Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsHow a real man (and a real president) interacts with his female coworkers:
President Obama and (from left) Susan Rice, Avril Haines, and Lisa Monaco.
They're working; but they're also enjoying themselves and above all, no one feels threatened or intimidated because no one has reason to.
Not so in the Cheeto White House. From everything you hear, women in this White House can pretty much expect just two kinds of presidential interactions: being bullied or harrassed.

The level of hatred I've seen among Trump's cavepeople for Trudeau is almost war-like

"Obumma knew how to present himself in front of the cameras," a GOP acquaintance once told me disdainfully.
"No. He knew how to behave."

He is a fine man, a GREAT President who I admire greatly and miss terribly. That being said...the picture and substance of this post reminded me of Justin Trudeau announcing his Cabinet, which was split 50-50 along gender lines. He was asked why he was doing this, and his answer was classic:
"Because it's 2015."
I bet he and Mr. Obama got along like a house on fire. Now, the WH is just on fire.

I think you just illustrated why. He makes Cheeto - and by extension, them - look like the mysogynist knuckle-draggers they are.
