The sex therapist behind HBO’s “Radio Sex TV with Dr. Susan Block” says President Trump is ruining American sex lives despite popularity with “ammosexuals” and many men.
Susan Block, also known as “Dr. Suzy,” told the left-wing magazine Salon this week that Mr. Trump is responsible for a “Post-Trump Sex Disorder” across the U.S. She claims the Republican is negatively affecting intimacy by instilling “feelings of fear, loathing, and nausea” within the population.
“People just don’t want to have sex,” she said for an interview published Wednesday evening. “This would mainly be seen with women who are just appalled at how creepy Trump is. He takes what is often a positive male attribute of confidence and pushes it way over the line into a rape-like and rape-entitled kind of arrogance.”
“Never mind how this moment with Donald Trump is also reflected by many men who are dysfunctional and chronically frustrated and who don’t know how to properly approach women and the lethally unhinged ’incels,’” she continued. “We also cannot forget all of the ’ammosexuals’ who substitute their favorite guns for a working penis.”
The therapist also alleged that men are attracted to the commander in chief’s “bad boy” and “evil daddy” reputation.
“Donald Trump is the daddy of a dysfunctional United States family,” she said. “And of course evil can be very sexy. Evil is fascinating.”
Scott Whitlock of the media watchdog NewsBusters responded by noting how the topic was treated when Democrats controlled the White House. He cited pieces by The New York Times and Time magazine with an optimistic take on the issue.
“Perhaps good sex will simply have to wait for liberal journalists … until the next Democratic president turns them on,” he deadpanned.
