RE: Ernst's and Collins' refusal to meet with Hegseth's accuser

No surprise or mystery here. Fully self-aware that they as women themselves are only too willing to be a tool in service to a known serial sexual abuser and adjudicated rapist, neither have the metaphorical balls to stand face to face with another abuser's victim and look her in the eye. Which in the case of Collins can perhaps be partially attributed to disconnected-from-the-real-world ignorance and stupidity.

But, as a victim of sexual assault herself, in Ernst's case it's hard for me not to see it as no more than plain cowardice in the face of having to ultimately see *herself* in the face of another victim of sexual assault and then having to deny the reality of it in order to serve the interests of the misogynistic lout that's going to screw us all.

I'd say shame on both of these women. But it's obvious that neither of them has any.
