Who does Thump think he's fooling with these lame ass International Women's Day tweets? [View all]








Who does Trump think he’s fooling with these lame-ass International Women’s Day tweets?Today, thousands of women across the country are going on strike to promote “the enormous value that women of all backgrounds add to our socio-economic system—while receiving lower wages and experiencing greater inequities, vulnerability to discrimination, sexual harassment, and job insecurity.” Trump took a break from livetweeting Fox & Friends this morning to do some perfunctory box-checking:




On International Women's Day, join me in honoring the critical role of women here in America & around the world.







I have tremendous respect for women and the many roles they serve that are vital to the fabric of our society and our economy.



Who does this clown think he’s fooling? A few examples that belie Trump’s purported “respect for women.”

His cabinet includes thirteen men and only two women.
“Grab them by the pussy.”
His administration plans to eliminate Violence Against Women grants.
“You have to treat them like shit.”
He’s said that women who have abortions should be prosecuted and his administration plans to cripple Planned Parenthood.
“I think that putting a wife to work is a very dangerous thing. ... When I come home and dinner’s not ready, I go through the roof.”
His administration’s global gag rule on abortion is devastating for women’s health around the globe.
“Blood coming out of her whatever.”
He has been credibly accused of sexual harassment and assault on a number of occasions.
There are many more horrifying examples like this! FOH.
