tRump may be the most anti-women US President ever - CNN

Donald Trump wants you to believe he has "great respect" for women, but his words and actions tell a far different story. In fact, Trump may be the most anti-women US president ever.

Case in point: On Friday, tRump defended his former aide Rob Porter after news broke of allegations that Porter had been physically abusive to his two ex-wives, Colbie Holderness and Jennifer Willoughby.
<snip>

"Peoples lives are being shattered and destroyed by a mere allegation. Some are true and some are false. Some are old and some are new. There is no recovery for someone falsely accused - life and career are gone. Is there no such thing any longer as Due Process?" (Speaking of due process, White House counsel knew of the allegations about Porter in January 2017, according to The Washington Post; did the tRump administration even investigate the claims over the past year?)

But this is nothing new for tRump. He has a long history of standing shoulder to shoulder with the men who have behaved inappropriately. - CNN

I hope tRumpster women don't become suicidal here soon when this finally sinks in. They are complicit in turning back the clock on women's suffrage. They basically are supporting Taliban tRump against their own gender, including themselves.

He was on Stephanie Miller's show this morning talking about it. He wasn't mincing words. He's just glad they took the meat of the story as is.

Just like they shrugged off the pussy grabbing episode. If that didn't convince them of his attitude toward women, then this sure won't.

is cratering, down from ~52% to 31% and his negatives overall are above 50%. But I hear you. What is it going to take before these women "women" haters figure this stuff out, that they too are women and tRump has no regard for them too.

They really aren't all that great, though, are they? Fully one third of women continue to support him. That, to me, is just amazing. I think the implication is that these women have a low opinion of themselves and women in general. Whether that is down to something that happened to them (abuse) or brainwashing by the RW media is anyone's guess.
