I think using the term "sleep with" these older men who want you "to hear the music in my hotel room" maybe a bit mild? I would say to get you in a position/place where you would likely be assaulted/raped

That's certainly fair and accurate! Now if only there were a singular word for this...

I guess I'm not privelaged. I grew up in Highland Park, Illinois and got a full scholarship to study cello with Ronald Leonard at Eastman. I was raped by a Yemenite, who was the husband of a good friend, in Hofheim, Germany around 3 a.m. in 1997 on Christmas day.

“Case in point: Hillary Clinton was unlikable…” She chose to vilify a young 20-something intern (barely older than their daughter) because her husband couldn’t keep his dick in his pants and used his position of power over a subordinate. But in the 1990s, no one gave a shit about Monica and made her out to be the villain. Where was NOW for Monica??? And, Hillary has never apologized to Monica (who did to both Hil and her daughter). Hillary is a piss-poor excuse for being “pro woman.”

Sure, but in a comparison between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, one of them was qualified to be President and the other had a penis.

I hear what you’re saying. And that’s why I intentionally left out the part of the quote about Trump. It’s about Hillary and the cult around her that conveniently forgets/ignores the flaying she did to Monica… a victim, herself.

Bad behavior is not up for “comparison” in my ethics.

I have no respect for Hillary as a woman.

I don’t disagree with you. And I agree that her bad behavior should be called out for what it is. Unfortunately for us, politics, and especially Presidential politics, is an either/or choice. I don’t think Hillary is a good person, but I do think she would have made a decent President.

Again, I do hear what you're saying. And I appreciate this respectful convo. We're coming from different points of view, but we are listening to one another.

Thank you.

About HRC, I know her very public history because I witnessed it. Did you know that after becoming First Lady, she FIRED the entire White House Travel office staff to install her own people? These were career civil servants, not patronage jobs... just regular folks - fired because she had payback to give. This IS who HRC is. Throughout her husband's term in office she referred to the many women he had affairs with as "Bimbos." Never once publicly admonishing his behavior. Then there was the Clinton Foundation taking multi-million dollar donations from foreign governments... and who do you think drew a salary as a board member???

HRC wanted a craddle-to-grave socialist government state. I don't subscribe to that political opinion. I like to remind people of this: in the 1930s the first thing the Nazis did was take over the funding of culture (radio, films, art and music). Then, their government determined what was and was not to be performed - censorship by controlling people's access to information. I can imagine in this country how the NEA (if there was a socialist-marxist government in power) could be used against a free society. All one has to do is look at how the legacy media hid Biden's failing mental acuity for the last 3 years... the "crazy conservative media" didn't have it "wrong." And now the legacy media is working overdrive to oust him from the DNC November ballot.

Thankfully, The FREE PRESS is here calling it all out.
