I love that this is the accusation the right is going with. It's like they have no women on campaign staff. Especially younger ones.
There's a massive generational difference in how this is seen.
80s: "She's a slut sleeping her way to the top."
00s: "He was her boss and much older than her. Very difficult to refuse."
Using a bunch of 80s arguments with women under about 60 is going to backfire spectacularly. What half successful or slightly ambitious woman hasn't faced accusations of being too ambitious or faced actual predation?
It's honestly the most entertaining thing to watch of this twist in their election. Lots of guys revealing themselves to their wives, sisters and daughters for the Neanderthals they are.
Can't say I saw it coming. But that completely unhinged and undisciplined reaction is marketing she could never buy and will absolutely benefit from. They could have made it about her record. Instead they jumped right to one of the core accusations that strikes a nerve with half the population.
