    This is an amazing paragraph — amazing in that the WH thinks this is a really good defense to show why John Kelly treats women well https://nbcnews.to/2raWs2t pic.twitter.com/841fP8DWXD

        Thanks, John Kelly, but we ladies can take care of ourselves. I’ll try not to clutch my pearls when someone drops an F-bomb if you could just keep our president from dropping an actual bomb.

        “...women have no desire to be treated as separate and “sacred.” They simply want to be acknowledged as human beings who deserve basic respect and equality.” John Kelly Is Sad Women Are No Longer 'Sacred.' Women Are Not That Sad.https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/john-kelly-women-sacred-humans_us_59e91025e4b0df10767be25e …

        Except when using their gender to accuse men of being sexist or misogynistic.

        Huh. How does one do that with their gender? Do they accuse with their vagina? Most accusers use their voice, regardless of what's between their legs. I've even seen men accuse other men of sexism - again using their words, not their penis. What a strange world you must live in.

        After many liberal men and women defended Michelle Wolf's "jokes" as a "roasting" and "appropriate" and in good taste, tweets like the original one here lose credibility.

        The "women are more emotional men" things always makes me roll my eyes, when you consider there are far more men sitting in prison for losing their sh*t at a job rejection, date rejection, money rejection, road rage.

        The kind of women who took jobs in the Trump WH are exactly the type of women that think that type of man is ideal. Personally, I’d tell Kelly to fuck off if he thinks I cant handle expletives.
