Dec 1

is that in his public persona, he tried to hide his vile abuse of women.

In other words, the pull of civil society rightfully disparaging his actions as despicable, immoral, disgusting and vile, caused him to hide.

In MAGAt world, despicable, immoral, disgusting and vileness is celebrated and elevated to the most prominent seat of power in the land.

It's not that misogyny and sexual abuse/exploitation of women hasn't existed before...it's that it's never been normalized and mainstreamed like Donnie Dipshit and the MAGAts have done.

Weinstein would NEVER be elected "leader of the free world" by Dem voters....MAGAts? Not so much.
