before the election by his primary and general election opponents, it wasn't until after. Congrats for getting away with it. Props to whoever broke the story. It'll be dealt with in the next election, people in hte district didn't know this about him when they voted. Santos has one-term-and-gone written all over him. Meanwhile, people in the vicinity of being just as bad as him are still in office. Here's one. Watching the exact same people hyperventilating about Santos being removed from office all get in line to slurp this guy's are blowhard hypocrites: https://www.tiktok.com/@facts_at_theready/video/7188354313289518382?_r=1&_t=8Z4zl9jPIyo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t think he’s personally a bad guy, a lousy piece of crap human being the way Trump clearly is. In fact I suspect, though I don’t know, that Biden is probably pretty decent. None of that matters, of course. The only two questions we need concern ourselves with are these: (1) Is Joe Biden a good President? (2) Is Joe Biden a corrupt President? The answer to the first question, for me, is yes. He has been effective, competent, and done many things I personally approve of. But then I am mainly liberal. I plan on voting for him again. The answer to the second question, for me, is that I haven’t seen it. But many Republicans claim that he is, and they especially think there is something there involving his son Hunter. I’m open to learning about whatever they present. If Biden turns out to be corrupt then I’ll stop supporting him no matter how good he’s been. For now I’m comfortable in my support, I will continue to blast George Santos and the politicians who protect him, I will continue to rip Trump and anyone who supports him, and I won’t feel the least bit hypocritical about any of this.
