Donald Trump Would Expect Ivanka To Find New Career If She Were Sexually Harassed At Work

[RandySF]

WASHINGTON― Multiple female Fox News employees have offered detailed, horrifying accounts of sexual abuse by former Fox chief Roger Ailes. But Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump remains skeptical of their allegations, and said last week that if his daughter Ivanka were sexually harassed at work in the way these women describe, he hopes she would simply find another job.

“I would like to think she would find another career or find another company if that was the case,” he told USA Today columnist Kirsten Powers in a phone interview.

Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson filed a lawsuit against Ailes in July, claiming that he made sexual advances toward her and then when she resisted he retaliated by cutting her salary and on-air appearances and eventually terminating her contract. Since Carlson came forward, several more women have accused Ailes of harassment, including one booker for the conservative cable network who described his years of sexual abuse as “psychological torture.” Ailes resigned following the allegations, but he continues to deny them.

Trump told NBC’s Chuck Todd last week that it’s “very sad” the women are complaining about Ailes, who he called a “good person” and “very talented.”

“I can tell you that some of the woman that are complaining, I know how much he’s helped them. And even recently,” Trump said. “And when they write books that are fairly recently released, and they say wonderful things about him. And now, all of a sudden, they’re saying these horrible things about him. It’s very sad.”

1. Is that why we haven't seen her since he slapped her ass at the RNC?

[Wellstone ruled]

2. You got to be kidding!

Seriously? When our Daughter was being harassed by her Boss,my spouse and I along with a Attorney and audio evidence caused him to be removed physically from his office. What we discovered was,the Guy had and was Harassing others. The Company issued letters of Apology to each and every lady,as well as monetary awards and Company training to help prevent this from happening again. Then again this happened in a Blue State.

7. I think that's trumps point

Why didn't they sue immediately and wait for contracts to not be renewed.

[Wellstone ruled]

8. This happened to our Daughter during

her first week on the job. Started the first day,and really hand it to the Daughter,she was not going to be a victim.

12. That is great

That's the only way to rid the companies of jerks. Fight back immediately (through process).

3. Trump would be the bestest Enabler-in-Chief, let me tell you! nt

4. He didn't say new career

Please, let's not exaggerate. I know CNN refuses to tell the truth and exaggerates everything, but he said new job, not new career.

5. ?

His reply was startling, even by Trumpian standards. “I would like to think she would find another career or find another company if that was the case,” he said.

11. That's not what the post here said!

It said " he hopes she would simply find another job."

[Tempest]

14. That's not what the post said

It provided Drumpf's exact quote. Which said "“I would like to think she would find another career or find another company if that was the case,”

used to refer to a different person or thing from one already mentioned or known about.

Another (A DIFFERENT THING FROM ONE ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT) is the same thing as new.

6. I see you didn't read it.

“I would like to think she would find another career or find another company if that was the case,” he told USA Today columnist Kirsten Powers in a phone interview.

[prayin4rain]

10. Haha, he didn't say what he said. Sometimes, it's the only way to defend the orange conman. nt

[Tempest]

13. There are lies, damned lies and then there's scscholar

His EXACT words:

“I would like to think she would find another career or find another company if that was the case,”

Another career would be a new career.

16. "he hopes she would simply find another job."

That is what the article says. I've seen other sources that added the word career, but this article does not state what you claim it does. I don't understand why you call me a liar when you can read the opposite of your claim in black and white. Are you going to apologize?

[Tempest]

17. You are aware that wasn't a direct quote from Trump, right?

It was a paraphase.

Drumpf's EXACT quote was provided and you continue to ignore it.

"Are you going to apologize?"

For correctly pointing out you lied? No.

[randome]

9. IOW, she would run like a coward and not stand and fight.

Hey, it's anyone's choice whether to find another job or to file a complaint. Different circumstances, different personalities, etc. But to make it appear as if there is only one approach is bizarre.

Which is so 'normal' for him that it's no longer bizarre, really.

15. Since he's probably guilty of sexual harassment, that answer makes a lot of sense.

I'm sure he completely sympathizes with Ailes, and NOT the harassed women.

18. Agree with other comments, but want to add that he ignores her privilege

Few people have parents with the wealth and fame of Trump.
