They want someone, or at least a few, who have major baggage issues. They must really love a new lightning rod from time to time while the rest of the pack continues attacks on democracy with blanketing from news cycles. Santos is their insulation blanket, their lightning rod. And they will juice him, and release pre-collected dirt at calculated intervals. And when it's not as effective at outrage anymore, they'll dump him, and then say they did because they have morals. All the while, Santos is just following orders, voting along their lines, and being a patsy the GOP actually finds extremely useful.

He's all the entertainment of Trump but without the far-reaching consequences. \nThis seems like the plot to a convoluted comedy where some schmuck has a few lies escalate out of control, pushing the protagonist into being in Congress and try to keep up the charade. We're at the part where the charade falls apart. Usually, the character would resign, and then some other subplot involving a love interest or family member would become the main plot, and we'd see our protagonist grow for a happy ending." ]
