Email to ernst in response to her blast on female genital mutilation

Senator,

Just got your blast about female genital mutilation.

I am really curious how you square supporting that very good women's issue and also supporting the current president Donald Trump whose record with women is abysmal. He publicly said he "grabs them by the pussy" and forces his attention on them "I just start kissing them." He has been accused of dozens of rapes and made hundreds of misogynist statements about women publicly.

If you stand for women, you should fully stand for women.

She can’t generalize to women’s issues BECAUSE she also worships the rapist and misogynist in chief. If she generalizes, she’ll be destroyed by Trump.

What does she care about women? She's a Republican.
