Last fall, the Republican National Committee called on its Democratic counterpart to return Harvey Weinstein’s political donations on the very same day the New York Times exposed his decades of sexual misconduct. Now, however, when it comes to Steve Wynn’s contributions, RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel is asking for due process, saying this week, “There is an investigation that’s going to take place. He should be allowed due process, and if he is found guilty of any wrongdoing, we will absolutely return 100 percent of that money.”

McDaniel argued Wynn, unlike Weinstein, denies the allegations, and should thus be afforded a thorough investigation. But even in the initial Times report Weinstein through his lawyer “denie[d] many of the accusations as patently false.”
