George Santos is heading to reality TV. Other politicians have done the same.
The Washington Post reports:
Former congressman George Santos (R-New York), who pleaded guilty to identity theft and wire fraud and was later pardoned by President Donald Trump, will star in a military-style competition show in September. He is not the first former politician to try their hand on reality TV.
Former House majority leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas) resigned from his seat in Congress in 2006 amid money laundering accusations. He was eventually convicted in 2010. But while awaiting trial, he competed on “Dancing With the Stars” in 2009. (His conviction was overturned by the Texas Third Court of Appeals in 2013.)
Former Democratic governor Rod Blagojevich of Illinois was found guilty of corruption in 2011, after he was caught on FBI wiretaps seeking money in return for appointing someone to President Barack Obama’s vacated Senate seat.
Also while waiting for his trial, Blagojevich appeared on “The Celebrity Apprentice” in 2010. He was fired by host Trump after four weeks on the show. Trump, as president, pardoned Blagojevich in 2020.
My comments:
The BIGGEST FRAUDSTER (Demented Donnie) pardoned the Second BIGGEST FRAUDSTER (Santos)—and serious crimes like identity theft, felony larceny, as well as serial pathological lying—and Mike Johnson happily covering for him in the House! Now, granted, Demented Donnie’s crimes make Santos’s pale by comparison…
Corruption at all levels!
Who would find this pathetic fool entertaining???
