The lies about his education and work background are bad. Most repugnant is his claim that he is related to Holocaust survivors.
We often indulge in a scurrilous generalization that “all politicians are scoundrels.” But there is one party with an abundance of members who have earned that label.
Santos’ flagrant fabrication of his education and work experience is outrageous. But the invented story of his relatives escaping the Holocaust is beyond repugnant. And so is his glib excuse that “my sins here are embellishing my resume.”In most cases, lying about your education and work experience would have you fired immediately from your job. But I have no illusion that Republican politicians will do the right thing. After all, many of them will see Santos as a kindred spirit.
