Reply to comment by aguafiestas in Rep.-elect George Santos lied about attending prestigious NYC prep school Horace Mann: report by PichuLovy

If you called for this liar to resign where do you draw the line? Lying about taxes? Investments? How many children you have? Your affairs? Who is financially backing you?

Who would be left to run the country?

I don’t know exactly where the line is, but I am 100% sure this guy is on the wrong side of it.

Agreed. I was really not sure if I should include a /s in my post. I was trying to be absurd and hyperbolic, but it also read as depressingly true when I was done. Sigh

Uhh. There definitely is a line and these are part of why you draw it: Its vital to know who the politician is in a financial relationship with.

No, the line should be drawn well before that. You'd be fired from any other job for blatantly lying about qualifications. If we lived in a sane world Congress would expel him the second he is sworn in.

I considered adding a /s tag to my original comment but I'm more amused things are so upside down that it is being taken with sincerity and downvoted.
