He once mocked a reporter with cerebral palsy. That alone should have been the end of him as a candidate, but somehow his followers were just fine with that. So they're probably just fine with him being abusive to women.
It's pretty well known that he raped Ivana during his first marriage and that he has publicly talked about both his daughters in crude sexual terms. So yeah, he was and probably still is a monster at home.
The most screwed up thing is that doesn't even matter, because its old news. Decades of lying and controversy (predating his political candidacy) somehow... don't meet the attention threshold for algorithms? Is that the phrase?
It's especially weird because I have older relatives that knew way more about "pre politics Trump" than I did, and now all that is forgotten somehow.
There is no somehow. The media has normalized his behavior the entire time.
They are all complicit.
