Doug Emhoff Appreciation Thread

I wish some of our Jewish friends would let us know whether his being described as a "crappy Jew" is widely known?

He's on track to be the first First Gentleman.

Gosh, he was a good-looking kid.

I love him on the campaign trail. And you can totally see him and Kamala still having mind-blowing sex, unlike the last two occupants of the White House.

Love him. He's an excellent partner and cheerleader for his wife while also being very smart and a great communicator in his own right. And he's still friends with his ex-wife, so you know he's a mensch.

I’m not convinced he meant crappy as an adjective, R1.

Any tea on why the first marriage ended?

The kids are very attractive.

The ex-wife speaks, which says so much. Mature people. That part of the relationship is gone, but the mutual respect, their children, and another type of love remains.

The ex-wife was on social media yesterday asking if folks would be interested in participating in a Seniors for Harris virtual event. Doug’s parents are eager to do it to support Kamala, but they don’t know how to set it up on Zoom, so she is working with them on the project.

Kirsten Emhoff didn’t remarry. Is she family?

And I love their co-parenting and overall amicable relationship.

R7: Are you blind? That girl is ugly as fuck!

R12 are YOU blind.

He looks like Steven Spielberg.

If I were dating a guy 20 years older I would leave him if he started to age and look how Dustin does at 50. Sorry not sorry.

That was meant for Theron Daley thread.

Tom* Daley

He looks like Mr Belding

News story out today that Emhoff cheated on his first wife with daughter Ella's nanny and got her pregnant. So that is probably what ended their marriage. Virile man!

And yet his ex-wife is still friends with him and supports Kamala's campaign.

Trump is a rapist of underage girls.

R19 did she keep the baby? The ex gives me Lez vibes and not a distraught Frau a La Maria Shriver.

Trump being a rapist doesn't excuse the grossness of Emhoff's behavior, if this story is true. If it is true, this story certainly puts him in a new and very unflattering light. Whether he's friends with his ex-wife now is irrelevant.

he was one hot jewboy when younger

Doug isn't running for office, and his family still loves him. Why should we care.

After the Trump era, the idea that everyone in the WH has to pass some purity test is beyond laughable.

In addition to being a rapist of underage girls, the orange shitgibbon cheated on all three of his wives.

He cheated on pregnant Melania with a porn actress and that ultimately resulted in his being convicted of 34 felony counts.

I would love to know how many of his other affairs and raped resulted in abortions.

R24: Agreed but it is going to be harder now for her to attack Trump on morals and character considering she and her husband are both cheaters.

R24. we should care because what he did gives the GOP ammunition to use against Kamala Harris' campaign. Hypocrisy has never been an issue for the GOP.

No. There is a huge world of difference between having an affair and being best friends with Jeff Epstein, complicit in human trafficking and a rapist of women and girls. And Trump has NO morals and NO character even without getting into the sex pest shit.

R26 He is her first marriage. You tried it.

Thanks, Doug

I love how how he got the nanny pregnant. That's the best. The double adultery ticket. They're both disgusting.

Didn’t Trump get a maid pregnant according to a Trump Tower doorman?

I heard a doorman say Trump cured cancer but is keeping the formula locked in a safe until the pharmaceuticals offer him a better deal.

Love him. He seems like such a supportive husband.

And he was a cutie when he was younger!

R31 read it on the internet, so it must be true.

R26 When did Kamala cheat? She dated Willie Brown 10 months after he and his wife were legally separated.

R7 Some kids are attractive, somewhere --just not those kids.

Harris: first president to have marital sex in the White House since 2016

2017, R38!

What kind of nasty woman sleeps with a married man? She's a skank.

That girl's hair and glasses don't do anything for her, but she's definitely good looking, and so is her brother.

Only here on the DL could such an unremarkable, plain and inconsequential man get so much love, over being married to Giggles McDumb, the presidential candidate imposed by the DNC because nobody would ever vote for her, and has made a fool out of herself all around the world.

[quote]How are we going to cope with a refugee crisis caused by the war in Ukraine? A friend in need is a friend in need, hee hee hee hee!

