![]() No. Just no. No more “boys will be boys” and “that’s how men talk.” JUST NO. I sit at my desk at work and scroll through my Facebook feeds on my break and I am disgusted…. Maybe that isn’t the right word because it is rude…. Ashamed, maybe… Disappointed, absolutely. I cannot believe the amount of WOMEN who have made these excuses for Donald J Trump, GOP Nominee, and the horrible things that he has said about women and the things he has said he’s done to women. There is no excuse. As a woman, I have a voice and I’ve held back for so long that I cannot do it anymore. I haven’t wanted to step on toes or offend anyone, but if you’re offended by my opinion on a man who wants to be the President of the United States then please stop reading this now because I don’t want to hear your “criticism.” However, as I scroll through the social media I have grown to loathe leading up to the election, my heart just crashed onto the floor because I cannot believe the words that I am seeing… I literally just read a post on Facebook written by a woman with a daughter that reads, “Everyone is overreacting about something he said 10 years ago” and that we need to “get over it.” I can’t get over it. I know too many young women who have been assaulted and they can’t get over it. That is not the kind of human being I want running the country that I live in and love. I can’t get over it because he never apologized for his words. He has never felt any kind of regret for the way he has treated women or the way he has spoken about them. It is one thing to not have clear answers as to how you’re going to run our country if you win the election, it is a completely different thing to continue to spew poisonous words about women from your butthole-shaped mouth. This is not about the fact that he said this comment (“Grab them by the p***y,” in case you are unsure of which one I’m talking about) years and years ago. It’s the fact that he has continuously shamed women throughout his career and throughout this election process and has never felt any remorse for the things he’s said.
