May the ghost of Helen Reddy haunt Trump.

Helen Reddy

I am woman, hear me roar

In numbers too big to ignore

And I know too much to go back an' pretend

'Cause I've heard it all before

And I've been down there on the floor

And no one's ever gonna keep me down again

Yes, I am wise

But it's wisdom born of pain

Yes, I've paid the price

But look how much I've gained

If I have to, I can do anything

I am strong (strong)

I am invincible (invincible)

I am woman

You can bend but never break me

'Cause it only serves to make me

More determined to achieve my final goal

And I come back even stronger

Not a novice any longer

'Cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul

Yes, I am wise

But it's wisdom born of pain

Yes, I've paid the price

But look how much I've gained

If I have to, I can do anything

I am strong (strong)

I am invincible (invincible)

I am woman

I caught a glance of a question asked about older women,"Why would you care about abortion?"

My answer:My daughters,my granddaughters and my nieces.That's why.

Any more stupid questions whilst you're at it?

The GOP, and in particular, tfg, doesn’t understand caring about other people. I have granddaughters and great granddaughters, they are my life, I don’t want to lose them to a man who doesn’t even care about his own family.

Well said, Sharon.

I guess older women need only focus on childcare services for their grandchildren. 😱. VOTE BLUE all the way down the ballet for the next generation. Let’s get rid of these pigs once and for all!

Note to Trump: piss off Taylor Swift at your own peril.

Protector??!!! Yeah, right.

"Granny, what big teeth you have!"

"The better to EAT you with, my dear!"

That's the kind of protection women would get with that criminal.

Not only creepy, but seriously weird. Who thought this would be a good message to bring women back to Trump? On the other hand, carry on, Republicans! Every utterance out of your mango god-king's mouth drives more people further away. Pretty soon you'll be spending what few dimes you have left on small hotel conference rooms with an entirely paid audience of 20. Maybe you should start whispering in his ear how nice everything is in Venezuela, Or Saudi Arabia. Or wherever old, wannabe dictators go to rot.

I can barely get through a video clip of Trump's chirpings without wanting to vomit. The people who sit, watch, and listen must be mentally unstable. No rational human would sit through that oral excrement for an entire session. Those followers will be woefully awakened if Trump wins this election. A quick trip through Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation and The Federalist Society should be a shock blast to those subservient idolators. Trump's "Comrade Kamala" is pure derangement. Of course, Roberts, Vought, and Dans of Heritage love Trump. He will provide open season to those and those like them to turn our country inside out, upside down and witness the destruction of our constitutional democracy. The world at large has a better grasp of the potential horror that would occur through Trump than any grasp his followers have.

OMG! I want to scream! Brian you got it right on the head - my first reaction to hearing him say this was “ewww”. What a disgusting piece of shit. I told my husband that someone should take that clip and with AI dress him up as the bad wolf dressing up as Little Red Riding Hood’s grandmother and saying that same thing. It is sick and perverted and if women fall for that nicey nice sweet soft voice when he says that, they deserve exactly what they will get from a misogynous America.

President Kamala Harris. That's all you have to say to get Trump in a dither.

The IQ of this country scares the crap outta me. I know trump says he loves the uneducated, boy that's the truth, and they love him too, apparently. I find it hard to believe that so many are following him, agree with him, and are will to cast their vote for him. I am not in a position to change any minds because of where I live. I know there are people out there who can and do try and change peoples minds about who to vote for, it's really not who, but what we want for our country.

Because he too is in educated and super stupid. The world is watching in awe about the choice of leaders that we have to choose from. Our allies want us to have a better future. Our enemies are wanting us to fail and are paying big money to our traitors in our government. We are not going to fail.

“Our protector?” Sounds like a pimp.
