There Will Be Blood

Really - there's not much more to say about this buffoon and his comments and attitudes about women. But the fact that it's Trump AND Fox News is ... well, karma, no?

What I LOVE is Trump's defense that he wasn't referring to her period - that would be "deviant" thinking. How is talking about menstrual cycles deviant? The point is he attacks women who stand up to him - in a juvenile style that's the way of schoolyard bullies, not elected officials -- or anyone for that matter out of grade school. And even then I think most boys know better.

Of course, we'll leave it to non-US publications to actually use the word "menstruation" in a headline - look at that font size, will you? - apparently that's too scarey a word for the US media.  There isn't a woman alive that hasn't experienced the male point of view on this one - oh she's angry, it's PMS - from husband, co-worker, boss, stranger... Thank gawd Kelly is relatively young - god knows what Trump would have said if she'd been of a certain age. Talk about angry...

I haven't been a very good caretaker of my blog the past few years. But I have a feeling that's all over with, given the start of the 2016 campaign cycle... pun intended.
