Liberals really are taking the sexual harassment revelations about movie mogul and Democrat donor Harvey Weinstein pretty hard, so much so that they’re lashing out against whatever’s handy — and that almost always ends up being Donald Trump.
Remember that one Wednesday night last October, less than a month before the election, when the New York Times, CBS News, and the Palm Beach Post all dropped sexual assault allegations against Trump within the space of an hour?
In last hour:
– NYT report on the 2 women
– CBS report on 10-yr-old girl
– Palm Beach Post report woman saying Trump groped her.— Dylan Byers (@DylanByers) October 12, 2016
Remember how the media didn’t follow up on any of those allegations once it was determined they weren’t going to sink Trump’s campaign, and that the Billy Bush tape seemed to be resonating with the public more? That’s how deeply they cared about the women in those articles.
Count Pollster Nate Silver among those who seem awfully upset that people aren’t automatically making the comparison he thinks exists between Trump and Weinstein:
Hard to think of any difference between Weinstein & Trump other than one of them was his PARTY's NOMINEE FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

Now, we’ve already been through this once today with liberal singer John Legend, who seems to think there are different standards for men’s behavior depending on their jobs — as if women who were harassed by Weinstein found it less appalling because he was just a movie producer.

Yup, that's the ONLY difference.

Seems to me, you'd be a little more upset about a big mogul masturbating into a plant while trying to interview him, but maybe not. https://t.co/gAMszTT86A

Just like Jimmy Kimmel and the NRA, he’s more angry with Trump voters than he is with Harvey Weinstein.
Ummm comments are different than masturbating in front of an actress….

Did an entire industry conspire for decades to cover up what Trump did? https://t.co/D0aFJDgVWx

What did Trump do?

The former settled with the women that claimed abuse whereas the later never did and the 'accusers' just disappeared after election? https://t.co/XHzklr82Ub

Sorry, Nate, but there’s a giant donkey in the room we can’t just ignore.

And the other party's nominee was a woman who is married to a former president who did THE SAME THINGS https://t.co/9YGVh2EjfW

I could buy this if the Dems didn't worship at the altar of Clinton. Instead, it's just rank hypocrisy. https://t.co/axbJCVv0KI
