    I like how she asked not to be filmed and they filmed her anyway and then released it.

    It really shows how much they care about a woman’s consent.

      Could be even more sinister than that. Like if you think about it, why would they want to show that? It doesn’t show anything positive about his campaign or engagement, so releasing that footage won’t help him directly. But he is aware of how aggressive some of Trump’s supporters can be with people they hate. So I wonder if he decided to post that part of the video specifically to trigger the MAGAs that would harass (or worse) the business and/or employees.

      I don’t know what the situation in the states is, but wouldn’t she be allowed to sue him for this, because they disrespected their privacy?

        She should. It’s a “public” place, but it’s not like she chose to be there at that moment because she knew Vance was going to be there. She has no other choice than to be there, per the terms of her contract.

      I don’t need consent from my TV in order to watch it.

        Are you comparing a living breathing woman who’s doing her job to your TV? Like, you do know you need consent to film in a private establishment, right?

          I dropped the /s
          The point being they consider women to be objects so why would they care about her consent?

            Fair enough. I could definitely see a right wing fascist leaving that exact comment. It was very Matt Walshy. xD
