Harvey looks like the Vegas Murderer in that picture.

Just sayin’...

It must be considered that just about every attractive female actress who landed starring roles in his movies over the past 25 yrs probably cooperated with his “casting couch”.... there is a case of a UK actress who says she was told she had been selected for a role around 20+ yrs ago, when she was 19 yrs old... but then Harvey Weinstein took an interest in producing the film and she was told she had to “model” a bikini for him.... she declined to do so and lost the role.

So, it is plausible that few if any actresses landed a leading role around him without giving in to his game. IIRC, some of the notable actresses who starred in Harvey Weinstein produced films, generally rather early in their careers, include: Uma Thurman, Renee Zellweger, Gwyneth Paltrow, Blake Lively, Kate Winslet, Rose McGowan, and Jennifer Lawrence.

This entire thing is intresting. On the scale of evil things that go on in Holywood Weinstein is a piker. However, he’s a big-time donor to Hilly Clinton’s money machine and only Dems not controlled by Hillary are attacking him. Since the Obama’s are attacking him it’s likely that this is a battle between Hillary’s faction of the Democrat party and Obama’s faction.

One of the major reasons the Dems have been losing at the state level over the last 8 years is by Hillary’s DNC and Obama’s Organizing for America have been in competition with each other for control of the Democrat party. While the infighting hasn’t been very noticeable at the national level it’s badly drained the coffers at the local levels as rival candidates popup in every state race funded by each faction.

Obama’s operations were largely funded by US government money, specifically the payouts the justice department were handing out to leftist groups, while Hillary’s funds come from plan old bribery.

The more the Dems fight each other, the better. However, this conflict is likely to end if Hillary dies sometime soon at which point Obama will control the entire party. After reviewing the damage the Marxist did to the US military that’s not a pleasent thought.

One big aspect that strikes me in his power plays with the young actresses is the sheer wilful degradation he pushes upon the women. He could get lots of willing Hollywood and model hotties (due to his money and position) he wants or pay for whores, but obviously he gets off on the power play of making young actresses degrade themselves before him. He could have pursued and “courted” Ashley Judd or others in a respectful manner (gross as that idea may be), but he preferred to simply demean and degrade them.... force them to decide whether to accept a blatant sex-for-acting-opportunity exchange. Not even a pretense of “romance” or courtship, just “come screw me now if you want the part.”

They are saying it is equivalent, what Weinstein did and what Trump did

Sure sounds like it. Wonder if the Feds are involved. Or if the 128 arrested recently are singing.

Looking at this slovenly, unkempt individual, his sexual aggression no doubt stems from his inadequacies...his inability to find companionship and sexual satisfaction on his looks and personality, alone (of which he has neither).

Actor Daniel Day Lewis said it best: He told Harvey to his face, "the only thing that works for you is filmmaking.......you're a total disaster as a person."

Democrats who sucked up to this monster to get his support and his money, should be publicly shamed as often as possible.

The really substantial thing about the Harvey expose is that anyone associated w/ him looks bad including his vast Hollyood connections.....all of them Democrat donors and feminism worshippers. Tout Hollywood---slavishly Democrat---KNEW about Harvey's proclivities ..... and did nothing.

==================================================

(HAT TIP RayChuang88): THIS is why the entire political Left it terrified of the revelations about Harvey Weinstein. This makes many people Weinstein dealt with as either culpable or as material witnesses, and I wouldn't be surprised every national TV talk show host with Left political leanings have consulted their lawyers over this. Expect many Democratic politicians to consult with their lawyers, too.

Weinstein may have been a predator to more than just actresses. He could be the link that could blow wide-open the entire "casting couch" culture of Hollywood, including pedophilia.
