Thank you @AprilDRyan for addressing Trump/GOP attack on America Women for what it was/is: Anti-America. I do need to add, it's also a great example of the uselessness, the actual danger to Democracy of reactionary "reporting." 📎 Note: #BeBetterMedia (1)
#MonumentalMediaFail -- references women exercising their American right to petition their government -- a majority government, by the way, that in majority numbers does not respond to them (U.S. citizens) face to face in meetings &/or in town halls W/out noting Trump is ... (2)
a self-confessed sexual assaulter of women under investigation for conspiring W/a foreign adversary, i.e. Putin, to install himself in the Oval Office &, per, a preponderance, of evidence (our eyes & ears) an obstruct of justice installing his protection on the Supreme Court. (3)
For the record, my reading of the numbers is, although the numbers of any people supporting the biggest liar in living memory in the Oval Office are too many, the number of white women who supported him is 43%, not 53%. Am I wrong? 'Cause accuracy matters. (5)
P.S. In my experience, GOP has ALWAYS hated protesters. Perhaps you-all should Google it & put the story into it's patriarchal context? & continue to #ReflectRecalibrate Not only does GOP not respond to citizenry, media favors Trump/GOP re free air so/"others" will be heard! (7)
🛎️ ding, ding, ding, ding .... FYI, I stand gratefully corrected by @edgeoforever re my misreading of the #'s here. I asked if I was wrong or not for a reason -- because sometimes I am! & I'm so pleased W/the civics courtesy extended while correcting me in the convo. #BeKind
FYI, my reading of the #'s graphic was wrong. I'm grateful to all who are correcting me/demonstrating how civility works in the midst of this Trump/GOP hate directed @ all NOT him. cc: @AprilDRyan I think I asked this question re #AMJoy yesterday, too. (I'll delete it in a bit.)
