Misogyny is misogyny regardless of whether it is directed at liberal women or conservative women. Let's not go there.

Let me see -- haven't we seen over and over again that the most conservative, male, "family-values" politicians are the ones who get found out having, or having had, sexual affairs with underage boys?

Even just bringing this up is misogynistic. The time to attack the Republicans for this is when they turn around and criticize a liberal woman again. Then, you can say, "It was OK when Ivanka did it." But bringing this up now is effectively attacking a woman by telling her that her place is in her home, taking care of her children.

A better way to attack Ivanka and Jared is to point out, as the Germans did recently, that they are prime examples of nepotism, which is not something the United States government should be practicing.