Correct R42. Donald Trump is that anyone.

[QUOTE]She dated Willie Brown 10 months after he and his wife were legally separated.

Brown and his wife separated in 1982 when Harris was a freshman at Howard on the east coast. Harris dated him in the mid-nineties.

[quote] the presidential candidate imposed by the DNC because nobody would ever vote for her

The right is going bananas. $310 million in donations since announcing, tens of thousands of voter registrations in the first couple of days, massive spike in campaign volunteers, momentum in the opinion polls, a grassroots groundswell on every side—but sure, she was imposed from above and no one will vote for her.

And sucks for them that the one piece of alleged dirt they have is “her husband cheated on his first wife, when Kamala had never met him, so vote for our guy. A man who cheated on all 3 wives, slept with porn stars when his wife was recovering from childbirth, sexually assaulted women and buried the mother of his children in a golf course. Here’s a picture of the current wife’s snatch. She received a genius visa” Hmm to quote the man himself “someone should look into that!”

I can't wait until this cackling whore loses.

That is true, R43. Since that retarded chimpanzee George W Bush won the election in 2001, American politics have become a race to the bottom - it became a den of filth and corruption after Kennedy was assassinated, but not even B-movie actor Reagan displayed as much ignorance, stupidity, unjustified vanity and immaturity as the likes of John McCain, Mitt Romney, Killary Cunton, Dump, Dementia Joe and Giggles McDumb. At least Obama is a good public orator, but all candidates since 2001 have been an embarrassment.

I know that you were expecting me to become all upset by posting that video of Dump, because imbeciles like you think that detesting the repugnant hypocrisy of Democrats is the same as loving the revolting depravity of Republicans, but no: both parties are two sides of the same coin and the fact that you cannot recognize it, is only a testament of your idiocy.

she a hoe

News flash for R48: name-calling isn't the same thing as argumentation for the "repugnant hypocrisy of Democrats."

R44 Shit, yes, I meant to say 10 years, not 10 months. And to this day he and his ex-wife are still just legally separated. I am sick to death of seeing this "Kamala had an affair with a married man!!" nonsense.

I can’t wait until you die in a grease fire R47.

R47's mother should've just finished the job with that coat hanger. Nobody would've regretted it. But, let's talk about Hispanic twink couples, R47!

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't a strategic leak by the Harris camp. They knew it was going to come out at some point, so have it happen on a Saturday in the summer rather than October. It'll barely be remembered in a month or so.

Doug has already responded. The Biden campaign vetted them 4 years ago. It's old news and has absolutely nothing to do with Kamala.

Wait until you hear about the guy who cheated on all of his wives, raped one of them, raw-dogged a porn star while his latest wife -- who won't even be seen with him in public unless he pays her the big bucks -- was recovering from the birth of his fifth child whom he hates because that kid is 6'8". And he has sexual fantasies about one of his daughters but not the less attractive daughter because standards or something like that.

r36, and she never went back.

Says everything about a strong sister.

“thepostmillenial.com”

🤣

R52 more violent rhetoric from the left.

R58 - it's now in the NY Post and the Daily Mail, too.

Isn't that some Canadian online alt right rag?

That works. Kamala grew up in Canada. On the mean streets of course.

Don't forget about Trump's alleged out-of-wedlock child - one of possibly several, one presumes. Never mind, as stated, the multiple affairs, mistresses, porn stars. Tiffany Trump was born out-of-wedlock as well, although her parents married when she was a baby.

Doug has already responded rapidly and with humility. This will be a nothing burger in a few days.

I think it's already a nothing burger outside the desperation-reeking rightwing tabloids.

Which is laughable, R65, given who their savior is and his background.

Doug had affair while with first wife.

Couldn't care less about Doug's affair during his first marriage years before he met Kamala. Don't care about Trump's affairs either, except for those women he impregnated and for whom he paid for abortions now that he's the man who caused the demise of Roe v. Wade.

[quote]Emhoff built a high-profile career as an entertainment lawyer with a case load that included defending an advertising agency in a lawsuit involving the Chihuahua that said "Yo Quiero Taco Bell" in television ads.

