tweet of hers (listing "all the 22 women who have credibly accused Trump of rape and sexual misconduct" ) retweeted individually by Conway for maximum impact for his nearly 600,000 followers.
Wu's thread starts here, and I'm not going to try to copy it below since so much of it involves important links:

But then, these days some very horrible things do turn out to be real.

(14,168 posts)Because her "act" is causing a lot of harm to society, in getting factual information out to people. I remember her way back during the Bush years honing her craft. She pioneered the RW "guest" tactic of using the interview time, not to answer the questions she was asked, but to promote Republican talking points, which were usually bold attacks on Democrats and liberals. She used her blonde good looks (back then) and her disarming smile to her advantage. She perfected the 'art' of using up most of the interview time talking over the host or other guests, deflecting questions with shocking counter-accusations that could derail any discussion. If nothing else, she could leave viewers confused about which side was right.
She has wrought this destruction of fair discourse for decades now. If she's a mole, she's dug herself a nice big underground mansion, had a family, and gone on hundreds of attacks with the other rodents pillaging all the farms in the neighbourhood...to the point that any kind of mole accomplishments pale as nothing compared to the damage she has done.

(3,396 posts)Ive been in a lot of locker rooms, and never heard anyone brag about committing a felony. Ive heard men claim that women wanted them, but never heard a man brag about forcing himself on a woman who didnt want him. If I had heard such a thing, I like to think I would have told the police.

(14,168 posts)How that did not put the final nail in the coffin to his campaign, which was already behind.
How his followers could literally dismiss it, and latch immediately onto whatever R spin doctor came up with the "locker room talk" spin. I mean, Democrats had a history of prominent contenders having to drop out like rocks because of sexual themed faux pas, Gary Hart, John Edwards to name a couple. (and these were consensual affairs) And this was the Republican party, who were supposed to be the "family values" party, no less. Surely many of us thought, that there'd be at least a dampaning down of support in the evangelical Christian community. But no, they ended up his biggest supporters.
It did expose the utter hypocrisy of the "blue dress" Repubicans though. What I don't get is that even after this hypocrisy is revealed, the same narrative is dragged out....since the free love sixties 'liberals' are still framed as the out of control sex maniacs. Biden or Franken can have some friendly squeeze decades ago brought up as somehow being equal to, if not worse, than anything a Republican admits to doing. The powers of self delusion Republicans have achieved is mind blowing.

But according to some sources, like others, his wife plays the good snarky Trumpster but in private she feels just like her hubby.
