HYPOCRISY WATCH: Look who's defending accused serial sexual predator — and Dem donor — Harvey Weinstein

Whoa. Hollywood heavyweight producer Harvey Weinstein isn’t looking too good today:

Lucky for him, he’s got a legal heavyweight in his corner: None other than the illustrious Lisa Bloom:

Lisa Bloom, a lawyer advising Mr. Weinstein, said in a statement that “he denies many of the accusations as patently false.” In comments to The Times earlier this week, Mr. Weinstein said that many claims in [former Weinstein employee Lauren] O’Connor’s memo were “off base” and that they parted on good terms.

Ms. Bloom, who has been advising Mr. Weinstein over the last year on gender and power dynamics, called him “an old dinosaur learning new ways.” She said she had “explained to him that due to the power difference between a major studio head like him and most others in the industry, whatever his motives, some of his words and behaviors can be perceived as inappropriate, even intimidating.”

In other words, according to Bloom, the litany of allegations against Weinstein are just a big misunderstanding. He’s an old man! He doesn’t know any better!

It’s nice that Lisa’s willing to give him the benefit of the doubt like that. Others weren’t as fortunate as Weinstein.

No kidding.

Sure looks that way, doesn’t it?

Meanwhile, where’s the uproar from the Left? In the wake of the Las Vegas shooting, liberals and Dems were calling on Republican politicians to return donations from the NRA. So, by the same token, shouldn’t Democratic politicians return all the money they’ve gotten from Harvey Weinstein over the years? Lord knows there’s been plenty of it.

This is highly problematic.

Lisa Bloom and Democrats should be taking to the streets in their pu**y hats over this.
