[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tom seemed really surprised about the pregnancy, I think. But I agree an abortion won't happen. Sure, Shiv could probably pay somebody enough to do it, even as far a long as she is. She might even be thinking about an abortion and she told Tom just to be extra cruel to him. But now that he knows, he can stop it, maybe legally (I'm not sure), maybe by telling her family or by threatening to leak to the news that she's having a late-term abortion. And Shiv knows this. So I don't think she would have told Tom unless she was planning to have the baby.

I like Willa more and more. She was supportive of Collin, but she also expressed her reservations about Mencken. At least as much as the spouse-and-former-escort of the least important sibling has any leeway to express reservations.[/quote]

She wasn't just supportive of him, she was using him as her puppet.  She knew that Connor staying in the race would help get a Democrat in the White House and she told him not to drop out (he said she was the only one he was listening to).  Even though it cost them over $100 million.  How could any far left democrat marry into that family.  Total gold digger.  I have zero respect for her.  [/quote]

My impression of Willa is that she is simply not that political at all and doesn't care about any of it. She knows some semi-political people who hate Menken because he's a Nazi, but she's always speaking out of self interest (she didn't want to move to Oman, now that Connor for sure is 100% losing, she likes the idea of bouncing around Europe with all their money).

Honestly, I knew lots of young people like this back in 2016. Had never voted before, were maybe vaguely left-leaning based purely on peer group attitudes, but had so little interest in politics that is was really more of a cultural association than an actual political belief. Some of them woke up enough to vote against Trump (or succumbed to the urging of others) but some didn't. Especially if you are in an economically advantaged position, it's very easy to ignore politics, which are "a bummer" to people who are very shallow and self-interested.[/quote]
