Trump’s Anti-Woman Problem, Continued
August 29, 2016
While Donald Trump’s campaign is already under fire for Trump’s history of making sexist comments—it has come to light that his campaign CEO once attacked students of historic women’s colleges as a “bunch of dykes.”
“Steve Bannon’s sexist comments are just the latest sorry example of the Trump campaign’s disrespect toward women. From calling women ‘fat pigs’ and ‘slobs,’ to saying you should treat women ‘like sh*t,’ Trump’s degrading language is just one reason he is temperamentally unfit to be president of the United States. It’s not just his words – Trump opposes equal pay for women, opposes paid family leave, wants to defund Planned Parenthood, and thinks that there has to be ‘some form of punishment’ for women who have abortions. The American people need a president who will fight for all Americans—not someone who denigrates women and seeks advice from someone that uses sexist and anti-gay slurs.” – DNC Spokeswoman Rachel Palermo
