Maybe you missed the significance of what those pink hats with cat ears represented. Ask a woman you know if you can't figure it out.

I understand what the ridiculous looking hats represented, it still made them look ridiculous and silly, one of the reasons why women aren’t taken seriously. I also know what they are, even more reason to roll eyes and laugh at them. (I’m a woman and marching because they didn’t like Trump and afraid they can’t abort babies isn’t anything noble.

At the same time, more than 3 million people in cities across the country and around the world held their own simultaneous protests in a global show of support for the resistance movement. It was the largest single-day protest in U.S. history." (my bold for emphasis)

Not any more than taking Trump seriously with his 3a.m. tweets --- can you say OCD? With everything the man had going for him, his wealth, his fame, his anti-establishment stance; kind of hard to take him serious when the best he could do when he opened his mouth was limited character speeches. If a person wants people to take them seriously the best place to start is with good speaking skills. If you don't have that, no one is going to pay attention to you, even when you have something really important to say.

For sure though, those women heard him loud and clear ... all around the world. Locker room talk? Get real.

I barely was on Twitter so didn’t read any tweets, besides bill Clinton was a s pure sexist who allowed a young woman to be harassed by the media and Hollywood and kept quiet to save his own hide and been accused of sexual harassment and misconduct and again those women were crucified by the media, yet women’s rights activists were silent and there was no pink hats March. Where was the outrage then? If they really were concerned they would have been in the streets.

I'm not on twitter either, joined when it first came out, canceled my account within about 6 months later. But I do know, it only allows so many characters per post and when I hear Trump speak, he talks just like that. (OCD) I'm surprised no one else seems to pick up on that.

No doubt Bill Clinton taught the kids today about sex --- he's the reason I do not caps u.s. but still Trump is in a league al his own, that even Bill Clinton can't top. It was the largest single-day protest in U.S. history.

Believe it our not, there are lies a potus can tell and get by with and there are lies that a potus can tell that they can not get by with --- Nixon, "I am not a crook". Clinton, "I did not have sex with that woman". Trump? the list would be long

Nixon lied, it is later found out. Clinton lied it is later found out. Trump lied all the time ... nothing more to see there and Trump's bullying is towards everyone, no one is as smart as Trump, that's what his ego tells him; he also sees what he does as not only acceptable behavior, but funny as well. In his mind, it was the 80s, and everyone behaved that way, what's wrong with it --- ? in the 80s had he run for office, no one would have voted for him, because we all knew him for who he is --- a mongrel.

^^^^^ An irrelevant deflection.

What you’re saying above being true doesn’t make Trump being a bully any less true.

Everything isn’t one side or the other/isn’t ‘Us vs. Them’.

^^^^^ Another irrelevant deflection.

Biden being a bully or not has nothing to do with whether Trump is a bully or not, and calling Trump a bully doesn’t make anyone a Biden supporter/voter, nor a Democrat.

Everything isn’t ‘Us vs. Them’.

Yet Biden had surpassed Nixon, Clinton and per some Trump in telling lies. He isn’t more of a bully then Biden, media or others, also no one would have voted for Biden cause they knew he was a liar then as he is now, que the lost primaries. Biden is just as much a bully if not worse, Trump kept it to the media which many of them deserved it, as well as politicians, Biden bullied regular people during the primaries if they asked a question he didn’t like, called a woman a”dog faced pony soldier “, a man who was chubby challenging him to a push up contest to insult him…. Trying to push businesses to mandate their employees to get vaccinated saying get vaccinated or get fired. Trump never done that, my husband actually met him as a regular citizen before he ever ran for President and said he was a super nice guy and pretty funny.
