I’m trying to think of four words less appealing to me in American politics than “Eric Swalwell’s erotic poetry” and drawing a blank.
“Vice President Hunter Biden?” Kind of implausible, also kind of funny. “SCOUTUS Justice Judge Judy?” I mightn’t mind that, but also kind of outlandish. And I suppose I could just think of the grossest things possible and then attach candidate names to them, but that’s cheating.
“Eric Swalwell’s erotic poetry,” however, is unfortunately a very real thing. See, the representative is running for governor of California — and while Gavin Newsom has managed to tawdry up the office a bit, he still doesn’t rank up there with Swalwell, a man who’s been plausibly accused of having a sexual relationship with a Chinese spy, in terms of outright scumminess.
