The same eagle-eyed journalists who were gobsmacked — gobsmacked, I say! — to discover that Joe Biden’s brain was AWOL are now feigning disbelief over the Eric Swalwell sexual assault allegations. Who knew this young, promising, handsome politician, who was elected to Congress in his early 30s and was poised to become California’s next governor, had such a dark side?
Well, apparently everyone:
If true, it sets a peculiar timeline: Swalwell joined Congress in 2013. For over a dozen years, he was a powerful member of the political elite. A popular presence on cable TV shows, Swalwell always made time for the mainstream media. (Even after eating bean burritos. Yes, that actually happened.)
Normally, politicians who play ball with the media get better coverage than those who don’t. It’s one of the unspoken agreements between press and politicians: You scratch our back and we’ll scratch yours.
Most of the time, it’s a win-win arrangement: Each side gets something they want.
Swalwell’s lust for power wasn’t a secret. We’re talking about a guy who ran for president when he was just 38, so everyone knew he was using his congressional seat as a launching pad for something bigger.
Of course he ran for governor of California! Duh! It was there for the taking!
Whoever it is, they need to uncover the truths about our own turd…Wes Mooron…
