It's hard not to defend yourself, I know. But I think it might be good to start turning the conversation to how WEIRD he's being--

"Boy, is he obsessed or what? This is unhinged behavior even for him. You'd think his family would notice and get him some help."

"It's always sad to see someone start panicking like he's doing, seeing threats, getting scared, getting hostile. I wish his wife and children would get him to a gerontologist. It's the only kind way to deal with this onset."

Go for the sad sympathy, and bring up his disgraceful and negligent family.

He's intimidated by her. The four congresswomen he is going after are brand new to the Congress, so he believes he can beat them up to rile up his base & get little to no payback for it.

i think he'd be quite happy if he did. he's a terrorist along with all his other faults, foibles, pathologies, and corruption.

i still shake my head. how can this thing be president?

That is why he stalked Hillary all over the debate stage. He likes his woman/girls docile where he can keep his thumb on them. He calls them names like a two year old. He is a sexist piece of filth, a sexual predator and he fears what will come out when Epstein starts talking. He is more afraid of Epstein than Mueller. Though they run a close race.

This is to all women, we are not just four.

Crosby Still and Nash said it here:

They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other

There are very few strong men in the republican party. They are all paper tigers who would wet their pants if they actually had to go head to head with one of these women in a public forum.

My last immigrant ancestor to the U.S.A. was a mail order bride to Salt Lake City.

She didn't like sharing a husband so she captured a young monogamous Army surveyor who was passing through town and established her homestead elsewhere. Damn right it was all hers.

My own great grandmas were all hard women of the North American Wild West.

My wife's great grandmas were even harder.

Our ancestors were strong women who survived shit that would have killed any typical Trump deplorable.

That's what they are afraid of.

When will men ever learn? When will they ever learn that we are their equal, if not their better.

Kudos to you and your ancestors.

Do you have any insight? Those men have daughters, what world do they want for them.

Gotta say, they do have daughters. I don't think they give a damn about them and their civil rights. Their right to chose and a right to their voice that is being taken away any more than they care for their sons, grandchildren and great grandchildren's rights. They are rolling back the right to free speech and a fair election.They are trampling on our constitution and everyone of their children will pay the price.

They are rolling back the protections to clean air, water, food, and our environment. Wait. What? They don't breathe the same air we do? They don't drink the same water, swim in the same ocean or feel the same excessive heat we do? They can't stay in their luxury air conditioned apartment 24/7. They feel the heat.

Fug them all.

Each woman is so different from the rest so it’s easy to see which each one represents. The colors are great! I just love it!

Love it. Where's the t-shirt?

I've fallen in the Mouthy Bitch category a number of times. Its a woman who knows what she is talking about, and isn't afraid to stand up for herself. I've even had an attorney tell me I needed to be more meek and quiet when I testified in court. In other words, more "lady-like". And finally, the judge doesn't want to hear from you anymore, he wants your husband because he's more believable and likable.

Sit down and shut up. That's the reason tRump hates these women. They aren't, lady-like (mouthy bitches), besides being brown.
