GOP congressman on Clinton: 'A lady needs to be told when she's being nasty'
Source: CNN
Republican Rep. Brian Babin on Thursday defended Donald Trump calling Hillary Clinton "a nasty woman" at the final presidential debate, saying "sometimes a lady needs to be told when she's being nasty."
Near the end of the debate Wednesday, Trump called Clinton "such a nasty woman" while she was answering a question on Social Security and Medicare. Trump's comment elicited a strong rebuke online, where the #nastywoman went viral.
Appearing on the "Alan Colmes Show" on Thursday evening, Babin, a Trump supporter, was asked if he thought Trump's comment was appropriate.
"You know what, she's saying some nasty things," the Texas congressman answered.

(4,113 posts)They correctly identified the problems in their loss in the 2012 POTUS election. But they didn't act on any solutions. Today's Republicans are only wired to get even and double down on what you tell them is wrong with them.
This mindset and behavior enabled the nomination of a candidate like Trump out of a huge cast of mostly unqualified clowns, and look at where we are today? With the exception of Kasich and maybe Jeb, there wasn't a candidate in that group that was qualified for dog catcher, let alone POTUS.
If Reinse Priebus isn't tossed out as the national Republican Chair within a week after the November elections, they're showing that they still don't get it.

(23,061 posts)They want us to think that the oligarchs are always right and should be revered and bowed down to, that they should never be held accountable, and what's good for them is good for the country, even when all evidence shows that cutting their taxes and increasing military spending causes huge recessions for working class people. Of course, that's not so much a problem for the oligarchs, they just scoop up all the cheap real estate and stocks, laughing as they send their $$ overseas.

(4 posts)Im a Democrat in NJ whos very concerned about Congress, particularly the Freedom Caucus. Theres one race I know where no Democrat is opposing a blatant Trump enabler. I wish there were. Hal J. Ridley (G) should do whatever he can to publicize his displeasure with Brian Babins neanderthal-like comments backing Trump that ladies need to be told when they are nasty. He is the only one with any party backing facing Babin. Babin cannot get a free pass to continue with the dangerous Freedom Caucus. I would like to do whatever I can to publicize Hals candidacy so people in Orange County, TX know that there is an alternative and this behavior and anti-environmental policies are not acceptable.

(4 posts)Please let people know his only listed opponent is a Green Party candidate, Hal Ridley, Jr. For early voting, checking "Democrat" as your party for all votes won't work for Hal. You'll need to select your candidates, individually. Babin needs to get the message even if he can't be knocked out.
