There has been an issue being brought up lately concerning Donald Trumps sexist ways in the past. There was a Super PAC ad showing women reading disparaging quotes Trump has actually said. Hillary Clinton released an attack ad and even brought up how horrible he was to former Miss Universe Alicia Machado during the presidential debate.
Now added to the list is a lawsuit filed by former employees at one of Trumps golf courses. Included in the suit are statements that Trump wanted women fired for being unattractive and replaced with better looking women.
Not that anything was wrong with their work performance, he just didnt want them there because they didnt look good enough for him.
One of the employees was Haley Strozier, a former catering director at the golf course. In her declaration, she claimed she was ordered to fire women specifically because Trump didnt find them attractive. One colleague Strozier claimed was highly competent and professional was order by the Vice President of the company to be fired because she was overweight. She said in her statement:
At some point in approximately 2003, Vincent Stellio a vice president of our company instructed me to fire Ms ***. Mr Stellio told me that I should do this because Mr. Trump doesnt like fat people and he would not like seeing Ms *** when he was on the premises.

Just my opinion. That republicans are all in now is probably an outcome of the same engagement schedule of undecideds.

(6,363 posts)Now it's time to feel the heat of the spotlight that HRC has lived with (and constructively overcome) for 25+ years...on every single issue.
If you thought you could draw HRC's behavior from 20 years ago into the campaign and not have your 20 year history examined with a microscope...you'd have to be delusional. Oh...wait...maybe that's why you didn't see it coming.
