Komentatori u medijima, zajedno s novinarima, užurbano su stali u obranu porno zvijezde Stormy Daniels i optužili Rudy Giulianija zbog licemjerja nakon njegovih komentara u četvrtak. Trumpov odvjetnik rekao je na tiskovnoj konferenciji u Izraelu da ne vjeruje u kredibilitet Stormy Daniels, komentirajući da više respektira “žene od karijera” nego pornografske zvijezde.

Mnogi su odmah napali Giulianija, neki od njih potkopavajući njegovu vjerodostojnost, dok su se drugi odlučili na više osobne napade.
Giuliani’s stupid, condescending attack on Stormy as a “woman who sells her body for sexual exploitation”, only serves to highlight the hypocrisy of defending Trump, who had affairs & paid several such women & whose wife & ex-wife got paid for posing nude. Not a good look, Rudy.

not to be rude to rudy giuliani but marrying your own cousin is way grosser than acting in porn

"I don't respect a porn star the way I respect a career woman."
Rudy Giuliani respects career women so much he's divorced 3 of them.
While married to the 2nd career woman, he had a public affair with another respectable career woman who he was paying on City Hall payroll.

Stormy Daniels doing porn is far more trustworthy and honest than anything Giuliani has ever done https://t.co/49bwbuoO1I

From a man who divorced one of his three wives on live television: “I’m sorry I don’t respect a porn star the way I respect a career woman or a woman of substance or a woman who has great respect for herself," said the slimeball former NYC mayor. https://t.co/JkN2CMQAYa

U CNN-ovoj “New Day” emisiji, voditeljica Alisyn Camerota i njezina gošća Kirsten Power također su pronašle licemjerje u Giulianiovoj izjavi.
Alisyn Camerota: "I'm sure that many people feel the way Rudy Giuliani does" about porn stars like Stormy Daniels not having credibility. What about men who have sex with porn stars? "Do they have credibility?"@KirstenPowers: The "women are the ones that are demonized" pic.twitter.com/9eP6JvtWf6

Mika Brzezinski nazvala je komentare “odvratnima koliko god to mogu biti” i “najgore što se može reći… u ovom #MeToo dobu” na “Morning Joe”.

NBC-eva Megyn Kelly podsjetila je Giulianija da je Melania Trump također pozirala gola fotografima.

A producent “Ellen Show” Andy Lassner objavio je gole fotografije Melanie na svom Twitter računu kako bi napravio poantu, komentirajući: “Kad Rudy Giuliani uvrijedi izbor karijere @stormydaniels, on vrijeđa čak i #bebest (Melanijin projekt za djecu – op. a.) od nas.”
Giuliani je pojasnio svoje komentare još intenzivnijom izjavom, rekavši da svaka feministica koja podržava porno industriju “mora predati svoju akreditaciju”.
“If you’re a feminist and you support the porn industry you should turn in your credentials”- Rudy Giuliani to me re: push back on his comments that being in porn makes Stormy Daniela lack credibility.

Kao što je Mark Steyn komentirao na Tucker Carlson Tonight:
“… s jedne strane imate izbor za Miss Amerike koje je donijelo odluku o ukidanju natjecanja u kupaćim kostimima iz razloga što ponižava žene… znači ne možemo imati natjecanje u kupaćim kostimima, ali ako skinemo kupaće kostime i imamo seks sa 37 različitih muškaraca pred kamerama u jednom filmu, ljudi će vas uzdizati u nebesa…”
