Most politicians live for those moments–you know, the ones where there is a cute baby in the audience that they can hold or cuddle for that ideal photo shot. I mean who does not love babies?
Well, I will give you one guess.
‘Don’t worry about that baby. I love babies,’ he said. ‘I hear that baby crying, I like it. What a baby, what a beautiful baby. Don’t worry, don’t worry. It’s young and beautiful and healthy and that’s what we want.’
He has a change of heart.
After a few paragraphs discussing China devaluing their currency, he returns to the baby, who has carried on crying throughout.
‘Actually, I was only kidding. You can get the baby out of here. That’s alright.
‘Don’t worry. I think she really believed me that I love having a baby crying while I’m speaking!
‘That’s okay. People don’t understand. That’s okay.’
Imagine that, people taking you at face value and believing the words you say. Once again proving that Trump is a pathological liar and his words are not real or truthful. Honestly though, using the language “You can get that baby out of here” was just rude but not surprising. This exchange is such a great example of the type of man Don the Con is.
There are many reasons why I never believed Trump could be elected President and his treatment of women was one of them. As a 46 year old woman, I never believed in this day and age that a man of this caliber would be anything other than castigated for behavior like this; instead, the public elected him President. Disheartening to say the least. For me, marching in protest in DC on January 21st was something I could not miss. I remember telling my husband I signed up to go to the March with a bunch of women that I did not know. I had found the group on Facebook and they were organizing buses from a nearby town. He was worried about potential violence and the fact that I did not know anyone I was going with. I told him that this was something I had to do and I was going no matter what. I was not worried or afraid. I was determined and fired up.
My husband is a great and kind man and is very supportive. He would have marched with me but our 3 boys had activities, sports and rides to college that needed to take place that day. He did it all so I could march in protest.
I don’t understand the women who support Trump. Did they grow up hearing “locker room” talk. Is this behavior acceptable to them? Is it acceptable for their children? Everyone talks about their daughters but as a mother of 3 boys, identifying this behavior as unacceptable is just as important. I am raising my men to be Feminists. I want them to treat and respect women as their equals. They are not superior and this misogynist behavior will not be tolerated–at least by those who did not vote for Trump..
Here is a clip highlighting the severe character flaws of our President elect.
I marched with millions of my #RESISTERS that day (and a few friends from my super Republican town). For me, the march continues until Trump and his cronies are out of office.
#4 of Things I Hate About Trump- his ridiculously orange appearance
I am a Nasty Woman.
I was at the march on January 21, 2017 in DC but I did not have the privilege of hearing Ashley Judd recite Nina Donovan’s poem. I did not get a chance to hear or see this until I got home and to this day it still brings me to tears. That first line, “I am a nasssssssty woman” overwhelms my senses with pride, strength and unity–all the things I took away from my participation in the march. Nina’s words include the line, “I am not as nasty as a man who looks like he bathes in cheeto dust”. It is impossible to talk about Trump without commenting on his unusual orange color. You would think with his kind of money someone would have advised against this level of self tanning but his color is just as classless as his behavior.
Day 3 Things I Hate About Trump – his creepy MANipulation stance during the October debate.
At the campaign debate on October 9, 2016 Trump loomed behind Hillary as she discussed the ACA. He stood behind her like a creepier and to women everywhere this was a classic MANipultaion move. He was showing his dominance. It was as if the world was watching animal planet. Look at his face and body language; this man is a misogynist a$$hole.

He talks about grabbing women by the pussy and sexual assault as if he is entitled to women. Billy Bush lost his job over this but we elect Trump, the person who made the sexual assault claim, as President. Yup, the world has gone insane. We normalized misogyny and set the world back over 20+ years. The worst part for me was that Trumpsters on the Trump Train were still willing to overlook his severe character flaws, this disgusting behavior was OK with them. Let me make it clear this “locker room” talk is offensive on every level. Listen to the entire disgusting exchange here or see transcript below.
Dialog:
Donald J. Trump: You know and …
Unknown: She used to be great. She’s still very beautiful.
Trump: I moved on her, actually. You know, she was down on Palm Beach. I moved on her, and I failed. I’ll admit it.
Unknown: Whoa.
Trump: I did try and fuck her. She was married.
Unknown: That’s huge news.
Trump: No, no, Nancy. No, this was [unintelligible] — and I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping.
She wanted to get some furniture. I said, “I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.” I took her out furniture —
I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn’t get there. And she was married. Then all of a sudden I see her, she’s now got the big phony tits and everything. She’s totally changed her look.
Billy Bush: Sheesh, your girl’s hot as shit. In the purple.
Trump: Whoa! Whoa!
Bush: Yes! The Donald has scored. Whoa, my man!
[Crosstalk]
Trump: Look at you, you are a pussy.
[Crosstalk]
Trump: All right, you and I will walk out.
[Silence]
Trump: Maybe it’s a different one.
Bush: It better not be the publicist. No, it’s, it’s her, it’s —
Trump: Yeah, that’s her. With the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know, I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.
Bush: Whatever you want.
Trump: Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything.
Bush: Uh, yeah, those legs, all I can see is the legs.
Trump: Oh, it looks good.
Bush: Come on shorty.
Trump: Ooh, nice legs, huh?
Bush: Oof, get out of the way, honey. Oh, that’s good legs. Go ahead.
Trump: It’s always good if you don’t fall out of the bus. Like Ford, Gerald Ford, remember?
Bush: Down below, pull the handle.
Trump: Hello, how are you? Hi!
Arianne Zucker: Hi, Mr. Trump. How are you? Pleasure to meet you.
Trump: Nice seeing you. Terrific, terrific. You know Billy Bush?
Bush: Hello, nice to see you. How you doing, Arianne?
Zucker: Doing very well, thank you. Are you ready to be a soap star?
Bush: How about a little hug for the Donald? He just got off the bus.
Zucker: Would you like a little hug, darling?
Trump: O.K., absolutely. Melania said this was O.K.
Bush: How about a little hug for the Bushy? I just got off the bus.
Zucker: Bushy, Bushy.
Bush: Here we go. Excellent. Well, you’ve got a nice co-star here.
Zucker: Yes, absolutely.
Trump: Good. After you.
[Break in video]
Trump: Come on, Billy, don’t be shy.
Bush: Soon as a beautiful woman shows up, he just, he takes off. This always happens.
Trump: Get over here, Billy.
Zucker: I’m sorry, come here.
Bush: Let the little guy in here, come on.
Zucker: Yeah, let the little guy in. How you feel now? Better? I should actually be in the middle.
Bush: It’s hard to walk next to a guy like this.
Zucker: Here, wait, hold on.
Bush: Yeah, you get in the middle, there we go.
Trump: Good, that’s better.
Zucker: This is much better. This is —
Trump: That’s better.
Zucker: [Sighs]
Bush: Now, if you had to choose honestly between one of us. Me or the Donald?
Trump: I don’t know, that’s tough competition.
Zucker: That’s some pressure right there.
Bush: Seriously, if you had — if you had to take one of us as a date.
Zucker: I have to take the Fifth on that one.
Bush: Really?
Zucker: Yup — I’ll take both.
Trump: Which way?
Zucker: Make a right. Here we go. [inaudible]
Bush: Here he goes. I’m gonna leave you here.
Trump: O.K.
Bush: Give me my microphone.
Trump: O.K. Oh, you’re finished?
Bush: You’re my man, yeah.
Trump: Oh, good.
Bush: I’m gonna go do our show.
Zucker: Oh, you wanna reset? O.K.
