With more and more lies from Santos seemingly being uncovered each day, Santos appears to have lost the faith of many northeast Queens residents.told QNS that the organization has lost faith in Santos. The resident claims the Patriots want Santos to resign from office due to his dishonesty to the public.
“If you lied on your resume and got the job and then the company found out, the company would fire you,” one Bayside resident told QNS. “It’s so hypocritical to for him to keep the job. Do a new vote in his district.” While some acknowledged there isn’t much that can presently be done to oust Santos, they expressed optimism that the ongoing investigations turn something up that would force Santos to either resign or get expelled. However, it could take a long time before these investigations are completed.
“Yes, George Santos lied and should be sanctioned,” they said. “But, here is the double standard: [Richard] Blumenthal, a Democrat from Connecticut, lied about serving in Vietnam and nothing happened to him. [Joe] Biden, another democrat, has lied tens of thousands of times his whole 40+ year career and nothing has happened to him.”
Yet another Bayside resident discounted the severity of the situation because, in their opinion, “presidents, vice presidents and Congress members lie all the time.”
