The Sexual-Abuse Cabinet

Nowhere is this more apparent than in President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet and close staff picks, several of whom have been accused of sexual misconduct"not to mention the president himself, who has not only been credibly accused but found liable for sexual abuse in court. It's like the dark inverse of this (lightly paraphrased) line from The Incredibles: If everyone is super, then no one will be. This appears to be the emerging conservative mentality. If everyone is a sexual predator, then no one's history of misdeeds matters (or, at least, no one needs to be held accountable). MAGA Republicans seem to be having their own #MeToo moment, except here, a growing cohort of men is essentially saying: Oh, another man accused of sexual predation? #MeToo"and so what? Being accused of sexual harassment, abuse, or assault is no longer disqualifying; on the right, it has been normalized. It may even be an asset.
