Fabulist says he will file ethics complaints against ex-colleagues and accuses others of affairs and missing votes due to hangovers
George Santos, the disgraced New York Republican who was expelled from the US House on Friday, spent his first hours as a former congressman railing against his former colleagues and saying he would file ethics complaints against four of them on Monday.
Santos told reporters after his expulsion he was done with Congress.
“Why would I want to stay here? To hell with this place,” he told reporters outside the US Capitol after the vote.
Sounds like sour grapes to me. But I’m sure the real reason he’s so upset is because he got caught and has lost prime opportunities for grifting.
He’s not too happy about the legal issues he’s facing either.
True, but he can rationalize those as political. Taking away his status as a businessman and undermining his appearance as a powerful, successful industry tycoon? I agree with the analysis that suggests that’s the bigger blow to his ego.
