...WHAAAT....THE....****???
“I moved on her, and I failed. I’ll admit it,”
“I did try and f--- her. She was married,”
“Whoa!” Trump says. “I’ve got to use some Tic Tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump says. “You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.” “And when you’re a star, they let you do it,” Trump says. “You can do anything.”

So he tried to seduce her; big bloody deal. Consenting adults you dope. Good? No, but he is not my moral guide.

Anyone home?
Guess you forgot about the "they let you do it" part.
I wouldn't be surprised if Trump was just as bad as Weinstein. We just don't know. In fact, even Weinstein himself hasn't been proven to have done these things he is accused of. There is the one tape of him being creepy as **** and admitting he grabbed some young model's breasts without any kind of permission from her. That's about it, as far as I know.
What all of these assholes have in common is total disregard for consent. They don't care what those women want, they just want to grab all the ass that they can get away with.
I'd be willing to bet they're both guilty of abhorrent behavior toward many women. When you have that much $$ and power, I can see how it would go to a weak or impulsive man's head.
BUT ... that is not the legal standard we hold people to. The "he probably did it" standard. In criminal cases at least, it's beyond a reasonable doubt. And generally for accusations this serious, I'll stick with the legal definition. I think in Weinstein's case he has pretty much come out and admitted it, but Trump did not. That's why Trump cannot be compared to Weinstein.
