Both read the staff mistreatment stories and were not swayed. “I worry about the narrative of her being a woman and, 'Oh, she's too bossy,'” Nelson said “I took it with a grain of salt. I certainly hope she treats her staff well but I haven't seen anything too damning yet."by Torey Van Oot via twitter 2/10/2019 6:37:09 PM
