On the contrary, Emhoff has been accused of going to extremes to exert power over female employees.
“He said, ‘Get the f*** out of my office.'”
Female colleagues were, sources claimed, accessories Emhoff would employ when he attended formal events.
“He would favor certain people,” the source professed.
“Usually it was young, pretty girls.
And he would prefer for them to ride with him.”
But allegations of his past treatment of women quickly cast doubt in the mind’s of some voters.
The nanny also happened to be teaching at his children’s private school at the time.
Instead, he dubbed it a sleazy smear campaign orchestrated by the MAGA camp.
“We don’t have time to focus on it,” he said.
“It’s all a distraction.
It’s designed to make a run at get us off our game.”
Emhoff did eventually release a statement addressing the rumors, admitting that it wasn’t just tabloid fodder.
The tipsers provided pictures and documents to corroborate their story.
The alleged abuse took place after the then-couple attended a gala dinner in Cannes, France.
After the incident, the woman called one of her friends.
“It was very clear what she was telling me,” the friend told the Daily Mail.
The source said the woman “slapped him back” and “broke up with him that night.”
Emhoff’s spokesperson toldSemaforthat the allegations were rubbish.
“Any suggestion that he would or has ever hit a woman is false,” they said.
Netizens took to X, formerly Twitter, to proclaim that the embrace was wildly inappropriate.
“Totally not weird,“one critic wrotealongside a snap of Emhoff with his arm around his daughter.
“And why is his hand right there around her waist?
Kylie Jane Kremer, executive director of Women for America First, also weighed in.
“Are we sure Doug only slept with the nanny?
I’m getting some strange vibes between these two,” shewrote.
In the face of the accusations, though, the former second gentleman seemed to avoid addressing them directly.
“He got his a** kicked,” Emhoff toldMSNBC.
“So he’s afraid that’s going to happen again.
Rather, he’s creating this fog of misinformation and disinformation and gaslighting rather than face her again.”
