Mary L Trump - The Misogyny Runs Deep In Donald and in America
With more revelations linking Donald and convicted rapist and sex trafficker of girls and young women, Jeffrey Epstein, one would think he would take a break from showing his deep disdain for women. But Donald’s misogyny runs deep, and he comes by it honestly because most of the people in his family—including the women—were misogynists.
As I mentioned, when Donald was speaking to reporters on Air Force One a few days ago, he called Bloomberg reporter Jennifer Jacobs “piggy.” None of the reporters there came to their colleagues’ defense. In fact, they didn’t react at all.
A day later, he had another run-in with a woman simply trying to do her job. Instead of answering her civilly, Donald demonstrated his increasing lack of impulse control and his lack of interest in hiding his contempt for women.
These moments have gone viral, but they’re nothing new—Donald has engaged in similar rhetoric and behavior for decades. Why is this different? Do we seriously think there will be any repercussions? A lot of people are pointing out that his reaction makes him appear even guiltier, but everything he has done vis-à-vis the Epstein files since coming back into office in January has made him seem more and more guilty.
