"Watch the swamp struggle": Santos thinks backlash to Trump Cabinet picks is "f**king hilarious"

Source: Salon

Former New York Rep. George Santos thinks criticism of President-elect Donald Trump’s controversial Cabinet picks is “f**king hilarious” and blames “Democrat trolls” for the healthy dose of backlash.

In an interview with The Daily Beast, the congressman turned Cameo star laughed at previous administrations before offering deadly serious support to nominees like Matt Gaetz and Kristi Noem.

He called Gaetz, who resigned from the House under the fog of a potentially damning report from the House Ethics Committee, a "phenomenal" choice for attorney general. Santos said Trump plans to "have a Cabinet with competent people."

“I could argue that Anthony Blinken was a joke of a secretary of state, and 'border czar' Kamala Harris was a f**king joke,” Santos said. “But you guys want to make fun of President Trump’s Cabinet picks?”

Not that there is any chance it will bring in clearer thinking on your behalf.

The hope in doing so is - there is a chance you might drown. Putting us out of our misery - having to listen to your rank and incessant stupidity.

The fact that the Daily Beast actually took the time to find him and interview him is a stain on their integrity...

He's not going to pardon you. He doesn't give a fuck about you.

You'll still face serious jail time when your sentence comes down on January 25th.
