Former Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.), who was recently expelled from Congress, made a pitch on Tuesday to serve as former President Trump’s director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) if Trump wins his bid to return to the White House in 2024.

“My new year resolution is that President Trump returns to the white house and in 2025 I can be appointed Director of ICE,” Santos wrote in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“Enough abuse and disregard for our sovereignty, we are the United States OF America and not a global dumping hub. ICE has had their hands tied for far too long with the sole exception of the great four years of DJT,” Santos wrote, referring to Trump by his initials.

    Trump wouldn’t want someone who is more of a grifter than himself. Santos is the Platonic Ideal of Grift: so incredibly tactless and immoral that it’s hard to believe he’s lying as much as he is.

      What if Santos cuts him in in the grift, though?

        Santos’s grift isn’t profit, it’s annoyance. Trump likes to be annoying for attention, but doesn’t do anything if it’s not making money.

        What if Santos takes off his mask and he’s really Fred Trump, Donald’s father?
