Summary

Kimberly Guilfoyle, Trump’s pick for ambassador to Greece, faces scrutiny over sexual misconduct allegations from her time at Fox News, including claims of abusive behavior toward a female assistant that led to a multimillion-dollar settlement.

Guilfoyle denies the allegations, but her nomination reflects Trump’s pattern of appointing loyalists with controversial histories, including those accused of sexual misconduct.

Critics question her qualifications and the timing of the announcement, coinciding with rumors of a breakup with Donald Trump Jr.

The Senate’s response remains uncertain, highlighting broader societal divides over addressing sexual harassment in public office.

    Being a sexual predator is a basic requirement for getting anywhere in Trumpland.

    You don’t usually her the ladies getting the sexual harassment claim. Whatever she did must have been pretty substantial.

    Starting to feel bad for gators after calling Trump’s cabinet swamp creatures for so long. Gators just eat you, they’re not gross too.

      It’s always projection with this bunch. That’s why when they started up with the Q-NUT “protect the children” and the blood-libel sounding stuff that dealt with adenochrome and children and sex trafficking children, I started getting scared that we’d find out some of these monsters were literally doing not only the pedo stuff, but also the blood stuff…

    given how unknown (to me) all these nominations are, i’m beginning to wonder if he’s picking them based solely on whether or not they have any sexual abuse allegations

      Haha

      Part of me wonders if he’s having trouble finding willing folks (let me rephrase: quality willing folks) to do these jobs because 1. Most half-intelligent half-sane people know what he’s about 2. He’s about 2 years from being irrelevant to the Republican party and he’s not the person you want to be tied to. 3. He’s burned so many people that it really doesn’t make sense for reasonable people to be interested.

      I think (maybe it’s naive hope) that after mid-terms we’ll see the party start to look beyond Trump and effectively make him less important. We are sort of seeing it with the Senate putting pressure on some of his picks (Gaetz).

      If he refused hiring people with sexual harassment allegations against them then he would have no one to hire.

    I’m surprised, you basically never hear sexual misconduct allegations against women. It’s always very one-sided.

      Some of that is due to patriarchal values (women can’t harm men) which lowers reporting and those receiving reports not taking them seriously.

      Some of it is due to disparity between it being committed by women for the first reason.

      There are crimes that are wildly disparate by gender. Baby napping for instance is almost exclusively committed by women. And even when u find a case committed by a male, it’s nearly universal that a woman put him up to it. It seems to be correlated to post partum depression.

    It never ceases to amaze me that the party of ‘family values’ and ‘traditional families’ doesn’t have a single member that fits that category. They are all sex obsessed sleezebags that cheat on each other and sexually assualt people.
