Pete started to unravel in 2017. He was still married to Wife 2 (who he cheated on Wife 1 with) when a woman who would become Wife 3 became pregnant and had his child. That was the same year he was hired by Fox, where Wife 3 was a producer. The same year he had sex with a woman at a Republican conference, a watering hole for good, honest "Christians" like Hegseth.
Three years later he paid the woman $50,000 so she would sign an NDA because she'd gone to the police alleging he raped her after he roofied her at the hotel bar. Poor pete was afraid he might lose his job at Fox if Wife 3 found out so, exactly like Trump, he paid the woman off.
Welcome to the new Trumpian GOP, the party of sexual predators.
