Mara Gay: Trump’s Response to E. Jean Carroll Allegation Shows that He ‘Doesn’t Love Women’
EXCERPT:
GAY: "Well, all I can say is if only he was explaining himself in a court room. Unfortunately, that’s not possible because the statute of limitations has run out in that case. You know, it’s interesting, any woman who’s ever been sexually harassed or assaulted knows that that’s the language of a predator. I wasn’t there. I don’t know. Everyone deserves a day in court. That’s not going to happen in this case. It’s funny, because in his denial the President actually manages to revictimize this woman, to objectify her, to take away her humanity. Doesn’t use her name. Says, of course I wouldn’t have done it because, you know, essentially she’s not good looking enough. That’s the language of a man who doesn’t love women and appreciate them but actually hates them and likes to dominate them. This is not — rape isn’t about sex, right? Rape is about power. And I think that’s what we’re seeing on display. It’s grotesque. It makes you wonder what his supporters are thinking."
