“The View” co-host Ana Navarro claimed Friday that Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez’s legal troubles were his wife’s fault, saying the indictment “does not jive” with the man she knows.
The Justice Department unsealed an indictment charging Menendez on three bribery-related counts in September, then added a dozen additional charges in a March 5 superseding indictment. Navarro defended Menendez, citing multiple issues the two of them worked together on before claiming that lobbying regulations need to be changed.
“I’ve known Bob Menendez for almost 30 years and worked with him on countless issues: Cuba, Nicaragua, immigration, Central American free trade,” Navarro said. “This Menendez that I read about here just does not jive, does not square away with the man I’ve known for all of this time. It’s hard for me to understand all of these facts. I went to him with 100 issues with very rich clients, he never ever did anything like this.”
