Latest target of Trump’s retribution campaign says ‘only thing I am surprised about is that it took him this long’
The Democratic congressman Eric Swalwell is the latest target of Trump’s retribution campaign against his critics, the congressman confirmed on Thursday.
NBC News reports that Swalwell is facing a federal criminal investigation for alleged mortgage fraud, just as three other Democratic officials have faced in recent months. The outlet says the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency sent a letter to the attorney general claiming Swalwell may have committed mortgage and tax fraud.
Swalwell said in a statement: “As the most vocal critic of Donald Trump over the last decade and as the only person who still has a surviving lawsuit against him, the only thing I am surprised about is that it took him this long to come after me.”
The way he responded to this was really good. He got up there and said “I’m only surprised it took this long for Trump to come after me, bring it on”
Good, everyone that voted to thank ice is bootlicking trash
Everyone who was against Trump has committed mortgage fraud and is getting busted for it at the same time?
Literally unbelievable.
Most of TFG’s legal troubles are related to financial fraud, especially real-estate related. It’s more projection.
It’s a badge of honor, really. It shows that you really got to him.
