Okay, now that that\u2019s out of the way, his peers in the GOP can do themselves and the country a favor and knock it off with the moral preening.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, elected officials and GOP leaders from Nassau County, New York, Santos&#8217;s area, hosted a press conference. Each participant took turns calling Santos a conman and should resign immediately. \u201cHe lied to my face,\u201d declared one of the party\u2019s drama queens. The party chairman lamented this. \u201cdeceit, lies, and fabrication\u201d that colored Santos\u2019 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Yeah, <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/12\/27\/5-real-things-more-appalling-than-george-santos-fake-resume\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">He lied<\/a> About his education, his work history and his philanthropy. And, perhaps most importantly, about his ancestry. And not a single one of those things determines whether he\u2019s going to vote for bills that benefit his constituents or hurt them. Not a single one of those things determines whether he\u2019s going to support policies that help America or further ruin it.<\/p>\n<p>All things being equal, I would prefer to elect a man who doesn\u2019t lie about where he went to school, nor that he founded a charity for cute dogs. But if that man was open about his intent to vote in favor of taking more of my income, sending billions more to Ukraine, and, \u2014 for the love of all things holy \u2014 anything having to do with \u201cequity,\u201d well \u2026 <em>Mr. Santos, who can I make this check out to and can I get you anything while I\u2019m at the store?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s the choice. There haven\u2019t been any major votes on legislation in the new GOP-controlled house, yet, so we don\u2019t know if Santos will be a reliable supporter of the things that matter. But if it\u2019s between finding out with him, or risking that his seat be filled with a Democrat \u2014\u00a0in a special election, it likely would be \u2014 who is sure to oppose them, the only thing for the rest of the Republican Party to do is shut up and make sure he pulls the right lever.<\/p>\n<p>This is what Democrats have realized. They know that power is temporary and the point of having it isn\u2019t to keep it, but to use it while it\u2019s there. Are you convinced that House Democrats are actually successful? <em>Like<\/em> Looking at <a href=\"https:\/\/pyxis.nymag.com\/v1\/imgs\/977\/b9d\/9980c4769c6e8cad2f33dbd07a0e35e3d7-18-rosa-delauro.2x.rhorizontal.w700.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rosa DeLauro<\/a> Do they do this every day? Of course they don\u2019t. The Connecticut representative is, however, a reliable vote for the team. That\u2019s what matters.<\/p>\n<p>Santos is no different. He\u2019s a creepy, lying pudge ball but he\u2019s <em>Our<\/em> Pudge ball that lies and creeps. Minimum for two years.
