Rump Dump Trump had a severe Republican moment earlier this when a tape was released that demonstrates his policies toward and attitude about women, including which feline parts of women he is entitled to grab, but Trump isn’t the only \"Cat grabber.<\/font><\/p>\n

The rats are quickly jumping from the sinking ship of Trump. But not so fast, dear Republican senators and congressmen. Trump may have verbalized his misogyny, sexism and abuse of women into an open microphone, but over the past decades you \u2015 YOU \u2015 have LEGALIZED it. He may talk of \u201cgrabbing\u201d  sexual organs, but YOU have created laws that legally grab control over women\u2019s bodies. Trump may brag about his power over women; YOU, the Republican legislators (and your backers, the Christian Right and rich businessmen), have made sure women aren\u2019t paid the same as men, don\u2019t have paid maternity leave, or can\u2019t get easy access to birth control.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Trump has been called \u201cdisgusting\u201d for his remarks. But you, by actually blocking women\u2019s equal rights, you\u2019ve been rewarded for your misogyny with re-election, campaign cash and future lobbying jobs. You think by disowning Trump now that we, the people, are going be grateful to you. But we know that Trump is only the natural result of a Republican culture that has viciously fought the women\u2019s agenda for years. Trump hasn\u2019t destroyed your party; he\u2019s your end game, the grim reaper from the seeds you have sown, showing up now to preside over your demise. Defeating Trump, or pushing him to drop out, is NOT what will make this right for the majority of us Americans. Like any good doctor, we need to remove the cancer from its source, and that source is you.<\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

It is an assault to pay women less. It is an assault to block day care for all. It is an assault \u2015 a form of apartheid \u2015 when only 20 percent of Congress is women, the majority gender. <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t try to make Mike Pence out to be some sane, better alternative. This guy was behind the legislation to require women who have an abortion to conduct an actual funeral for the fetus! The rest of you have tried to kill Planned Parenthood and many other things that make life a bit easier for women.<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Trump bragged to Billy Bush about his \u201cgrabbing pussy.\u201d But those of you who are the elected officials, who have spent this weekend decrying Trump with your crocodile wails of \u201cshame\u201d and trying to distance yourselves from him, YOU are the ones who\u2019ve been \u201cgrabbing\u201d women the legal way by passing laws that, in effect, assault them. It is an assault to pay women less. It is an assault to block day care for all. It is an assault \u2015 a form of apartheid \u2015 when only 20 percent of Congress is women, the majority gender<\/strong>… [emphasis added<\/em>]<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
