Controversial Cain



Herman Cain in this video discusses how he never sexually harassed anyone. It believes these fabrications to be “baffling”.

As Herman Cain is campaigning startling news come out about him during his time working for The National Restaurant Association. Three women who were his co-workers are accusing Herman Cain of sexual harassment. The woman stated that they were uncomfortable with him in the workplace. During the 1990s many of Herman Cain’s female workers complained to superiors about his sexual nature and aggressive tone. One of them truly wants to speak out but is currently bound by confidentiality with The National Restaurant Association. With her lawyer she is trying to end these restrictions, as she no longer works there. In time thorough details of these cases will probably be released and examined. The woman are said to have received 5 figure settlements after filing their complaints and left the company thereafter.

Herman Cain denies that as the head of The National Restaurant Association he did not sexually harass anyone and that the accusations simply represent unfair attacks towards him. He says these personal attacks are “unsubstantiated” and simply rumors that don’t hold to facts.

Herman Cain supporters seem to be standing by him and stating that this is a baseless stories probably brought about by Liberals and being sustained by bad journalism. Others are stating that this is undeniable, as three women have stepped out claiming sexual harassment.


In this video Herman Cain admits of being accused but not being aware of a settlement after. He briefly states that while working at The National Restaurant Association he was falsely accused of sexual harassment but nothing was done because of the “baseless” accusation. He says that people have “attested to his character and integrity” as he was innocent and is and was falsely accused. He calls this a “cloud” that is put over his campaign but ensures everyone that the truth will come out and he will prevail.

The video below is of John Stewart poking fun of Herman Cain and the position he currently finds himself in. This was not taken lightly by Donald Trump.




Donald Trump’s Response below


Donald Trump who was poked at for possibly running as a candidate supports The GOP and disgraces Jon Stewarts work. Some say that this video is over-the top as Jon Stewart is a comedian who has a political show on Comedy Central. It is expected for Stewart to attack political figures and no one has missed his comedic spotlight. Donald Trump states that this is truly a “racist rant” yet in fact he has had trouble with racism in the past. In essence Trump is right that if anyone else did this it would be a disaster because they aren’t the ones with a very open comedy Central show that makes fun of politics and other aspects of political or social media. Nothing has truly changed in Jon Stewarts show only new people to make fun of.

Herman Cain’s story is startling up a lot of drama and conclusions. The mystery still remains if these allegations are true but only time will tell. In the link below Herman Cain still remains on top in the national poll. This scandal has not hurt him but rather gained him for fame and awareness.