This I did not know.

Right wing Laura Loomer is going after Emhoff and says there's more to come. From Twitter:

This isn’t the end of my reports on @DouglasEmhoff.

I’m told by many people I know in the Los Angeles area that Emhoff allegedly has a history of additional affairs and even some accusations of sexual harassment in the Brentwood area.

Some sources are even telling me he has cheated on Kamala Harris.

If you have been sexually victimized or pressured into having an abortion by Kamala Harris’s husband, please DM me.

Laura Loomer is a freakin' nut job. She's the one who chained herself to the entrance door of Twitter's HQ (pre-Elon).

Keep throwing feces at the wall, MAGAts. Nobody cares

Thank you, Laura Loomer! There's no way I'm voting for that rat Doug Emhoff now!

I will say - not trying to be overly negative, just realistic - that if there's fire where there's smoke here, and Doug has a history of prior affairs or pressuring women, it will take a bit of the euphoric sheen off of Harris's current upward trajectory.

Even though he's not the candidate, you want to see her have a chosen mate/partner with good qualities, including loyalty and ethics. Yes, I know these never applied to Melania or other 1st Ladies, but Dems (esp Harris) will be held to a higher standard. Not fair, just is.

I'll give it to R74, at least his concern trolling has been given some polish.

Did you vote for Hillary Clinton, R74? Just curious.

And want to add, I find it odd that the Mail has placed this story so low down its front page for most of today. You'd think it would be their screaming headline on their US front page, given how much they like Trump and lean rightward...this is being handled curiously conservatively and cautiously by the UK tabs.

The Harris campaign has already come out and stated this was known to them, and to the Biden faction back in 2020. I'm wondering if they know the Dems/Harris campaign has hard facts on some unknown similar Trump scandal, such an another child, etc. so they are playing it safer than usual here. This is bound to be a dirty, nasty campaign no matter what.

Not concern trolling r75, just speculating and serving my observations. Yes of COURSE I voted for Hillary r76, why asking? I'm speculating on something that could cause mild negative blowback on the Harris campaign, if there is more out there about Doug's past sexual behavior that comes out. The Dems aren't MAGAts, their platform is solidly about respect for women and if the spouse of their female head candidate has an unsavory past there, that could factor into the swing vote.

I think Doug might have molested me at some point.

Went to the same high school as this dude.

Adding to R79 But not Agoura. Cedar Ridge (now Old Bridge High School).

Doug needs to be canceled. Having an affair with an employee. Disgusting.

[quote]if there is more out there about Doug's past sexual behavior that comes out.

You seem very confident that this is the case, and extremely worried about it, and very insistent on raising your concerns for which there's not much basis. Why?

I seriously doubt he's stepping out on Kamala, he seems genuinely smitten with her.

This seems like another misjudgement on their part. Making a woman responsible for the actions of a man is not going to fly today on the national stage. Making her responsible for the actions of a man she had never met is going to backfire and make her more relatable to women.

Yes it's small potatoes compared to what Dump has done, but it does take away Kamala's moral high ground because this will get thrown in her face by the Repugs

How does it take away Kamala's high ground? She wasn't the one shtupping the kid's teacher while married; it was her husband, years before they met.

Let's not compare Doug to the perfect, Michelle, let's compare Doug to the actual, Melania.

I have never seen Doug Emhoff's titties.

Woof that nanny is looking ruff now

What nanny, R88?

It's high time we start pushing back on the media to tell us why some of this BS is news - what does this contribute to ANYTHING? If it was Kamala herself, or if he cheated WITH Kamala then the moral highground convo makes sense - it's NOT. If he cheated ON Kamala, family dysfunction, comparable to Orangina - but it WASN'T. If the wife or the other woman had some relevance or wanted to settle a score, still irrelevant, but fine - but they DON'T. This isn't even criminal or remotely interesting to public affairs like Hunter's BS. Doug, Kerstin, the side hoe, nor any other side hoes that may pop up aren't running for President.

