Rep. George Santos adds to the chorus of insults by describing himself as 'simpleminded' in Newsmax interview
"Rep. George Santos' political opponents have called him a "sociopath," a "total fraud," and "a sick puppy" in recent weeks. But in an interview on Thursday, the freshman congressman added to the growing list of insults by describing himself in equally unflattering terms.
Santos, who is under fire for fabricating elements of his personal and work history, referred to himself as "simple-minded" in a wide-ranging interview with Newsmax's "Greg Kelly Reports."
His comment came in response to a question about campaign finances. The unknown source of sizable loans to Santos' 2022 congressional campaign have led to concerns over potential campaign-finance violations."
