Being deceived and lied to wouldn’t stop that donor from maxing out for Trump and the RNC, would it?

In the eyes of republicans george’s only real crime was screwing rich republicans. That they cannot overlook or forgive (otherwise he’d still be in the house at least until his actual conviction).

Some republicans, well a lot of them, just can’t avoid getting conned. Good grief, Santos pales in comparison to Donny boy.

“It’s very aggravating to be deceived and lied to,” one of the donors said.
And yet they happily support candidates and a party that does just this every single day.
They probably didn’t care until Santos was expelled from Congress and was unable to do any more favors for them.

Good riddance to all rubbish – all of you! With all sincerity.
I just want to make sure this response was sent to all those Santos and his family, financiers, employers, and supporters.

They’re walking a tightrope: they know they need to hire and field liars and conmen to do the “grievance shaman” thing and fill Congress with deadweight. So, they can’t heed any normal human intuition to stay away from sketchy crooks.
Stands to reason they’ll occasionally hook a con artist who doesn’t have the good sense to not bite the hands that feeds them.
