  1. “George Santos” fits right in with the republican party, why would they ever want to get rid of him?

    1. They are getting rid of him and have made a big deal out of that. I don’t think honesty applies to anyone on both sides quite frankly. Just ask Biden. Politicians in general would like and cheat and sell their own. They are ALL despicable.

    2. @Michelle damn you should learn to live in the real world and not some make believes crap.

  2. The ONLY thing l want to hear about “George Santos” is he’s been kicked out PERMANENTLY!!! Tired of hearing about his many lies and fraudulent acts and nothings being done!!!!!!

    1. @Jason Milton your also ok with what republican call male bonding or what most call gay.

    2. @Veronica Rainone Actually, Democratic Representative Jim Traficant was expelled from the House in 2002. On July 24, the House voted to expel him in a 420-1 vote.

      Democratic Representative Michael Myers was expelled from the House of Representatives on October 2, 1980, by a vote of 376 to 30.

  3. He has no idea of the reality that many of us have in common. Lock him up. He won’t know the difference.

    1. JESUS CHRIST DIED ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SINS AND HE WAS BURIED AND HE ROSE AGAIN ON THE THIRD DAY THE BIBLE 1ST CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 15 VERSES 1 THROUGH 4 AND JOHN CHAPTER 3 VERSES 16 THROUGH 21 AND THEN PLEASE RE-READ 1ST CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 15 ALL OF THE VERSES THE BIBLE

      (ONLY BY FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST)
      LEADS TO SALVATION AND ETERNAL LIFE WITH GOD IN HEAVEN WHEN YOU DIE

      (REJECTING) JESUS CHRIST AS LORD AND SAVIOR WILL LEAD TO HELL FOR ALL ETERNITY

  4. Nobody gets those kinds of returns except for a short term, and if stocks go down–those investments drop like a rock.

  5. This is a case of an inferiority complex that over compensates by creating the profile he wants to have. A kind of political Tom Ripley.

  6. Turn investigation needs to be done under George Santos as well as that other name which was his mother’s maiden name.

  7. Why wasn’t Santos sanctioned for his role in the scheme? There must have been a point where he was implicated after admitting he knew it was a ponzie scheme.

    1. @becky doesit
      So you made up a story to convince yourself that you didn’t vote for a criminal ?!? You need Professional help …

    2. @becky doesitWell, if Becky says it in YouTube comments it *must* be true! We’ll just ignore the fact that he called himself Devolder back then and the fund was PROVEN to be a Ponzi scheme.
      Just because your right-wing base are simpletons who’ll believe anything you say doesn’t mean everyone is. Scum.

    1. @Mind Farmer ,we understand why you hate Obama (because you’re racist), but we don’t understand why you think it’s OK for Santos to copy Obama. Shouldn’t you be attacking both Obama and Santos?

    2. Illegal Migrants trash hotel …. *Midtown hotel* in Manhattan near Times square,. By CBS New York. They are using pots and pans that are a fired hazard and some are being taken away.

    3. Joseph R. Biden Jr. admitted to overstating his academic record in the 1980s: “I exaggerate when I’m angry,” he said at the time. Hillary Clinton conceded that she “misspoke” in 2008 about dodging sniper fire on an airport tarmac during a 1996 visit to Bosnia as first lady, an anecdote she employed to highlight her experience with international crises. And Senator Elizabeth Warren apologized in 2019 for her past claims of Native American ancestry.

    4. mr santos learned from democrats about how lying wins elections. your just butt hurt cause santos flipped a democratic seat to republican

  8. “I lived an honest life” says George Santos, the 100 times Olympic gold medalist winner for the dangerous bunny slopes slaloms course. 👍🏽

    1. Actually, Mr. Santos was my broker during this time, and no joke, my investment netted a six figure return. There was no Ponzi scheme. Now, a lot of investors did lose their money, but it was due to them pulling out early. Most of us, who stayed in, did quite well.

    2. @becky doesit 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Let me know how to spend so I can tell other suckas on how much to spend so you can make “money” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💸💸💸💸💸

    3. Mind Begs the Question:
      Hitler = Govts can be Sinister & Terrorists
      Govt – if given complete control over people
      Digital Money,Face Recognition,Spy Cameras & Spyware,National ID,Gun Control,AI Police..
      Secure system,Flawed system?

  9. OMG If his interview is in anyway his normal sales pitch he was going for the uninitiated and gullible. NO ONE with any kind of business sense would have bought his line about “12% when everyone else is giving 4” would see an INSTANT red flag!

  10. He’s a classic sociopath. He’s obviously proud of his lying, conniving and conning. He feels no remorse.
