If ever there was a time for the sarcastic "HULLOOO????" or "YUH THINK????"...

Female Republicans 'horrified' by male GOP lawmaker's description of Cheney: report
Mychael Schnell 17 hrs ago

Three weeks after GOP Rep. Liz Cheney (Wyo.) said she would vote to impeach former President Trump, a barrage of her male colleagues lined up to criticize her during a conference meeting, The New York Times Magazine reported on Thursday.

Some of the remarks were decidedly sexist, and were shared among GOP women in political circles in Washington, D.C., the Times reported.

A remark from Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) in particular created waves.

Kelly reportedly equated Cheney voting to impeach Trump to a football game, telling the conference, "You look up into the stands and see your girlfriend on the opposition's side - that's one hell of a tough thing to swallow," the Times reported

The male colleagues in your caucus talk about you this way, too. You're just not there to hear it.

Have any of them been asked to weigh in on Matt Gaetz’s show and tell photos? That might call for a fainting couch and a couple glasses of wine.
