Description

Last week, the much-talked-about George Santos, of Long Island, New York, was sworn into office. The Democrats and even some Republicans think he should have resigned after he admitted to lying about a lot of things during his campaign. So who is the real George Santos?

Jonathan Freedland and Will Bredderman of the Daily Beast discuss the man behind the lies
