Dana Nessel
Democrat Dana Nessel was running for Michigan Attorney General. Her approach focused on the problem plaguing Capitol Hill and the Country at large.
“Who can you trust most not to show you their penis in a professional setting?,” Nessel asked. This question was part of her campaign ad.
“Is it the candidate who doesn’t have a penis? I’d so say,” she said referring to herself.
Nessel added: “I’m constantly hearing, “Well, I like you, I like your candidacy, I like things that you say. But we can’t have an all-female ticket,” she said.
“And my response is always the same: Why?”
She said “I will not sexually harass my staff. And I won’t tolerate it in your workplace either. I won’t walk around in a half-open bathrobe.”
“I think the ad was rather tame when it comes to the news stories that have come out whether they are journalists, whether they’re in Hollywood, or whether they’re political representatives,” she said. “We’ve heard some pretty lewd stories coming out.”
Nessel wasn’t the only person who used sexual allegations as a tool. Democrat Doug Jones used ads of a similar nature against Roy Moore.
