"Eric Swalwell's Political Future is Collapsing Fast".
The San Francisco Chronicle reported that a former congressional aide accused Swalwell of two non-consensual sexual encounters, including one where she claims she woke up in his hotel room after becoming intoxicated. CNN then dropped its own bombshell, reporting that four women total allege sexual misconduct by Swalwell — one of whom accuses him outright of rape. “I was pushing him off of me, saying no,” the woman said.
Couldn't happen to a more deserving scum-bag.
Update And the rats are doing swan dives off the weather deck of this sinking ship: "Democrats Schiff, Pelosi Turn on Swalwell, Withdraw Endorsements, Call on Him to Drop Out of California Governor’s Race Amid Sexual Assault Allegations".
I believe Swalwell pissed off a Democratic big cheese, because they dumped him tout suite. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have cared.
ReplyDeleteEven without these allegations, I'm just amazed that this trash person was a serious contender for governor - even of California.
DeleteShartwell is in between the two leading Republicans. If these allegations drive him out then it's possible that both candidates in the election will be Rs. I don't think it likely, I firmly believe that the state Dems would pull shenanigans to knock one of them out and slide in a Dem, who will then win.
ReplyDeleteBut dumping Erk might look like the quickest and cleanest option, and then see how to push whoever is currently fourth into the second spot, and then to win. Maybe the execrable Katie Porter will be the next Governor.
