George Santos is a buffoon. But he's illustrating the utter insanity of a political system built around secrecy of the flow of money. We laugh at him for being a cartoon, and because he's not smart enough to break the law the 'right' way, but as long as  the unfettered access to unlimited secret campaign cash with hobbled ethics and federal elections oversight is a red line platform plank for Republicans, the joke is on us.
