Santos addressed everything from his education, dressing in drag, and his mother's connection to 9/11.
Santos defended his claims of attending Horace Mann School, even though the school has no record of him. He also defended his claims to having Jewish heritage and his grandparents survived the Holocaust.
"This is the one that I'll battle to my grave, to the point I've already ordered those DNA test kits. I've done four so far and I'm just waiting on those returns," he told Morgan. "I never claimed to be Jewish. I've always made a party favor joke," he said, referencing past mentions of being"Jew-ish."
The two men went back and forth at one point about pinning blame on journalists for the"witch hunt" Santos feels he's been subject to over the past two months. Morgan, meanwhile, wanted admissions from Santos about the lawmaker's role in the media firestorm."Sure. I've been a terrible liar on those subjects," Santos replied.Santos is under investigation by local, state and federal lawmakers in connection with alleged campaign finance violations.
