MISSOURI: Republican Party Blames George Soros Over Arrest Of Governor On Felony Revenge Porn Charge

Mediaite reports:

The Missouri GOP has finally released an official statement on the scandal that has enveloped Gov. Eric Greitens (R-MO,) which found the politician slapped with an invasion of privacy charge, stemming from his extramarital affair with a woman in 2015.

In a bizarre bit of narrative jiu jitsu, the party somehow has laid the blame at the feet of billionaire, and bogeyman to the alt-right, George Soros. While Greitens is still acting governor, he canceled a trip to Washington D.C. today for the annual meeting of the National Governors Association.
