There is a common thread with Trump's cabinet of horrors: many of them have either been accused of sexual assault or enabling it.
Matt Gaetz, who finally withdrew his nomination for Attorney General, faced an ethics investigation for sex trafficking a 17-year-old. Trump's pick to the lead the Department of Defense, Pete Hegseth, confirmed that he paid a woman who accused him of sexual assault in order to prevent her from filing suit. A former babysitter for RFK Jr.'s kids claimed he groped her when she worked as a live-in nanny for his family. Trump's nominee to lead the Department of Education, Linda McMahon, was sued for knowingly enabling the sexual abuse of children during her time at WWE.
And of course, Donald Trump himself was found liable for rape in a civil court.
This is not a cabinet our kids can look up to, and we must look for better role models to lead us in these difficult times.
Thank you,