What effect does this even have on anything important? Why is time being spent on some janky Page Six/TMZ-level gossip from the 90's or 00's? Do they WANT us to remind everyone of the Slovenian Hooker's plagiarism, nonchalance, and other wonderful traits? And that tbh is also irrelevant. IT'S NOT NEWS. WE DON'T CARE.

Back to appreciating our first First Gentleman...

indeed, they look like they at the very least like each other and get along with each other.

The Russian bots and trolls are trying their darnedest to push this but it's landing with a thud. Normals don't care, but they do care that Trump is an elderly convicted felon and rapist that should not be anywhere near the levers of power.

Fire Island Queens for Emhoff

[quote]You seem very confident that this is the case, and extremely worried about it, and very insistent on raising your concerns for which there's not much basis. Why?

Use of the word "if" doesn't imply confidence about any further revelations, it implies the hypothetical. Nor was I (the poster) "extremely worried" or insistent, this is (check out the title) a Doug Emhoff thread so is the appropriate place to post the story and speculate on it. As for basis, he's already admitted to the affair. There is no 'why', I've posted 1000s of times here in support of Biden/Harris and Dem causes (check trolldar), I came to discuss and you don't need to see bots behind every deliberative post.

My main goal was to post about how the right-leaning tabloid media was covering this story. They are strangely lowkey. The Trump campaign is oddly silent so far as well, which led me to -speculate- that there's something worse out there about Trump, that he wants kept under wraps (ie, another child).

Doug and his parents join "Seniors for Harris"

In the US our choice is now always a centrist vs. a right winger.

I see a resemblance between young Doug and Ella.

Douglas Emhoff, the possible first gentleman of the White House

Kamala Harris’ husband has used the high-profile position to fight antisemitism and toxic masculinity. ‘I’m her partner, I’m her best friend and I’m her husband. And that’s what I’m here for. I’m here to have her back,’ he says

Like Melania, I want to see his TITS!

Gwen Walz is adorable. She looks like a woman who was completely taken by surprise by all of this. She looks a little nervous, eager to please and not fuck up. She is that nice teacher thrown onto the international stage.

Her little speech and her interaction with Doug in PA last night was sweet. Compare them to Usha Vance and the Verst Leddy, the neurotic doormat and the icy whore.

[quote] The Second Gentleman is having too much fun at this walk-thru marching to his own beat. 😂

Great speech from Doug today on reproductive rights. He is a rock star!

Damn, you people are pathetic.

Cute that he's a grunge rock and fantasy football guy. Him and Tim seem to be real pals. And I love that they're kind of an odd couple. Not because they're interracial - but he seems like such a goofball compared to her.

right, I suppose being in entertainment, yet not an actor means he always keeps his silly side hidden

I can't wait to see how he'll decorate the White House for Christmas (assuming Kamala wins)

The guy's been the husband of the VP for almost 4 years and none of you gave a shit about him until now.

I can't wait to see his Inaugural Ball gown!

R108 We never got to know him until the DNC. Plus his son, Cole, is so damn handsome.

R109 Designed by Ella, no doubt.

He went to a record store in Philly with Gavin Newsom and bought albums by the Stone Roses and New Order. He is my spirit animal!

[quote] Him and Tim seem to be real pals.

I picture the 2 of them in a hot tub together drinking beer.

I totally want to hang out with those guys.

R110 Then you were not paying attention. He (and Cole) were all over the place in 2020. The whole family (everyone at the DNC this year) appeared in 2020 on countless YT videos and print interviews. They said the same lines back then. Cole was working in the mail room of William Morris at the time. He was interviewed in his apartment. He spoke about music and his fantasy draft and the best coffee spots in LA. The whole family did a Sunday dinner zoom. Doug’s parents and wife were in attendance. I get that Biden was the star of 2020 and this stuff was not the prime time focus but it’s all still out there. My first reaction after the DNC was “well they won’t find any inconsistencies to start a silly scandal on Faux News, everyone from 2020 is back so no rifts, the same lines, the same stories about working at McD’s, even the auntie from India has flown over again”

So sad that everyone is bashing his daughter.

and who is this homophobic Valentina Gomez bitch (in the comments) running for congress? What a cunt.
