All I knew about the whole Kelly/Wilson episode is what I read online, and none of it had pictures, so I didn't know the congresswoman was African American. Now it makes that much more sense to me that Trump and Kelly are showing her no respect.

Yeah, ya know, as a female, I really didn't care for that line. WinkyDink Oct 2017 #1

it was calling out Kelly with his sacred women crap JI7 Oct 2017 #2

We know what his intent was.. whathehell Oct 2017 #5

I'd rather not use the "Trump La David Johnson Defense." WinkyDink Oct 2017 #14

I don't know what you mean.. whathehell Oct 2017 #21

I fully got Lawrence's point. His riposte was an insult, but then,...man-splaining. WinkyDink Oct 2017 #15

I'm female, and I didn't like it either.. whathehell Oct 2017 #4

I did not watch Lawrence last night, so I don't have the full context. LuckyCharms Oct 2017 #6

It was about kelly 's sacred women comment JI7 Oct 2017 #7

Ok thanks. n/t LuckyCharms Oct 2017 #8

He was referring to the fact of Trump grabbing women... whathehell Oct 2017 #9

It was that, after one's hands "grabbed" a woman's genitalia, one had better wash his hands before WinkyDink Oct 2017 #16

Ok thanks...I would expect better of Lawrence. LuckyCharms Oct 2017 #18

Kelly is a true believer n2doc Oct 2017 #3

I would not allow Trump to touch any part of me, including my hands. TNNurse Oct 2017 #11

The context did seem to be about Trump's treatment of women. rsdsharp Oct 2017 #13

Not Lawrence's allusion, I don't believe. WinkyDink Oct 2017 #17

The "doesn't wash his hands" thing is false, per Snopes. nt DLevine Oct 2017 #19
