Rep. Duncan Hunter (R-CA), who previously suggested his wife was to blame for his alleged misuse of campaign funds, said in an interview on Tuesday that his wife should not be a target.
Hunter, an early congressional backer of President Trumps, was indicted last week on charges of using campaign funds to pay for personal expenses.
Leave my wife out of it, leave my family out of it, Hunter told San Diego news channel KGTV in a brief interview on Tuesday. Its me theyre after anyway. Theyre not after my wife; they want to take me down, thats what theyre up to. So lets get this in the arena and have this settled.
But Hunter, who deemed the prosecution of him and his wife a witch hunt, said something markedly different in a Fox News interview just five days ago.
