I was about to say I'm sure it would be a super easy Google search because everything is available on the internet and then a person right below me had already dropped you a link to it so

I get where you're coming from but my standards are extremely high for the representatives that I have. I don't expect politicians to be perfect cuz they're human and I know for a fact as much as I want to virtue signal about how great I could possibly be... My integrity isn't high enough to turn down the possibility of making more than 150K a year and then barely doing your job.
I come from a not very great living situation and a lot of my experiences of push me to the point where I don't feel like a good person So I can understand. That's why I wouldn't want somebody like me in office but also I'm extremely transparent so it's not like I would hide shit like that I would be extremely forthright with it immediately cuz I feel like it's a selling point but to hide it seems disgusting.
And not only that but to know that they could have chosen so many other non-problematic Republicans and that was the best that they could find? Like wow.
Being a criminal does not preclude him or prevent him from running for office. It's just not surprising but sad how many Republicans decided they would rather him than any Democrat regardless of whether or not the Democrat had their best interest at heart or whether or not the Democrat had zero convictions or zero things on their record.
My only point being I can understand exactly where you're coming from but like that shouldn't be a defense. Personally I would love if there was a means where they had to effectively stand trial not in the criminal court but in the court of public opinion and have all of their shit, all of their past, shared with the world. And then let the people decide. Because even a scummy as I might be the last thing I would do is lie about it knowing my decisions affect millions.

I don't know if I can blame New York Democrats for the everyday person voting for a garbage candidate. Millions of people voted for Donald Trump knowing he was a criminal but choosing to believe it was all just the hoax and made up.
I'm 100% sure that the vast majority of New York Republicans would easily vote for George Santos if it meant that it kept the Democrat out of office. That's like blaming Hillary Clinton for people voting for Donald Trump like that's absolutely stupid.

Not sure why I got downvoted for asking who lol
The funny thing is republican leadership that got him elected KNEW about half of this beforehand and still decided he was good enough. I'm pretty sure he'll never resign and keep getting that sweet government money.
Very infuriating when you're the average Joe wondering when your next check is gonna be enough to cover bills and food.

I mean trump is polling ahead of every other Republican for president lmaooo. So it's a obvious lie. Republicans are still obsessed with him and he lives rent free in their heads.

I mean if I have to choose between a fighting a crackhead on Lexington or fighting a very aggressive chicken I'll probably choose the crackhead because at least I know what to expect.
You can't really throw crack at a chicken and expect them to stop attacking you but I know if I throw some crack or $3 at a crackhead we're good
