How about she uses it to help those in need?
Pretty sure that's her plan, to help other women he has assaulted come forward and have the money to sue him. At least that's what she mentioned.
Yeah, god forbid it goes to someone who is starving or to build affordable housing xD
Yeah fuck those rape victims, they’ve had it too good for too long.
The funny thing about other people money, is that it isn't your money to decide what to do with.
Oh yeah, but we can still judge them for it.
You're seriously unhappy that she would use the money to help victims of sexual assault? That's deserving of negative judgment?
Have you considered that there's more than one worthwhile cause in the world?
You're right.
It's better they get revenge instead of literally saving people's lives.
My bad.
The revenge is supporting victimized women???
"Revenge is committing a harmful action against a person or group in response to a grievance"

Yes, its harmful because she feels Donald trump would hate that she's supporting the women he's sexually assaulted or harrassed. He repeatedly defamed her by insisting he didn't sexually assault her, and so as "revenge" she's going to support his other victims with the money that used to be his... Wow, what a waste. Fuck those rape victims, amirite?
There is such a thing as more than one worthwhile cause. If you wanna argue about the fact she suggested that as one possible use for the money you can, but earnestly taking issue with the idea of using the money to support his other victims because it's not going towards the issues you're personally most invested in is insane.
Supporting rape victims as revenge against someone who has repeatedly been accused of, and now found guilty of sexual misconduct, is a perfectly just cause.
It's not insane to support saving lives over getting revenge.
These people are clearly biased.
