5%?

Yes, if he were a Republican, he would still be running. No doubt about that.

It's a two step process.

First step: exposure. Possibly this is 0% moral. I don't know any of the people involved, but sure, maybe it's pure self-interest.
Second step: reaction to exposure. This is at least 50% moral.

Really, the same Blasey Ford who couldn't recall:

the specific house of the "assault"
the year
how she traveled to and from the house
who hosted the party.

Tell you what, just like the Hawaii/Alaska agreement, why don't we go halfsies on Congress. Let's pass a joint resolution to kick out both Swalwell and Gonzalez. Deal? I'm sure Democrats would be virtually unanimous in passing that resolution.

I bet: Gonzalez's affair with a consenting adult bears absolutely no relation to the rape allegations of Swalwell.
 
So now we need to find a way to push Yee, Thurmond, Mahan, Villaraigosa, and either Becerra or Steyer out of the primary to get this to a two on two jungle race with the GQPers

Gonzalez pressured a staffer to have an affair with him in 2020 and to send him nudes. And then did the same with another aide in 2024 that led to her committing suicide.

And you think that is OK?

But most importantly, no incentive to fabricate anything. This wasn't a divorce action where she stood to gain. She ended up having her life upended. She didn't do that to frame Kav. It's not as if the Dems were holding their breath thinking they would get someone better if Kav withdrew.

Anyway, you are so firmly entrenched in your pro-rape mental habits that you can't even see the issue here.

So, let me get this straight...

If the Dems ignored it (as we know any Pub would), they'd be evil. If they demanded Swalwell drop out, they're still evil. Did I catch that right?
Man, what a cute little world you've created for yourself. And all while worshipping a convicted felon who's all over the Epstein files and likens himself to Jesus Christ in grand displays of blasphemy? Like, who wouldn't want to be you?

They did ignore Swalwell's behavior for years until he was no longer useful to them and they needed to narrow the field in the Governor's race.

I'm not even mentioning Pelosi putting him on the Intelligence Committee after the Fang Fang episode.

If he was a Pub the Pubs wouldn't care. He would still be running and Ram would be okay with it.
 
Given the pervy comments the ramster tends to make on this board about women young enough to be his granddaughter- see, Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham, for starters- I’m guessing his weird infatuation with a miscreant predator like Eric Swalwell is rooted in envy as opposed to morality.

Need to look into that further. I wasn't aware of the facts the way you presented them to me.

"Pervy" comments on Sophie Cunningham?: My only comment about her on a Thread about her was: "She definitely possesses the whole package of looks, personality and athleticism" - by far the tamest comment on that thread. Granddaughter?: She's 30 and I'm 65 so that seems unlikely.

Don't remember what I've ever said about Caitlin Clark.

You have that poster’s political affiliations wrong. He often speaks with, shall we say, assertive confidence and a sense of certainty, but he’s not a trumper.
 
So a GQPer in Congress says Swalwell should be hanged. I hope most Dems in Congress will not support this, and I hope maybe one or two Dems might even sternly criticize such a suggestion...but I'm not holding my breath.
