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)
#ReflectRecalibrate Vew through the lens of the People @CNN @MSNBC NOT through the lens of patriarchal authoritarianism, THAT moves you from #MonumentalMediaFail to #MediaMalpractice/ utter betrayal of journalism as a 1st Amendment privilege. (4)

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) Group breakdown of 2016 numbers of voters.
THIS is not a joke!

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) Google it message.
🛎️ 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.)

"The term could also be selectively applied to social groups, institutions,and corporations, which could all experience loss of reputation due to character assassination." (2)
"The mechanics of character attacks are best understood by examining the abusive ad hominem techniques as suggested by the philosophy of logic & argumentation studies." (3)
