Objectively, it was likely nothing more than what we would call “getting fresh” back in the increasingly “old days”. But when you set yourself up as a holier than thou “feminist”, you deserve to get hoist on your own petard.
Creston is a small town where a large percentage of the town’s population would likely turn out for something involving celebrities, it might have been tacked onto something else going on there. So this would have been different from a voluntary gathering of like-minded liberals (in British Columbia, almost everyone is fairly liberal anyway, the term leftist here means university communist waving a red flag sort of leftist).
Justin Trudeau has always been superficially popular with the ladies in Canada but nothing like his more adventurous papa (or was he?) ... so one could imagine a sort of star-struck encounter with the young globe-trotter taking momentary advantage. Maybe it replayed as groping in the memory after a day or two.
Probably something fairly mundane like the hand lingering a bit long where it should not have been. At some point we are going to find almost the entire history of western civilization criminalized, I don’t know that I want to go down this path just to get a chance to make life tough for Justin, but it is a sore temptation.
Amen!
