I will say it again.... he wasn't saying she needed to be chaperoned. He was not seeking someone to supervise HER. He wanted another person there for HIS sake. To protect HIS reputation.

You people are totally unhinged.

At first I thought you were being facetious, but sadly I see you’re serious. That you still believe there aren’t women who do exactly that - make frivolous claims - means you’re part of the problem. I don’t blame him one bit. That’s what happens when women see a #metoo moment around every corner.
-a woman


No one would voluntarily put themselves through it unless it was real. Who was the last one to credibly be frivolous?


LOL.

There are far more Epsteins out there than false accusations. Law enforcement doesn’t take ANY action against sexual assault


Nobody is disputing this.
How would YOU like to be a victim of false allegations? It just takes one.
And, yes, law enforcement DOES take action. WTH are you talking about?

I really think the guy is a rapist to be if he can’t be trusted alone with a woman without trying to have sexual with her.

He didn't refuse her access. He told her that a male colleague would need to be present. Nothing at all wrong with that.

In this #MeToo era, one just cannot be too careful. Good for him.

Oh really, just an allegation? Donald is still in the White House with a couple dozen credible allegations, so...

Also, why do you want a compulsory Christian nation? Why are you bent on enforcing biblical baloney rather than expecting men not to rape? That’s what you’re saying, isn’t it? Men can’t be trusted so women should be chaperoned as they had to be in biblical days?


Oh, FFS.
"Compulsory Christian nation?" Who the hell said anything about that.
Let me clarify for you what I am saying.............

He did not want to give any appearance of impropriety. He did not want to have to defend himself against false allegations from his competition. He did not want to have to defend himself from rumors that might be started. It is THAT simple.

You are unhinged.


Pence, Pompeo, most of the Evangelicals who are bending the judiciary to their agenda. Are you not paying attention?


Give it up.
We are talking about the decision of a candidate here. Nobody said anything about "Christian nation."

A guy who requires women to be chaperoned is a religious nutbag, full stop.


Nobody is requiring a woman to be chaperoned.

Read the OP, clown.


He is not requiring the woman to be chaperoned.

Curious, did you just throw that line out there without reading the article the OP of this thread posted? Do you have reading comprehension issues, or do you just jump on a partisan bandwagon for sport?

I was a resource teacher who worked with students one on one.
I was cautioned by the administration to never close the classroom door when I had a student with me so no false allegations could be made by students.
Yeah, this happens too.

I don't blame the guy.



There is a difference between not closing a door (or having a door with a window, which is what most schools do) and requiring a female professional have a male chaperone as if she were a burka wearing teenager in Kabul.
