"Kim Jong Un hit on you!" Trump said, according to Sanders. "He did! He f---ing hit on you!"

 

Sanders replied, "Sir, please stop."

 

"Well, Sarah, that settles it. You're going to North Korea and taking one for the team!" Trump told her, Sanders said. "Your husband and kids will miss you, but you'll be a hero to your country!"

Grab 'em by the pussy.

Never thought I’d be sympathetic to SHS but 2020 continues to surprise. 

 

I don't know the context of this story as she details it in the book. Just what is in the article in the OP. But it wouldn't surprise me if she wrote this trying to show that President Doofus has a sense of humor or something.

I’m still not. I have no sympathy for people who voted for, supported, or chose to work with the face eating tiger, who then got their face eaten. 


Don’t get me wrong, I’m not shedding any crocodile tears for her. I just can’t get pumped about anyone being sexually harassed, even if it happened after they willingly worked for the Pussy Grabber In Chief.

We've seen Trump be a womanizing piece of shit for decades.

 

She heard the Access Hollywood tape. She and her fraud of a father defended the fuck out of Trump.

 

Did she think by attaching herself to him and joining his administration for power, followed by I'm sure a tell-all book down the road with which she'll make a profit, that he wouldn't do the same to her?

 

Leopards and faces.

Was there ever a more dishonest press secretary in history of the country? Didn't she stop giving briefings all together at one point? None of that justifies her being harrassed, but I'll be damned if I feel bad for her.

I’m not saying I feel bad for her per say, but where we do we draw the line when it comes to “well, she knew what she was getting into”? Like, let’s say theoretically that Trump raped her while she was working for me. Would we still be shrugging and say it’s her fault for working under him? I’m sure most here wouldn’t, but why make an arbitrary distinction about what forms of sexual harassment are worthy of sympathy and which ones aren’t?

 

Should our sympathy for women end when they make decisions that we deem unwise? I’m sorry, but some of the language being used here sounds awfully close to victim-blaming.

I'll be more than happy to be the asshole and freely admit without reservation that the extent of my sympathy/empathy/etc. exists in direct proportion to just how much I hate the other person.

 

If I despise an individual enough, then the depth of my schadenfreude has no bottom.  I will leave the higher morality in this war to those "better" than myself.

I think it's a fair question to ask what makes this different from, "She shouldn't have walked down that street," because it's easy to be progressive but fall into behaviors you dislike.

 

I'm not actively hoping something happens to her. I don't actually feel good that Trump said that. But I'm not going to sympathize. You accused all these women of lying, normalized Trump's womanizing talk, threw out all our phony morals to back him, and then he did what you already knew he did when you acted as if it was no big deal and shouldn't stop him from being president. You thought that behavior didn't disqualify him.

 

This isn't, "What did you expect wearing that," to me. This isn't someone behaving normally and then being attacked through no fault of their own and then being blamed for the attack because they dressed sexy. This is, "You defended the behavior of this one guy and then worked for this one guy after defending that behavior, and then he exhibited that same behavior toward you. Why'd you expect him to treat you differently? What makes you special? Weren't you the one who didn't think this was disqualifying and showed no sympathy toward any of Trump's accusers?"" 

 

That's not even going into the phony religious-right talk their family spewed while going all-in on Trump. People like her are the reason women who have been raped and assaulted are not believed. People like her slowed LGBT progress, where some of our elderly gay friends died before being able to finally tie the knot because people like her father campaigned against it. People like her are why people like me are laughed at when we bring up Trump's sub-human behavior. 

 

There's an irony to her reaction to this that is stunning. It's like, "Socialism for me, but not for thee." Maybe I'd be sympathetic if she said she was totally wrong about everything she ever believed.

 

All that said, I don't feel good feeling this way toward someone, so it's not even schadenfreude for me.

I'm not blaming her but at the same time, is she really a victim? Like if someone says "Do not feed the bears" and a person feeds the bears banyway and gets ripped to shreds are they really a victim? I don't feel good that this happened to her but I don't feel bad either. I pretty much feel :shrug:

I liken this situation to Herman Cain catching and dieing from covid after attending a rally indoors while not wearing a mask. I don't wish this on people, but it's an almost inevitable consequence of your actions and choices given the context.

Donald is a piece of shit. And I’m not saying she deserved it. I’m just not going to waste my sympathy on somebody like her. It’s not just one decision, it was a series of decisions to associate with him and his bag of deplorable. Be complicit in everything they’ve done and said, and lied to American public or try to cover up things even worse than what happened to her. 
 

If Hitler had Joseph Goebbels starved and gassed to death in 1945, seemingly on a whim, would we sit here and say “oh poor guy. What a shame.”? And most of us don’t condone state sanctioned executions/murders either.

If an abusive husband eventually kills his wife, is she not a victim because she didn’t leave soon enough?

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders is doubling down on her argument that Donald Trump’s 2016 election victory “answered” groping allegations made during the campaign.

Actively covering for him is so completely fucking different than simply deciding to ignore the reports.

SHS went in intent on covering for him already knowing full well what a shitbag he is. That's not analogous to marrying someone and then feeling trapped when they become abusive.
