Hollywood mogul as well as big Dem donor and fundraiser Harvey Weinstein is in desperate spin mode after a New York Times report about allegations of sexual harassment over the period of decades. Former Obama NatSec spokesman Tommy “dude, that was like two years ago” Vietor’s comment about Weinstein appears to lack some self-awareness:
Harvey Weinstein has been a well-known scumbag for a long time via @rtraister https://t.co/vOkK35D93H

It’s nice that Democrats are helping point out their utter hypocrisy:
Dude, you just admitted the Dems hung with a well-known scumbag for a long time. https://t.co/lRuaczCETJ

And he just… tweeted it out.
And you did nothing?

Than why didn't you or anyone else warn @BarackObama not to have him throw fundraisers for you, have your daughter work for him? https://t.co/4O6Od5B40A

But his checks to Democrats sure cleared, so he was in and out of the Obama White House like it was motel renting rooms by the hour. https://t.co/nSEUdcjcW7

And how many times was he a guest at the Obama White House? Nine times?

Maybe since Bill Clinton is the standard-bearer of the party that includes Ted Kennedy, Anthony Weiner and John Edwards, Weinstein’s alleged behavior didn’t seem like such a big deal in comparison.
That explains the numerous visits to the Obama White House… Hypocrisy & dirty $$$ are the fuel of Democrats. Don't presume to lecture us. https://t.co/Hha3plWj7u

This of course is why he hosted a fundraising soirée for your boss at his estate that required public beaches to be closed

Tommy, you left out, "but we ignored it for this long, because he kept writing those big old checks".

Thanks for pointing that out, Tommy. https://t.co/5NRhXbFFTZ

But as long has he keep the money flowing, his behavior was over looked.

Again, I don't know if the "we totally knew Weinstein was an assailant" crowd are making the point they think are https://t.co/EG5DPPmHRt
