It would be much tougher, but with the power that his family had and all of the influence over people that allowed, I think they could pull it off again.

I dont even question it. The press would again line up to defend him. They would have to destroy some #metoo women. But they would do it again, I think Weinstein is just a mea culpa and a donation away from being back in business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would happen similarly to the way HC called out and treated the BC accusers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've told some of them before but the short of it was Palm Beach late 70's early 80's there was a certain bar in Palm Beach Teddy frequent nightly with his younger nephews. He liked the younger females and they liked him. he never left alone lets say. He would sit at the bar and drink we with rest of us buy a few rounds talk up a storm. Nice guy until he would get slobberknockered drunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,410 Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 Au Bar? Al Franken is a B List celeb at best. He in absolutely no way compares to the only American Family we think of as royals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a very different world. He should have resigned then. Probably should have been prosecuted. Today he’d be done. On the other hand, in a deep red state a so-called conservative might get away with shooting someone on 5th Avenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chappaquiddick happened today there would be women journalists throwing themselves under the bus to save him. NOW, PP, Hell maybe even Rose McGowan would be out there to protect him. You are just so wrong on this one. You think things have really changed? I think most of us consider it to be nothing more than new window dressing. We cant even have a discussion on Epstein's Lolita Island because of the Pols and Celebs that were there. Anyone wanna let Broderick have her day about her very well known rape? DIDNT THINK SO. HRC, the de facto face of the Dem Party at present is crippled in all this because everyone in America knows she compromised herself defending, smearing, destroying, other women to defend Bills sexual escapades. WJC was seen staring at Grande's ass during AFs funeral and it was all just a joke to the media. NBC is still defending trying to kill the Farrow Story. CBS was fighting letting Moonves go up until last week. Open your eyes, not much has changed at all. No one has gone to jail. No one has paid out compensation. As far we know all of these bastiches will be back at work tomorrow. Lauer had a gym bag of sex toys he kept in his office at 30 Rock that everyone knew about for 20 or more years. You dont flush out a culture that ingrained in permissiveness overnite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUDub 11,131 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Tex isn’t wrong. We live in a much different world now. Imagine if CNN or Fox had been around when this happened. Twitter. Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKW 86 7,410 Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 Fox. CNN, Twitter, and FB are all around now and no one I talking about Pols & Celebs (English Prince, WJC, Trump, etc) partying their but off on Epstein’s Lolita Island are they? If someone, anyone had covered Trump at Lolita Island, he wouldn’t be president now but would have meant pulling in other celebs too Rest my case...
