Donald Trump's lawyer Michael Cohen has ignited a debate about fatherly pride, after tweeting a picture of his daughter in lingerie.
He shared a black and white modelling shot of his daughter, 21-year-old Samantha, with the words: "So proud of my Ivy League daughter... brains and beauty channeling her Edie Sedgwick".
Minutes later, he found himself branded "Mr Creepypants" by critics on Twitter.
Several of the replies drew angry retaliation from Mr Cohen.
"Most fathers don't post lingerie shots of their daughters. I guess #Trump must be rubbing off on you," one tweeter said.
The angry lawyer responded: "Beauty and brains you a-hole! It's a modeling shot remake from an old Edie Sedgwick photo. #hater"
President Trump once said of his eldest daughter: "If Ivanka weren't my daughter, perhaps I'd be dating her."

thank you for not making me a woman"...

(28,252 posts)And if the male politicians they support treat their own daughters as sex objects, they're apparently OK with it. Absolutely disgusting.

(7,178 posts)Great that he now has totally outed himself as a person of dysfunctional character all the way. This IMO good information.
Trump attracts dysfunction and repels health people (and banks). TOXIC to everyone, including his supporters who try to act like they are not aware of it.

(9,067 posts)whatever name you give it, there are so many cases of his culture of womanizing with no rules...rape, pornography, and child abuse...that I can't imagine why the news won't put the picture together.
Trump associates with an abusive group of people who treat women as livestock. Cohen is just one of the gang.

(16,423 posts)Yes, Jack Birch was a 1970s porn star, most famous for appearing in Deep Throat. He functions as Thora's manager, although not a very good one, since all he seems to do is cause trouble and get her fired.
Jack's background might help explain his rather bizarre behavior, particularly when it involves his daughter's body. For instance, during the filming of Winter of Frozen Dreams, Jack insisted on being present for her adult scenes. Now, this was understandable with American Beauty, because she was underage and parental supervision was required for anything involving nudity. But she was now 26, and Dad was still hanging around, giving the crew instructions on how to make his baby girl look like a good lay.
He even threatened to pull her off the movie and kill the assistant directors because they weren't shooting the sex scenes the way he wanted. At one point, he gave the actor playing Thora's lover a "thumbs up," while he was having sex with her.

(1,036 posts)Every time my daughter leaves the house I make sure she is covered from ankle to neck .... no exposed skin at all. Usually just a hat, but sometimes a veil.
I discourage her from going out in public alone, and forbid her from speaking with men unless accompanied by a male member of our family. When she comes of age I will marry her off and maybe get a couple of goats in exchange, unless she spoils herself than I may have to beat her to death ... or stone her, depending on her level of offense.
