(15,325 posts)..stepped up to stand by the one woman who held the power to stop it from coming down on us.
The more she warned, the more they joined the mob against her. Lobbing derrogatory lies about her professional & personal life.
As she bore the brunt of blatant misogyny, mockery directed at the entire female gender to silence her warnings of the SC & Roe & human rights at stake, every single one of these public women stood not by her side in support against the cruelty she never ever deserved, but they all stood on the side of the mob shouting her down.
They turned their backs rather than embrace her dire cause.
They sold out their own entire gender & those now in the firing line of this catastrophic decision for their own celebrity fame & fortune.
And now here they emerge, chest beating & proud of their newfound power.
Yet when they were needed to stand with women to preserve these rights that hung in the fragile balance, they chose to direct face & point at her with the same mockery as the men of the good old boys club.
They are an opportunistic self serving pathetic lot of betrayers to their own gender.
Ask any one of them today:
Do you Remember this? No? Why not?
In a single term, the Supreme Court could demolish pillars of the progressive movement. And as someone who has worked on every single one of these issues for decades, I see this as a make-or-break moment. - @HillaryClinton in March 2016.
