    It’s amazing that people think the “he adores his wife and family” line is in any way exculpatoryhttps://twitter.com/howardfineman/status/931914125260808192 …

    I've watched @alfranken unfairly bracketed w/ accused serial sexual predators. He & I've been family friends for decades. As a comic, he could be crude. He went too far (& apologized). BUT: he's NOT predatory, adores his wife & family & is a lifelong champion of women's rights.

        I heard seriously smart people argue against lefties’ Obama critiques with “but he has a beautiful family.” The attractive members of the Trump family don’t seem to be offering similar dispensation among that crowd.

        I’m sure Trump in some sense “loves his family” but no one, rightly, accepts that as exculpatory information in the slightest

        the number who think so is roughly equal to the number involved in sex scandals.

        it’s difficult (but important) to realize, that from “no abuse” to “abuse” is a step function. No slope with a scale, how bad the behavior had been.

        not exculpatory, but lumping a crude intent to be funny with Bill Cosby/Roman Polanski is equally specious. We gonna lump women who slap men in with Aileen Wuornos and Lorena Bobbitt?

        Any dude who jams his 👅 down a woman's throat, knowing that she doesn't want that, is probably not a particularly good, or emotionally mature, person.

        First he didn't mean it that way he was saying Frankin made a mistake and he is not a predator. Being lumped in with Moore, Weinstein, spacey, Trump, & the others is not right at all.
