Hell has frozen over.
CNN absolutely slammed both Barack and Michelle Obama for their deafening silence over their friend and donor Harvey Weinstein’s sexual abuse accusations.
“Where are the Obamas? Where is Michelle Obama? Where is President Obama?” Dana Bash asked.
“I mean, he–Harvey Weinstein was a, and probably still is a big supporter of them and certainly of their, of the president’s political efforts. And just let’s just pretend that the shoe was on the other foot and this was a Republican, somebody who is in Hollywood, who is a Republican who is alleged to have done these things and gave to Republican Presidents–can you imagine the outrage if they weren’t condemning this behavior? I mean, it makes no sense at all that they are not coming out and saying something. Nevermind the question of of the donations,” Bash added.
CNN’s Chris Cillizza also pointed out that Michelle Obama praised Weinstein in 2013. He also added that Weinstein is a friend and financial supporter of the Obama’s and Democrats.
Perhaps the big pink elephant in the room is too big for even CNN to ignore. They are correct; if the shoe was on the other foot and Weinstein were a friend of Trump or Bush, the outrage would be heard around the world.
If it weren’t for double standards, the Democrats would have no standards at all.
