George Santos’ last stand just took a turn for the bizarre

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Anyone but Scalise! This is the unhinged wail from professional liar and Mr. Ripley wanna-be, George Santos. How’s life, George? It’s not too good for the worst member of Congress. Santos got his fee-fees hurt because Scalise did not try to get his vote for Speaker.

So, being the utter fool and hysterically stupid person he is, Santos clamored, on Twitter, that Scalise no longer has his vote — even though Scalise never asked for it anyway.

Santos reminds me of a weasel, a great ugly, conniving little weasel whom nobody wants around, even the mad-as–hatters Republicans.

Look — any day now, Santos will be forced out of Congress. I am not at all worried about THAT. But it IS rather amusing to watch Santos try SO HARD to come off as menacing and scary because nobody in their right mind would be scared of Santos.

Santos also reminds me of that kid in school. You know the type. Scuttling after the popular kids, doing their bidding, wanting only to be liked and showered in glory. Santos is like a smudge on the floor waiting to be wiped down.

It is hysterical how he tried to “own” Steve Scalise on Twitter, bringing a brief moment of pure amusement to some very sober times.

“I’ve come to the conclusion that my VOTE doesn’t matter to him,” Santos wailed, inexplicably capitalizing “Vote.”

“I’m now declaring I’m anyone but Scalise, and come hell or high water, I won’t change my mind.”

Amazing the dramatic lengths people go to for a little attention, right? Santos does NOT want to be forced out of his job because — to quote the opening number in “A chorus line” — “I really need this job, Please God, I need this job.” (Otherwise I’ll be broke — my quote and likely the REAL reason Santos is doubling down.)

Only George Santos, to continue the Song quotes, “really blew it.” “How could I do a thing like that?” Because perhaps George you’re just not very bright? People like Trump and Santos live in worlds of their own. How Santos could think anyone would ever take him seriously is amazing. It does show the toxicity of narcissism at its most potent.
