Trump’s insider trading is, on its own, the worst corruption scandal in US history, with $$$ dwarfing Teapot Dome. So are Trump’s bribes-for-pardons. So is the Qatar bribe plane. So is all the Saudi money he (and Kushner) have pocketed. And the ballroom. And more. Each alone would be the worst.

Hanania has gone out of his way to try and persuade the mainstream media types and readers he wants to woo that he is no longer a racist. I don’t buy that, but he is at least putting on *the act.* So it’s extremely telling that this is how he continues to talk about women, rape, and even Epstein.

This manifests in Hanania's contempt for victims of rape and trafficking and his repeated support for age-gap relationships, even those that would constitute statutory rape in many jurisdictions. When The Bulwark broke news on Monday that Gen-Z looksmaxxing influencer Clavicular had been accused of rape, Hanania sprung into action discrediting the allegations. On X, he posted
Women who claim to be sexually assaulted or raped and then continue associating with their alleged attackers deserve zero sympathy.
They re either
1) liars; or
2) making it impossible to differentiate between real and fake allegations, hurting other men and women and society as a whole
A sane legal system would take this into account and not trust such women in criminal or civil lawsuits. They should also be socially stigmatized as bad people.

It's no mistake that this is all entangled with Hanania's horrific defenses of Jeffrey Epstein and the abuses on his private island. Hanania has posted that "Hating Epstein represents the essence of antisemitism. The resentment of mediocrities, conspiracy thinking, and chud moralism."
He went so far as to baldly assert that some of the women not only had it coming but even benefited in the end from Epstein's systemic rape operation:
One of the Epstein "trafficking victims" is a prostitute who he met when she was in her twenties, who had sex with him and reported that he gave her an orgasm.
There's more evidence of Epstein being a stud than there is he's what conspiracy theorists
claim.
