In particular:

“On behalf of all the women (and I know it’s many) you have abused in some way, I say … get some help and take an honest look at yourself,” Penelope Hegseth wrote, stating that she still loved him.

Trump announced he intends to nominate Pete Hesgeth to be Secretary of Defense.

This is part of a broader pattern, including:

    When your own mother condemns your actions towards multiple women over the years, you know you have really fucked up.

    This isn’t the automatic disqualifier it would be if he was a Democrat.

    Does this mean she accused him repeatedly over the years, or that he mistreated women for years, for which she accused him?

      The latter. Per the article:

      “On behalf of all the women (and I know it’s many) you have abused in some way, I say … get some help and take an honest look at yourself,” Penelope Hegseth wrote, stating that she still loved him.

        Nice sleuthing. I have so many questions about what else might be written in the article, I will start writing out a long comment.

              That’s normal. On reddit, only about 2 or 3 percent click through to the article. Given the user interface similarity, I’d expect the same here

              Sorry, I was making a joke, similar to the point of PC, as if I couldn’t be bothered to read the comment they were replying to.
