Social media backlash is RUTHLESS when Dem at center of adult video controversy tries to play the victim

September 13, 2023 | | Print Article

Virginia Democrat Susanna Gibson’s defense of her viral infamy proved the leftist “disconnect between actions and consequences.”

Since The Washington Post first reported that the 40-year-old nurse practitioner and mother of two running for the Virginia House of Delegates had live-streamed sex acts with her husband for “tips” from viewers, Gibson had taken the position, (no pun intended), of victim.

Corporate media’s ever-friendly reporting on Democrats appeared at least willing to skew toward her defense and, in some cases, even attempted to shame those who would find any issue with a potential public official conducting themselves like the Gibsons.

In her own reaction to reports, the candidate had said, “It won’t intimidate me and it won’t silence me. My political opponents and their Republican allies have proven they’re willing to commit a sex crime to attack me and my family because there’s no line they won’t cross to silence women when they speak up.”

“My opponent and his allies know that the people of this district are on our side on the issues, so they’re stooping to the worst gutter politics,” her statement to the press added. “There’s too much at stake in this election and I’ll never stop fighting for our community.”

As had been reported, her Republican opponent appeared to make no move to capitalize on the story that included her admission to having an open marriage, and instead, David Owen’s statement read in part, “I’m sure this is a difficult time for Susanna and her family, and I’m remaining focused on my campaign.”

However, social media was far less sympathetic to the candidate who had quite literally f-d around and found out.

The Daily Wire’s Ben Shapiro had bluntly commented while sharing CNN’s report, “I’m sorry ur publicly posted porn videos are happening to u.”

Others reacted in kind, staying in line with the theme that Gibson appeared ill-prepared to reconcile that actions have consequences while some mused that she may, in fact, be the “First politician in US history to get in trouble for having sex with their actual spouse.”

Meanwhile, a piece from Politico titled “So What if a Candidate Livestreamed Sex Acts with Her Husband?” appeared to rally behind the candidate and admitted the claims from Gibson were likely bunk meant more to “help keep her campaign alive.”

“What Gibson and her lawyer lack in legal acumen, they make up for in moxie. When you livestream sex acts on a site where you have 5,700 followers and it doesn’t require a password, can you convince a judge and jury that your expectations of privacy have been violated?” the post argued.

Conservative radio host Andrew Wilkow knocked the take from the outlet and pointed out, “Nobody is stopping anyone living in the VA-57th district from voting for Susanna Gibson. However, from her own statements on marriage and monogamy many….many men have already ‘voted’ for her.”
