Claire McCaskill: Trump 'Irrationally' Attacks Women Because He Is 'Massively Insecure'
The former U.S. Senator had a spot-on analysis of why Trump is openly contemptuous of strong women. He's afraid of them.
Former Senator Claire McCaskill hit several nails on the head in her analysis of Trump's compulsion to attack strong, smart women. On Deadline White House, Nicolle Wallace opened the segment by playing a montage of just a few of the most recent misogyny-laced cheap shots he's taken at women who have dared not kiss the ring.
Wallace ran down a few more of Trump's targets, like Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton, quoting the New York Times piece taking note that he's apparently gone back to attacking strong women who challenge him. (Dear NYT..."gone back?" Had he stopped?) She asked, "What gives?"
The former Missouri Senator had the perfect answer. President Putinpoodle is a quivering, spineless coward.
And so it is pretty obvious to me what's going on. And I think as Gene said, I think it's pretty obvious to most women in the country. It's not like we don't get this. And that's why if Donald Trump is not re-elected, it will be because the women of America have just had enough. We've just had enough.
(psst...is "the other African-American reporter" April Ryan, Sen. McCaskill? Love ya, but do better next time.)
Sen. McCaskill is right, though. One hundred percent. Trump is threatened by competence and intelligence, which is why he cannot attract talent of any substance. He is filled with misogyny, so combine womanhood with strength and intelligence, throw in real courage, and you have Trump's kryptonite.
Have we had enough, yet?
