How so?
Remember how effective the “Romney was a bully” and “McCain had an affair with a lobbyist” stories were. I wonder why McCain’s New York Times friends didn’t bring that one up at his funeral?
Quote: “How so?”
From the second the #MeTo movement started I felt it was weird that the democrats were so willing to sacrifice their own, especially since Harvey Weinstein was their biggest Holllyweird donor and funding organizer. Usually, a democrat could commit murder and the party would support it.
Why would they do this? They did this so that they could create their political nuclear weapon to whip out when necessary. They sacrificed their own so that they could make #MeTo an unassailable weapon.
Now, here we are with an allegation dating from high school. Yet because it is #MeTo, the usual suspect, weak in the knees, GOPe Senate Rino’s won’t have a fraction of the courage to stand up to this. They will accept the premise of the charge, namely, that the victims deserves to be believed, that denials or attacks on the accuser are “blaming the victim.”
The only question I have is this, why did the democrats wait so long to pull out a strategy most of us knew was coming? My only guess was that Murkowski or Collins signaled that they just needed an opening to flip. Voila.
Cue Gloria Allred, Cue the usual “lawyers” who are really just political terrorists.
