The NYT has posted an article online that purports to report on the Donald’s behavior with the ladies. It’s headed “Crossing the Line: How Donald Trump Behaved with Women in Private”. If that sounds soft, the story itself is a down pillow. A handful of women each relate their own separate anecdotes illustrating the Donald’s piggishness, condescension and self-aggrandizement. There’s a beaut about him having the Miss Universe contestants dress and parade for his own private viewing. There’s another creepy instance of him describing his daughter as hot. Basically, though, there’s no story here. I enjoy gossip and dirt as much as the next guy (more, probably) but there’s no cohesive story here. No smoking gun. And if you haven’t identified the orange man as a self-deceiving parody of machohood jerk by now, this article isn’t going to do it for you. Its greatest goal is to stay litigation-proof and it ends up pointless as a result, which is a shame. Next time, let’s start with Fred the father’s mistresses and move on to Donald’s.
