Former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who now identifies as an independent, berated Congressman-elect George Santos (R-NY) over what he describes as “embellishments” in his resume.
Seems like they don’t have to train these R liars. Doesn’t require any learned or polished skills, they’re just born with the know-how to fleece rubes and the gall to blame Ds for everything. It has been going on for decades, I would think even Rs are sick of hearing their own tribe telling gigantic lies and then weakly trying to blame Dems or Hippies or Soros or Antifa/BLM, etc.
“Tulsi, I can say the same thing about the Democrats,” Santos responded. “Look at Joe Biden. Joe Biden has been lying to the American people for 40 years. He’s the president of the United States. Democrats resoundingly support him. Do they have no shame?”
Rep. Gabbard is so cute. “shame”?? That’s no longer a Republican characteristic.
A more fruitful investigation would center on the Santos birth certificate or grant of citizenship. If Santos couldn’t show that he was an American citizen, it would be game over, right there.
What they aren’t going to do is ask him to resign or kick him out.
I don’t know what the lesson here is for us on the left. Another reminder that we are playing a game with no rules - just laws - and even those laws are always subject to judicial review.
And yet, has Representative George ever listed any of these “lies”? Surely, he could at least lie out a bogus list, and reporters would investigate… what am I saying? Reporters would print it verbatim, without question. End of story.
