Has anybody ever seen them in the same room together? If not, that seems very suspicious.

Trump is the best example of someone who used lies to get elected, and even when the lies were exposed didn't lose followers.
Ultimately, it matters more what a representative does when in office than what they did to get into office.
Of course, Bayesian reasoning suggests that if they used deception in the past, they will use it going forward.

Nightline covered Santos and filmed him sitting alone on his first day in the House and described him as "an outcast".
One conservative in his district said he should just get out of town and questioned who would work with him, believe him, or trust him. Another went for the 'If everybody who lied in politics took accountability, we wouldn't have anybody around". I wonder if this genius
has ever considered that the reason they continue to lie so blatantly and never take accountability is because of that very attitude she just expressed?
Last September, a local paper, The Northshore Leader, exposed many of Santos' lies, including his rocket rise from $55K a year to $11 million with no plausible explanation.
Santos' Dem opponent in the race, Robert Zimmerman, tried to bring attention to the paper's article but "couldn't get any traction" for the story.
In one campaign ad, Santos said, "I've seen how socialism destroys people's lives because my grandparents survived the Holocaust."
Does this idiot think the Nazis were socialists?

Probably. But even if he doesn't he'd know his constituency is stupid enough to think so.

Well, isn't it in the official Nazi name, the national socialist workers' party? North Korea is also a democratic republic too. Oh, and the Freedom Caucus fights for freedom and rights of all Americans too.

I actually really like him. His mom really was a housekeeper and how many members of congress can say that. Val Demings mainly ran on growing up poor and got no points for that. I donated to her early on but she laid the poor thing on pretty thick. She should have ran on the issues. There were a lot of issues considering who she was running against. About Santos, it is pretty sad that you have to make lies like that to get elected. And they were really good fun lies! I think if given half the chance he could be really fun to watch.

There are lots of people on the right, idiocy unexamined, who like to present Nazi Germany an example of what happens when socialists get their way. I hear it quite a lot on mixed forums.
Some stuff like this I don't know how sincerely it's believed, as much as it's a flag to wave to recognize each other. It's actually odd to pin down. I mean, they'll say they believe something and not be lying, but have a conspicuous lack of interest in examining how true it is. The best you can say is that they believe it but don't really care if they're wrong.

The more a country uses the terms "People's", "Socialist", or "Democratic", the less they actually are any of those. The same thing with "Freedom" and "Patriot (or form thereof) with groups.
He now admits to stealing a checkbook from his Mom's purse, a checkbook that was not hers, and writing fraudulent checks signing the other guy's name. Brazil is going after him.
So another lie (like anyone believed him)...."I am not a criminal in any jurisdiction in the world". Dude...!
I have long joked about running for office in my Dad's red district as a Republican, but only for the cool pension plan. Maybe that isn't too far-fetched these days. I'd have to lie a lot and say stupid stuff constantly but that might be fun.
The Santos guy is truly pathetic. I hope something is done about him besides not sitting next to him in chambers. I hope he is extradited or otherwise forced to go to Brazil and jailed LOL.
On a positive note (or maybe this is positive, long term) this is another very bad sign for Republicans, especially if they let this slide. What an embarrassing group of people. Republicans are so separated from reality it's almost comical. Tragically comical. Comically tragical.
He's 34. The theft occurred in 2008 when he was 20. He obviously has not changed.

Santos just can't seem to help himself. He truly is pathological about lying:
None of the new members has been sworn in.

He is referred to here as a fantasist lying criminal and fugitive.

The checkbook story is probably my threshold for getting kicked

Might be interesting to have a Republucan rep deported back to Brazil to face theft and fraud charges... The MAGAnuts are all for sending back South American criminals.
