An Estrogen led electorate

Image result for women run for office


      First it was when the women marched in the millions after the Inauguration and then Time Magazine named the Women's Movement as its Person of the Year last year. We are beginning to see a cultural change that has only grown larger since the election of Trump.  In Trump we see what our World looks like with an extreme testosterone fueled narcissist leader.   A love of authoritarians and a lack of sympathy toward the less fortunate has moved women to raise their voices as never before.  As a member of a group, older white men (OWM), that is the bulwark of Trump supporters I can't begin to say how much I love to see the women of our Country stand up to the bully in the White House.  There are many of us OWM's who also realize how dangerous a testosterone run Country can be.  When I voted last week I voted for women when given a choice.  I voted for a saner society.

P.S.
      Just finished James Comey's book.  He certainly had problems with Trump because Trump kept trying to get him to not prosecute various administration officials.  Trump didn't respect the barrier between the President and the FBI Chief.   When Trump fired Comey the new Acting FBI Chief McCabe let Comey fly back from California on the jet he had taken to Los Angeles.  This infuriated Trump and he called McCabe to see who authorized that and McCabe said he did.  Trump then asked McCabe "Your wife lost her election in Virginia, didn't she?"   McCabe answered, "Yes she did." Trump then said this to McCabe "Ask her how it feels to be a loser" and hung up the phone.  Trump got revenge by firing McCabe only hours before he was eligible for his FBI pension.
