    I think he should resign when Santos resigns. I wonder how many gold bars Trump has hidden. Oh I forgot he’s hiding all of his in plane sight melted down all over the fixtures in his homes. Good trick!! Hide it in plain sight and no one will think anything of it right? You know Dems always have to push to do the right thing. Every time there is the tiniest indiscretion or in Mendez case an alleged Misconduct, the Dems just can’t help themselves and have to urge their staff to resign immediately before even being found guilty. They don’t even give time for a public apology or some form of congressional punishment or censorship. Yet when republicans are found to have done anything wrong ( whether financial, moral, ethical on or off the job) they NEVER hold their staff accountable. Dems have lost some great politicians over some of the most PG rated scandals and yes others over big scandals. Why in the heck don’t republicans politicians (the so called moral majority, do nothing wrong, so perfect that I’m positive they even think that Jesus didn’t have to die for their sins) ever ask their staff to resign when they clearly have broken the laws and rules? The mainstream republicans didn’t ask alleged lying thieving George Santos to resign, don’t want to ask the supreme courts justices to develop an ethics policy, DO want Trump as president again despite all of his severe indiscretions. The list of Crooked, thieving, immoral, lying, cheating, racist, republican list goes on and on and on. So yes Mendez should probably resign but only after Santos’s resigns and when mainstream republicans call for Trump to hang up his hat. Because the millions of dollars that Trump has been alleged to have stolen or stolen by default ( through not paying taxes, not paying contractors to build his buildings, and by falsifying his real estate records to save and make money of which he was just found guilty) puts Mendez alleged financial crime to shame. So dems please stop!!😊

    He seems totally genuine, he really comes across as if he believes what he is saying. Thats why politicians are scary people. Totally ruthless with zero capacity to feel empathy

    I listen to people when they talk. He invoked his mother and then went on to say this was going to be his biggest fight. Why would you bring your mother into it and why would you talk about it being your biggest fight if you knew you were innocent and had plenty of information to prove such. Guilty as charged! But of course no matter what happens he's going to be left with millions of dollars to retire on

    If he had continuously withdrawn cash from his bank for 30 years as he claims, his entire stash of bills should have dates that gradually increase from 30 years ago to today.
