Retiring Missouri Sen. Roy Blunt joined a slew of GOP lawmakers sounding the alarm over the recent allegations lodged against former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens, arguing the Senate candidate should drop out of the race if the accusations are accurate.

Greitens has come under fire after an affidavit filed by his ex-wife, Sheena, was made public on Monday, claiming that the Missouri politician physically abused both her and their children and threatened to use his connections to derail her career. Greitens has vehemently denied any wrongdoing.
