Girls! Girls! Girls!
Donald Trump ventured into the world of sugar and spice and all things nice yesterday and was seemingly shocked that women are actually allowed to be educated and read books and stuff.
Around we’ve had leaders like Susan B. Anthony. Have you heard of Susan B. Anthony? I’m shocked that you’ve heard of her — who dreamed of a much more fair and equal future and an America where women themselves as she said helped to make laws and elect the lawmakers, and that’s what’s happening more and more.”
And he wasn’t been sardonic. He’s shocked that someone snitched to us hooter toters that Susan B Anthony is like a real person.
And there was this:
“My cabinet is full of really incredible women leaders,” Trump told the room.
Yep. There ya go – four out of twenty are female, which is kinda full on the Less Than Half Empty scale. Hell, that’s just barely more women than he has married.
He has the whitest male staff since Ronald Reagan and that’s the truth. That’s because Vladimir doesn’t know many women.
Yes, Donald, we have heard of her, as most of us learned history in school – as you apparently did not. That’s why the rest of us knew that Frederick Douglass was dead.
1I guess Trump feels that a “woman leader” is a white male leading his wife/daughter, and not a woman actually leading.
2@ RepubAnon:
Nah. He’s got “woman leader” mixed up with “woman leaver.” As in – when he gets out of the car and walks away leaving Melania to scramble out on her own and walk 3 feet behind him — which is her “proper place” don’tcha know. So, I guess we’re both right — he leaves her then **ahem** “leads” her – if walking-ahead-of can count as “leading.”
No wonder she chooses to remain in NY.
And as to his being shocked that we’d heard of Susan — just another case of projection: HE had never heard of her [till he received his briefing-on-women yesterday] so, of course, neither had we.
Wrong again, Tweety. But then we knew that already.
3Yeah, his cabinet is as full of women as Mitt Romney’s binders were.
4Traitor Trump dose what a lot of impotent old men, with young good looking wives do. Stay away from home and plays a lot of golf.
5The Drumpfs, a poor facsimile of a family in which an adult daughter doesn’t think it’s odd that Daddy would think about dating her, neither wife #3 or the mother of the child are not concerned, while the two ‘manly’ brothers are out shopping for bigger and better ways to shoot an innocent animal without chipping a fingernail.
Forget the “free Messy” petitions. She appears to be complicit, too. Maybe it isn’t too late to rescue Barron as he is only 10.
6Surprise, surprise, Trump is an uneducated, misogynistic thug.
7Who knew? EVERYONE with a brain.
Gee, we even have dollar coins with her face on them. Guess he’s never dirtied his tiny little hands with actual money, especially with amounts that small.
8The quarter-size Susan B. Anthony dollar never really caught on … most folks hated them! They just never worked!!
There are a lot of women who have been extremely powerful in their own fields of endeavor … Trump will be shocked if he ever learns who they might be! LOL Susan B. is only one of sooooo many!!!
9Jane & PKM, it’s worse than Trump saying he would date his daughter. Someone had a video of Obama and Trump, separately, talking about their daughters. Obama praised his girls for being smart and kind and thoughtful. Trump said that his girl had nice legs, “but we don’t know about the… up here yet,” he said, waving his hands in front of his chest. Ivanka was an infant at the time. Yes, he was speculating about his infant daughter’s future breasts. He is one sick ****.
I’m sure that at least once he has said that “Nobody respects women more than I do.” Lightning should strike him. Twice. Come back and fry the little briquettes it didn’t get the first time.
10Wow! Wonder what traitor trump would think of Grace Hopper. Nay, he’d never believe that a woman could work on and basically invent COBOL, one of the first computer languages.
11Rastybob, I don’t disagree, but it is also possible that Melania is choosing to stay away. I mean, why on earth wouldn’t she?
12The way I see it. LynnN– is— He married her for her looks. And she married him so she would never be hungry or cold again. They both got what they wanted. In my own marriage my wife was very successful long before we got together. I would tease her that I married her for her money and she married me out of lust. I am now 80 so you know who got the best of the deal.
13Oh Rhea, that Orange Whore quote is disgusting. You’re right, ” He is one sick ****.” Eeuuuwwwww.
14I did watch this clip, since it was short enough to tolerate. And since DT was reading off a TelePrompter, and sticking to the script for a change, he didn’t say anything outrageous. The Susan B. Anthony line was clearly delivered as a joke, so we can’t bash him on that. (At least ne wasn’t at a black university, Whitesplaining George Washington Carver.) His efforts were met with what I’d characterize as polite laughter and applause.
Anyway, I don’t think we can fault him too badly on this one. And we shouldn’t be overly critical or mean-spirited about it, because then his defenders can rightly criticize us. There are so many other thing to legitimately criticize, so let’s not fall into that trap.
15Has anyone else noticed how red Bannon’s nose is in that photo? How many lines did he snort just prior to stepping in front of the camera?
