Victor Davis Hanson details why he believes Doug Emhoff dodges ‘Me Too movement’ cancellation

Hoover Institution senior fellow Victor Davis Hanson said Tuesday on his podcast that Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff has avoided “Me Too” cancellation due to President Joe Biden’s past.

Three friends of an ex-girlfriend of Emhoff told the Daily Mail in a report released Oct. 2 that Emhoff allegedly slapped the unidentified then-girlfriend during a 2012 alcohol-fueled fight. On “The Victor Davis Hanson Show,” Hanson noted it’s unclear if the accusations against Emhoff are true, but during the “Me Too” movement, he likely would have been canceled, citing U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who faced sexual assault accusations while a nominee for his current position.

“Well, in my view, I don’t know if it happened until all three of them come forward, identify themselves and make an affidavit. That hasn’t happened. But according to the rules of ‘Me Too,’ that doesn’t have to happen. You just have to say something, and your career is destroyed. But think about it, this was much more recent than was the accusations of Kavanaugh, and much more corroborated by witnesses, and much more violent,” Hanson said.

Hanson referenced an early August report from the Daily Mail claiming Emhoff had an affair around 2009 with his then-young daughter’s nanny during his marriage to his first wife, Kerstin, which he later confirmed in a statement to CNN. The nanny was also employed at the Los Angeles private school his daughter attended, and the affair reportedly resulted in a pregnancy. A source told the Daily Mail the woman did not “keep the baby,” and CBS News reported she also did not “have the baby.”

“Did she deliver the child? Did she have a miscarriage? Did she have a coerced abortion? No one knows, and the media does not want to talk about it. Now, that would be a news story in itself, given the rules of ‘Me Too’. But when you juxtapose that, that he had just given a large interview with Jen Psaki, and he was being used, along with this buffoon Tim Walz, to redefine a new empathetic masculinity,” Hanson added.

Hanson stated that the “Me Too” movement effectively “died” during Biden’s 2020 campaign after multiple women accused the then-Democratic presidential nominee of “violating their space.” He also highlighted accusations from former Senate aide Tara Reade, who alleges Biden sexually assaulted her in a Senate corridor in 1993.

“So ‘Me Too,’ remember, died [when] Joe Biden … was on the campaign trail, and it really died in the summer of 2019 when he declared his candidacy and people came forward. Remember about seven women, and they said, allegedly, he had violated their space,” Hanson said.  “And then we had Tara Reid come forward … she said that he had cornered her, and then digital — I’m trying to be polite for our audience — digitally penetrated her, raped her… “

“They dropped all of the accusations against him by women and by Tara Reid in particular. And that was the end of ‘Me Too,’ because after that, no one could be credibly destroyed because they had let the future president of the United States get away with that,” Hanson concluded.

  1. DOUGGIE is an immoral dirty little selfish TOXIC COWARD. NO REAL MAN slaps a woman, betrays his wife, and pays for the abortion of his own child – ONLY COWARDS do that. Douggie and HARRIS are immoral little selfish anti-american weak, pathetic excuses of human waste.
    IT is the MORAL imperative of ADULTS to protect and defend INNOCENTS. The slaughter of babies if EVIL – and the support of HAMAS, funding our enemies, destroying AMERICA by flooding it with ILLEGALS, and spending the USA n to poverty is also EVIL – exactly what BUCK HARRIS and BUCK COMMUNIST WALZ are – evil.
    VOTE TRUMP/VANCE, America, because our lives, our REPUBLIC (THE USA is NOT NOT NOT a democracy which is mob rule by the majority and excatly what the ELECTORAL COLLEGE prevents) our FREEDOM depend on it!
