I have come to learn that everything is okay as long as it is a white male doing it. God forbid a black man or a woman do anythiiiiing. It is mind boggling how much the GOP is willing to ignore where Trump is involved, despite how every little thing about HRC was a massive issue.

Not to mention the golf cart rental. GOLF CART RENTAL.

There was also something about Trump Tower management denying the Secret Service the ability to have a refrigerator in the rented space for sodas and lunches. I guess the agents are supposed to eat their meals at a Trump owned restaurant.

I see Trump still keeping it classy /s

Not to mention the golf cart rental. GOLF CART RENTAL.

Yeah, they really buried the lede there. How on earth is it okay for him to charge his staff to stay in his own fucking hotel?

Because Trump is a greedy little shitweasel who cares only about enriching himself. And I guess because he can.

Remember the people who claimed they were going to vote for him because he was rich and he wouldn’t be corrupted?

Right? Of all the details here, it’s that and the $60,000 for golf carts that get me. Why is mar a lago charging for golf carts?????

It’s not that he cheated, she’s saying he used his power In the entertainment industry over young women to get them to sleep with him While publicly claiming to be a champion for Feminist values.

I don’t think the issue is so much the cheating, but the apparent emotional abuse and manipulation. Like, if she disclosed instead that he physically abused her, I seriously doubt anyone would be having an issue with her saying, yeah he might not be such a great feminist after all. Sure, all people are imperfect, but

“Neither party is the good guy”???
What condemns her in your eyes—being cheated on, or calling out the systemic sexism in Hollywood that is universally acknowledged and which makes actresses especially vulnerable to the advances of powerful men? Where exactly did SHE fuck up?

Some extracts from the article though:

But the issue here is actually using feminism/”status” as a feminist to gaslight and manipulate the primary woman in his life. It’s not just “can you cheat on a woman and still be a feminist”?

And she did a solid by alerting Joss’s next victim.

Yeah. If it was just cheating? Fine, I’m not gonna care too much, not my life. But he abused his power and position as producer. He completely messed with his wife’s head over the whole thing. That’s the problem here and a lot of people don’t seem to have realised.

Truly unbelievable how many people are missing the point! He used his supposed feminism to gaslight and emotionally manipulate her - THAT is what disqualifies him as a feminist, not the cheating as such (though that one is also shitty, naturally).

It’s not about the cheating, it’s about him using feminism to gaslight her into mistrusting her own intuitive feeling that her husband’s constant contact with beautiful women was maybe not as “feminist” as he claimed. Did you even read the full article? He lied to her for 15 years and wrote some pretty fucked up,

Exactly. The power dynamic between him and the women he cheated with is a big part of what makes this behaviour really gross. The “Greek god” comment is very telling.

It’s entirely possible to be completely in favor of the ideals of feminism, and to push those ideals forward while still being a shitheel to the women, and others, in your life.
