In a Faux News interview...

What a jackass!

[Wwcd]

1. My What a Big Man..!! 🤪

Assh$$le

[Ilsa]

2. Saying "Fuck the Navy" should be enough to do him in in SD.

That should go on a billboard, along with his misuse of campaign funds.

[Jersey Devil]

17. His oppenent needs to put up "Fuck the Navy" billboards all over the district (nt)

nt

[yonder]

28. That should do it, I'd think.

Another thing is this little bit of chest thumping: “When I went to Iraq in 2003, the first time,..." Just making sure everybody knows he was there more than once. If he, in fact, was.

What a chump.

3. Scumbag throws his own wife under the bus.

But I guess that won't matter since they won't be together in prison anyhow.



Asshole.

[Claritie Pixie]

4. One of Trump's protege's making him proud!

[BigmanPigman]

5. She probably doesn't care as long as they both get away with

their crimes. Both are equally guilty. His cult/base are trumpets and will probably forgive him.

7. Kind of like Gov. McDonnell did to his wife...

12. I think they're going to turn on one another.

She probably blames him for not replacing the treasurer with a crony that would cook the books better, and he probably blames her and the rest of the family for using the finance account like a personal piggy bank.

I think he sincerely believes he did nothing wrong and I think she believes that simply "existing" as a wife of a politician merits using the money. As actual moral values here.

[BigmanPigman]

15. They are a perfect match....

made in Hell.

[chillfactor]

6. What an asshat!

Like tRUMP...…...blame some else for his misdeeds and behavior.

[joshcryer]

8. Yeah, you can see where he's going with it.

Yesterday he wasn't absolving his wife when asked about her involvement, today the wife didn't even give him eye contact at the court house, and the wife has texts/emails covering up the spending.

He's likely going to play the "spendy wife" stereotype in his defense going forward.

[Blue_true]

19. The Person 14 in the indictment was not the wife.

He was with the person regularly, spending campaign money. My guess, he tries to lay it all on wifey and she turn on him to save her ass.

[joshcryer]

22. They're both dead to rights.

The more that I think about it, since they named so many "individuals" Duncan may have an impossible case to defend, since they can ask the individuals on the stand whether or not the various outings he had with them were campaign related. Obviously they would not have charged him if the witnesses said they were campaign related.

The wife could make excuses like "I didn't mean to use the campaign card for the airline flights, it was saved on the computer," etc. But her written explanation for the expenditures are extremely damning. She could claim though that she "doesn't remember" and "handles flights all the time," etc.

I still think they both plead guilty for 2 years or something. Maybe even flip for Muller if they have something on Trump (unlikely I know, just throwing it out there), since that seems to be everyones escape route. Feel bad for the kids if anything, their parents are criminal scum and terrible examples.

[Blue_true]

23. They are perfect examples of most modern republicans. nt

[chowder66]

9. It's difficult vacationing in Italy, and hard to play golf. You can't know how bad they have it! nt

[rusty fender]

10. She'll probably throw him back under

the next bus because the filing of these charges led to the discovery of Duncan’s mistress, Person 14.

[joshcryer]

13. Yeah, "individual 14," personal ski trips, hotel stays.

Years long affair. He probably used the finance account so she wouldn't know about it. And she used the account freely without regard to it. The whole family seemed to use the account for random crap.

[Me.]

11. WowEE ZowEE

[mr_lebowski]

26. Pavement fan?

Me too ...

[Saboburns]

14. That fucker ought to be horse whipped

Republican slime shame this country.

[Blue_true]

20. Most republicans have no shame. nt

[central scrutinizer]

16. Throw each of them a shovel

And stand back.

[Blue_true]

21. Looks that way doesn't it?

The mistress could be a problem for the wife, especially when the mistress was spending money while the household checking account was bouncing like a ball.

[Blue_true]

18. Wife under the bus, mistress is good enough for now.

What an absolute prick.

[joshcryer]

24. They had to sell their house and move back in with Duncan's dad.

Had to sell the house to pay back the debts.

It's unbelievable to me that someone that makes almost $200k a year is broke.

[ck4829]

25. Wow...

[Bernardo de La Paz]

27. Proudly brought to you by "The Party of Personal Responsibility" aka Trump-RubleCon Party. . . nt

[LenaBaby61]

29. POS Hunter also blamed the Deep State ...

and "Democrats" as well. Yeah, I guess it was Dems who told he and his wife to steal, lie and cheat tax-payers out of their hard earned money So now he also throws his wife under the bus. Figures. Oh well, she helped throw herself up under that bus too.

How he got away with it for so long is beyond me, because if you live in California like I do and follow politics, you'd have heard the rumors for years about how Duncan Hunter's son is following in his corrupt Daddy's footsteps. BOTH he and his wife are NASTY and VILE pieces of work. He threatened people on his staff who questioned him about all of his spending, and the wife allegedly looked down on folks like she was better than they were.

Like I said, both nasty, vile thuglican pieces of work who this deserves to be happening TO
