You've heard the joke that a woman voting for Trump is like a chicken voting for Col. Sanders. It's not only funny, it's true. You just need to look at the way he's spoken of women so far this month for verification.
Yesterday he described Sen. Kamala Harris as "nasty" and "horrible" because she had the temerity to do her job and question Brett Kavanaugh. I suppose Kavanaugh should just be handed a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land without having to answer questions from a United States Senator. Because, you know, he's a Trump appointee and she's a woman.
He also recently called Dr. Deborah Birx "pathetic."
Our President does, however, wish Ghislane Maxwell "well."
And he has nothing but praise for Marjorie Taylor Greene, the radical right winger who won the Republican nomination for a House seat in Georgia. Ms. Greene has made twisted, baseless and bizarre accusations, including:
• Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) represent an "Islamic invasion of the U.S. government"
• George Soros turned Jews over to the Nazis (never mind that Soros was 14 when Hitler died; she follows Q-Anon so facts are meaningless to her)
So an accused pedophile and a self-proclaimed religious bigot are "good" women, and a United States Senator and a member of his own White House Coronavirus Task Force are "bad" women.
TRUMP/PENCE 2020!
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
