"Your honor, how can I be charged? It's not right. This is all wrong. Some people say 'Be gay do crimes,' - so I did. Prosecute them."

Santos is innocent! If NY Dems weren't so incompetent, Santos would just grift a lot of campaign money in the primary and general election and we would never hear about him. Then he won by accident!

It's silly and it only makes partial sense - I have no idea who Santos's dad is. But it was my very first thought and it makes me laugh.
