Cal Cunningham refuses to deny there could be more women in “brutal” press conference today

by The Right Scoop

US Senate candidate Cal Cunningham, who touts himself as wholesome and full of integrity, refused today to answer questions about his affair and also refused to deny that there could be more women that he’s had affairs with. Here’s a short montage put together by America Rising:

 
A Washington Post reporter called his press conference “disastrous”:

 
Here’s more from another reporter who was there, who called the presser ‘brutal’:

Of course he’d say that, because he doesn’t want to talk about his infidelity. He probably also doesn’t want to talk about how his marriage is doing since the announcement, but nobody asked about that.

It continues…

 
Thom Tillis released the following statement on Cunningham’s refusal to answer these questions:

Cal Cunningham’s refusal to answer questions makes him unfit for office. The Cal Cunningham of just a week ago was making his personal life the cornerstone of his campaign, but now that the real Cal Cunningham has been exposed, he no longer believes questions about his personal life are relevant. Cunningham was asked four times whether he engaged in extramarital affairs in addition to the one that the media has already confirmed, and he refused to deny it each time. North Carolinians deserve a full explanation from Cunningham on his misconduct, which he is clearly unwilling to provide. Cunningham is a complete hypocrite who today demonstrated that he has no character, no honor, and no business representing North Carolina in the United States Senate. Reporters should continue pushing Cunningham for answers — because, as the old Cal Cunningham used to say, the truth still matters in North Carolina.”
