URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!
(DC Pundit) – President Donald Trump is rarely one to mince words, and when the Daily Mail asked him about the mounting sexual misconduct allegations against disgraced former California Congressman Eric Swalwell, he delivered his assessment with characteristic bluntness.
“He’s a sleazebag. Always has been,” Trump told the outlet. “He’s a long-timer, and he’s a bad guy. I don’t know anything about the charges, but he’s a bad guy.”
When asked specifically about the five women who have come forward accusing the former congressman of sexual assault, rape, and other deeply troubling behavior spanning years, Trump didn’t exactly rush to Swalwell’s defense. “We’ll see what happens,” the president said. “He’s always been a bad guy, he’s a corrupt politician, and everyone knows it, so it’s happening to him, and we’ll see what happens. Right? Let him go defend himself.”
Trump’s remarks came on the heels of yet another woman stepping forward with horrific claims. Lonna Drewes, 50, alleged that Swalwell — a married man — drugged, choked, and raped her in a West Hollywood hotel room in 2018. Drewes said she believed they were friends and that he was helping her fashion software company get off the ground. Instead, she claims he spiked her drink before sexually assaulting her, and said the experience left her “crying all the time” and destroyed her life.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has since opened an investigation into Drewes’ claims after she provided what she describes as damning texts, photographs, and journal entries. A second criminal probe was launched by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office into separate sexual assault allegations brought by a former staffer.
The avalanche of accusations has effectively ended Swalwell’s political career. He withdrew from the California governor’s race and resigned from Congress entirely, all while vehemently denying every allegation. He has since vanished from public view.
For a man who spent years positioning himself as a crusader for justice on Capitol Hill, the fall has been swift, steep, and, many conservatives would argue, long overdue.
