Emmhoff knocks up the Nanny, has her sign a NDA, and slaps his girlfriend, but:
The Washington Post’s Catherine Rampell wrote one of the most embarrassing columns of the cycle in late August, declaring Emhoff a “modern-day sex symbol” and opening with lines I cringe merely to reprint: “Move over, Ryan Gosling. The modern female fantasy is embodied by the man who might soon become our first First Gentleman. Emhoff appears to be a genuine mensch with an impressive career.” A Guardian columnist wrote of Emhoff, “God knows we need an antidote for all lousy men in the news — and I think we’ve found one.” The persistently ridiculous Jill Filipovic practically wept tears of joy as she celebrated Emhoff as “the final manifestation of what equal partnership means” and “a successful, ambitious man who is a great father—and who centers and backs his wife without hesitation.”
Historic! Flawless! (but then, why did she get her ass kicked?)
let’s turn to MSNBC commentator Joy Reid for a moment and empathize with her perplexity at how Kamala Harris lost the 2024 race: “This campaign really was an historic, flawlessly run campaign. She had — Queen Latifah never endorses anyone, and she came out and endorsed her! She had every prominent celebrity voice! She had the Swifties! She had the BeyHive! You could not have run a better campaign.”
There goes Kevin's love object!
