Republicans are launching a super PAC called Show Me Values to stop disgraced former Gov. Eric Greitens from winning the Missouri Senate primary. Greitens stepped down as governor in 2018 amid allegations that he sexually assaulted his hairdresser.
Republicans are launching a well-funded outside group to stop disgraced former Gov. Eric Greitens from winning their upcoming Missouri Senate primary.
Top Republicans have spent much of the last year expressing deep concerns about Greitens, who stepped down as Missouri governor in 2018 amid allegations that he sexually assaulted his hairdresser. Top party officials, in Missouri and nationally, worry that should he win the Republican nomination, he would jeopardize the party’s ability to retain the seat in the general election.
One of the group’s TV ads says Greitens was involved in “scandal after scandal,” and highlights allegations from Greitens’ ex-wife that he abused her and her children, which the former governor has denied. Another commercial paints Greitens as soft on China, saying that “while President Trump was getting tough on China, Eric Greitens was praising them.”
