FROM NY POST: Wild, newly released dashcam footage shows the Democrats’ choice to run for governor in South Carolina getting arrested recently in just his underwear — while swearing, using the n-word and referring to himself as both God and Superman.
Married father of four William “Mullins” McLeod, 53, is facing calls from his own party to step down from the gubernatorial race that he only formally entered Monday after video emerged a day later of his bizarre arrest just months earlier in May, according to WCBD.
The prominent attorney was stopped in downtown Charleston while “yelling at the top of his lungs” and wearing only underwear and shoes, according to a police report — which suggested he showed signs “typical of an individual under the influence of a stimulant narcotic.”
The Dem referred to his upcoming election race — even threatening to kick an opponent’s “f–king teeth in” — while refusing to tell cops his name, instead referring to himself as God and Superman, the hour-long video released through a Freedom of Information Act request shows.
McLeod talked to himself in the back of the cruiser, including concluding that he is related to the president of the United States.
“It doesn’t matter, my friend, trust me,” he told an officer who asked for his name. “I’m one of the most just humans to ever walk this soil.”
“Superman sounds good,” he added, then told officers they could use the generic John Doe.
He bizarrely continued to have a rambling conversation with absolutely no one, using foul language and moving between seemingly unrelated subjects.
“When I’m governor, Snoopy is coming with me, and not some German shepherd… Snoopy is more of a friend to me than you were to the people of South Carolina. When you paraded that f*g German shepherd in front of me…” he said, before declaring that kicking someone’s teeth in is “the work.”
He talked about corruption in DC, taking people out, and healthcare in part of his angry, often unintelligible tirade.
According to ABC4, “The newly announced Democrat candidate’s campaign claimed that he plans to hold a press conference in the future to address the ‘legal action and expected resolution stemming from his unlawful arrest.’ He also claims that portions of the video were released to ‘damage’ his candidacy and reputation.”
