Motley:  I see an interesting parallel to Flake, Corker and McCain.  It's always easier to take a "principled" stand when you're not going to "pay the price" for doing so.  None of the three are running for re-election so criticizing Trump is easier. 

 Anita Hill is a good example.  Had she spoken up at the time of Clarence Thomas's alleged harassment, she would not have had the benefits of being one of his "favorite" employees.  The same can be said of those accusing Harvey Weinstein.  Indeed, victims of sexual abuse and harassment often do "profit" from tolerating the abuse and harassment.  I ask the very real and, IMO, important question,  does that make it any less abusive or harassing?  ....I'd like to hear from you and, especially, Outsider77 on this question..  regards, Gary crum
