Donald and Eric Trump opine on sexual harassment — and draw fire; Washington Post, 8/2/16

Katie Zezima, Washington Post; Donald and Eric Trump opine on sexual harassment — and draw fire:
"In an interview with USA Today, Trump was asked what would happen if his daughter Ivanka were subjected to workplace harassment.
“I would like to think she would find another career or find another company if that was the case,” Trump said Monday evening...
Eric Trump, when asked about his father’s remarks, said sexual harassment in the workplace is an “absolute no-go” and “should be addressed and addressed strongly.” He said workplace harassment should be reported. Gretchen Carlson, the former Fox News television host whose lawsuit against Ailes in July led to other women coming forward — and his ultimate ouster — was among those who weighed in against the Trumps on Tuesday.
“Sad in 2016 we’re still victim blaming women. Trust me I’m strong. #StandWithGretchen,” Carlson wrote Tuesday morning on Twitter. She also retweeted supportive words from others, including a tweet from author Jenny Han, who wrote, “Anybody who would go up against arguably the biggest name in news media has a backbone made of steel.”"
