I was thinking the same thing. While he was becoming a mogul he discovered that he could get the ladies because of the power he had.

I read a lot of biographies from all time frames. I am studying Alfred the Great. He did not grow up thinking he would ever be king but his brothers died and he became king. He understood what power can do to a man, how it can cause a man to have many mistresses and also cause a man to become sloppy in word and deed. When he was crowned he prayed that he would receive a reminder to keep his mind on serving God. He was given a stomach malady which lasted from the day of his enthronement to the day he had completed his most important work as king. Some have surmised that he had Crohn's disease, however it would not have completely stopped all of a sudden all on its own.

Makes Harvey look even more despicable when compared with Alfred. Harvey will never be known as a great man.

His fans like Meryl Streep will try to reinstate him, but he has ruined himself. The only thing that can save people who topple from high acclaim like this is actually to seek grace and mercy and repent and confess, including confess publicly and atone.

Don't hold your breath walting for it; even so, God wants no one to perish, and with Him, all things are possible.
