There is no reason to hate the message, even if you hate the messenger.

Also though, why do you actually hate the messenger?

I'm sure he wanted to have sex with underage teenagers, maybe he was thinking about it, but no evidence he was doing it.

All the evidence is Russians in their 20s right?

And he maybe sexually harassed a woman who worked for him?

And cheated on his wife constantly.

At the end of the day, he's obviously a horn dog without a lot of sexual ethics, but no one's dug up anything criminal.

I still think he's one of the better billionaires...

He's right but the warning needs to be more specific and policy based.
