My executive producer, JLP, suggested I cover clips from Trump’s Fox News Town Hall in Scranton, PA, last night.
Female-minded liberals kiss-up to phony hardship
“It’s hard on a woman in America.”
I’m sure most of you heard... (Drudge) WARREN DROPS OUT…
AP Headline: Warren ends presidential campaign, centering race on 2 men
(AP) — Elizabeth Warren ended her once-promising presidential campaign on Thursday after failing to finish higher than third place in any of the 18 states that have voted so far. While the Massachusetts senator said she was proud of her bid, she was also candid in expressing disappointment that a formerly diverse field is essentially now down to two men.
“All those little girls who are going to have to wait four more years,” Warren told reporters outside her home in Cambridge, Massachusetts, as her voice cracked. “That’s going to be hard.”
Known for having “a plan for that,” Warren electrified progressives for much of the past year by releasing reams of policy proposals that addressed such issues as maternal health care, college debt, criminal justice reform and the new coronavirus. She planned to pay for many of her ambitious proposals with a 2 cent tax on fortunes worth more than $50 million, an idea that prompted chants of “Two cents! Two cents!” at her rallies.
Ex-Planned Parenthood for ‘powerful women’
…. “I think we all have to really interrogate why being for someone other than someone who looks like almost every other president we’ve had, in terms of age and gender, why everything else is seen as risky,” said Cecile Richards, the former president of Planned Parenthood.
Nancy Peli“Every time I get introduced as the most powerful woman, I almost cry because I wish that were not true,” she said Thursday. “I so wish that we had a woman president of the United States.”
(Tulsi Gabbard’s still in.) Clearly aware of her power, Warren didn’t rush to endorse either Sanders or Biden. RME.
NOW wants Biden!
Toni Van Pelt, the president of the National Organization for Women, urged Warren against siding with Sanders and noted Biden’s involvement in the passage of the Violence Against Women Act.
Warren said outside her house on Thursday that “gender in this race, that is a trick question,” since any woman running for office who acknowledges sexism is derided as a “whiner” and those who don’t aren’t accepting reality. But she nonetheless suggested her road might have been harder than that of the male candidates.
“I was told at the beginning of this whole undertaking that there are two lanes, a progressive lane that Bernie Sanders is the incumbent for and a moderate lane that Joe Biden is the incumbent for,” she said. “And there’s no room for anyone else in this. I thought that wasn’t right, but, evidently, I was wrong.”

Great calls including questions about the Sabbath, and a guy nitpicking Jesse about sin and celebrating Christmas! Also Victoria reminds us that Bill Clinton may have a black son, Danney Williams (she claims it’s been proven by DNA evidence).
Bill Clinton joins degradation of men
Also, I hated this… (Daily Mail) Bill said: “Counseling was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do but it was necessary. She deserved it, Chelsea deserved it and I needed it.”
“I feel terrible about the fact that Monica Lewinsky's life was defined by it, unfairly I think.” PLEASE.
