Georgia MAGA man decides to defend George Santos
He claimed others were as bad as Santos. Before he gave an example, I agreed that yes, Trump, was a serial liar, but Santos is pathologically worse. It only went downhill for the caller from there.

This one is a real beauty from my SiriusXM program.
In a discussion about Congressman George Santos, his fabrications and why should resign, George from Georgia called in.
“How can we justify going after Santos when we have people who’ve done essentially the same thing?” George asked.
Before he gave an example, I replied, “Oh you mean Donald Trump. Well we did of course impeach him...for inciting an insurrection against the United States and for engaging in extortion of a foreign leader. But you’re right, he did lie about his his entire resume and his businesses.”
George immediately began saying, “No, no!” trying to interrupt me.
He then went to Senator Blumenthal of Connecticut, who did lie about serving in the military in Viet Nam.
I asked, What else did he lie about? George couldn’t come up with anything, as I explained that every Republican senator and House member has lied about something, and even many Democrats have — and none of it is right or defensible. But if they cop to and apologize, one distortion or falsehood about a background can be tolerated.
But nobody comes close to George Santos having fabricated his entire resume.
I then shifted the discussion — in making an example of how two people could do something similar but for one it’s much, much worse because of the severity and intent — to classified documents, and Trump stealing hundreds of files and refusing to return them while Biden appears to have had files in an office and his residence he didn’t know about and returned them promptly.
Well, that lit a fuse for George, and then I only had to escalate further.
Warning: Lots of F-bombs, (on my part!).
Listen in and let me know your thoughts!

These Neanderthals of the trumpanzee cult cannot help themselves from hours of faux news inuring them to lying. Whataboutism is the knee jerk response as well as the inability to discern fact from fiction. Santos is actually doing us a favor by being defended from top down in the gop insurrectionist faction. May take awhile but voters next year will be thoroughly turned off by the gop sideshow to dispatch these cretins to the wilderness.
The three lies that to me are beyond the pale, confirm the pathological nature of George Santos, and should make it easy to get the 2/3 vote in the House to expel him...are the three lies that use horrific human tragedy for political gain: "Jewish grandparents who escaped the Holocaus"t; "four employees murdered at the Pulse gay nightclub massacre"; "mother who eventually succumbed to the harmful health consequences of being at her office in the World Trade Center on 9/11".
