"The View" co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin said on Monday that Rep. Eric Swalwell’s reputation with women was an "open secret" that made him exploitable by America's enemies.
Swalwell, D-Calif., has suspended his campaign for California governor after he was accused of sexual assault, as well as multiple reports alleging other misconduct with women. Swalwell has acknowledged "mistakes in judgment" but claimed the assault allegations against him are false.
Griffin, returning to "The View" after a stint on maternity leave, noted reports that Swalwell's alleged misconduct was not a surprise to many observers.
"Swalwell sat on the intel committee, and there were allegations he had a suspected Chinese spy, Fang Fang, who was associated with him in his office," she said. "Now, he was not found to have engaged in wrongdoing, but to me, my spidey senses from having worked at the Pentagon go off, which is it was an open secret that he had issues with women, that he was somebody who was susceptible, potentially to heavy drinking, to impropriety with women."
