Hope Hicks - Musings

[WiVoter]

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard today about Hicks’ and Cheato’s relationship. Did they have an affair? I don’t know, but I’m sure it wouldn’t surprise anyone.

She subtly or not so suddenly seems to be trying to negatively impact Michael Cohen’s testimony & help Vonshitshispants. Then she breaks down and the witness stand. Is she doing that to sort of stay in Cheeto’s Good graces after her testimony?

Question to DU: Do do you think her testimony will be better for the prosecution or the defense?

1. I think it likely they were having an affair.

She operated like his office wife with benefits.

2. She is no fan of cohens, but she really isnt hurting anything

All of his key testimony is corroborated, including by her. Yes, he was aggressive, abrasive, intrusive, and obnoxious; a true trumpian. But his story is sound.

She said trump admitted to the payoff. So he knew about it. She admitted he told her to change the response to the news inquiries.

Trump was involved at every step. She confirmed that.

She did shit on Cohen, but she didn't dent his story.

3. I'll say no affair.

He can surround himself with attractive women without requiring that they degrade literally ALL of themselves to THAT degree.

This is America. There are actual nude models and prostitutes who are available for hire and pretty enough for the secret disgusting purpose.

12. But Trump likes to seduce and use trickery, manipulation.

Aggression, control, power.

That is part of the turn on.

Just paying for it is not as fun for him.

14. But he's a father and father-in-law.

I can see him drawing certain lines which he ultimately doesn't cross no matter how beautiful the woman is.

At some level, he HAS to know how gross he is. And that physical intimacy will absolutely be off the table, even if dreamed about.

16. There is no line he won't cross with beautiful woman.

He has made it clear he thinks he is so handsome, so wonderful,
all women will love him.

He also loves tricking women into having sex with him.
Being clever and aggressive.

EJ Carroll was most certainly not his first rape.
There are more, many more.

He is a ruthless, dangerous narcissist and sociopath.
Who rapes women. Seduces them.
Attacks them.

Being a father and father in law never crosses his mind.

4. Haven't you heard! Trump considered Hicks to be another daughter!

That's the MSM spin on it, anyway. Like their relationship was so innocent!

But considering how Trump talked about and interacted with his real daughter Ivanka in public, it's obvious Trump has zero idea how to treat a daughter - at least one he considers attractive - as anything other than a sex object.

If they didn't have an affair, it was only because Hicks turned it down. Since she was known to have an affair with Corey Lewandowski she clearly has shit taste in men. But my jury is just out on whether she had one with creepy old Trump.

As far as her testimony, I haven't heard anything about it today that makes me think it is helping the prosecution. Hopefully that will change next week.

8. shit taste in men

I wonder if she ever had to change donny do-do's diaper?

9. She did steam the wrinkles out of his pants while he was wearing them...

[blogslug]

5. I think she broke down because the defense was about to question her

She's a prosecution witness and is paying for her own lawyer but I'm absolutely sure she would rather not do this.

No, I don't think she slept with that creepy old man. I think she is devoted to him because of access to power and her shitty politics. He favored her because she's pretty.

10. You just called a woman "slutty" -- in 2024

Wow.

7. She was morally ok with all the

cheating and crimes being committed by the con, it was all about how can we contain it so it doesn't get out.
Anybody with any sense of morality would have quit as soon as they figured out that they were working for a crook, criminal conman.
And there is no way that she or anyone working closely with the con did not see how he operated.

[Irish_Dem]

13. Whether consummated or not, there was a sexual component there.

Trump only sees women as sexual objects.
To be used and exploited.

And most women are not going to be comfortable steaming clothing while
a man is wearing the clothing, on a regular basis.

She was in every meeting, had a great deal of power.

Something was going on.
It was more than just business.

15. After hearing how she testified today

her saying she was nervous multiple times then crying, I think he was grooming her very slowly because she was pretty innocent.

You can tell it worked by all the good things she said about him.

Makes me think of the McDougal woman she had feelings for him but broke off affair because she felt guilty.

He takes young women and gives them higher end jobs and feeds their egos. They get caught up in thinking how important he is, remember these are party faithful women republicans.

17. I will forever be amazed that so many people

thought clown was an OK guy.
