His biggest lie yet
This tweet is particularly infuriating:
Only by enlisting the full potential of women in our society will we be truly able to #MakeAmericaGreatAgain🇺🇸https://t.co/n33fsISWax pic.twitter.com/tcXorZfdea

How can we possibly enlist the full potential of women in our society when women in our society are subject to so much contempt and predatory behavior from men like Trump? How can he mouth pious bullshittery about the full potential of women when he talks about women the way he does? Where does he get the nerve?
Nerve is something used to overcome shame or hesitation. He hasn’t got the mental makeup to experience shame, or the habits of forethought that may trigger hesitation.
Also, he may – much like Michael Shermer, apparently – figure that the groping and harassment are just initiation rituals that serve to weed out the women without the gumption to muscle through it in pursuit of their ambitions, or without the natural temperament to enjoy it and dish it back like one of the guys.
(Understanding without empathy is a really important skill to cultivate trying to figure this one out.)
“President Trump on Friday proclaimed April 2017 as National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month.”
Irony is truly dead.
One day early. And not really funny.
Screechy, my irony meter just blew up. Now I have to rush out and get replacement parts.
Not if you consider what he considers the full potential of women to be. Gotta watch those empty modifiers.
