It always turns out to be those guys that are the worst.
And these stories are just incredible.
Always.
First of all, I think it shows the incredible arrogance and contempt for all of us, for regular people, for voters, that Eric Swalwell ran for governor and thought he could get away with this.
Of course, allegations, we get it, but there's so many.
And it's not just...
This is all coming out now.
It's been an open secret.
I've used that term because I'd heard about this for months.
I'd heard about it from reporters, from those close to Democrats.
And you've got to believe that the Democrat establishment that was moving behind Swalwell, remember.
So what was happening until this all blew up was that the key Democrat figures and organizations in California politics were getting behind Swalwell as their guy.
The big unions, the teacher unions, SEIU.
You saw the Nancy Pelosi machine.
getting behind him with all her acolytes, Adam Schiff, the leading one, a bunch of members of Congress, all endorsing Swalwell.
So there was this sense in Sacramento, for example, in the last few weeks, everyone in Sacramento, they were saying, yeah, it's going to be Swalwell.
He's going to be the guy.
But they all knew, and they backed him anyway.
Now they have their statements of outrage and distancing and all the rest of it.
They knew.
