I would say "a new low", but it is status quo - Last week, Democratic Senate candidate John Hickenlooper was found in violation of a state ban on accepting personal gifts while in office. This week he is blaming those violations on Republicans.
Hickenlooper, the former governor and a failed presidential candidate, accepted a flight on a campaign donor’s private jet and the use of a Maserati limousine while attending a conference in Italy while he was governor, The Daily Wire previously reported. Hickenlooper was found guilty of ethics violations by the Colorado Independent Ethics Commission, yet he now blames the violations on Republicans.
The Washington Free Beacon reported that Hickenlooper referred to his ethics conviction as Republican “smear attacks” during the Democratic Senate primary debate in Colorado on Tuesday.
