Brennan Weiss, Wednesday, December 13, 2017
The USA Today editorial board published a scathing critique of President Donald Trump on Tuesday after many inferred that a tweet he sent suggested Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand would trade sexual favors for campaign contributions.
"A president who would all but call Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand a whore is not fit to clean the toilets in the Barack Obama Presidential Library or to shine the shoes of George W. Bush," USA Today said."Rock bottom is no impediment for a president who can always find room for a new low," the editorial board added.
After Trump's attack, Gillibrand called the president "a bully." Gillibrand's Senate colleague, Elizabeth Warren, also rushed to her defense, accusing the president of attempting to "slut-shame" the senator.
"Are you really trying to bully, intimidate and slut-shame @SenGillibrand? Do you know who you're picking a fight with? Good luck with that, @realDonaldTrump. Nevertheless, #shepersisted," Warren wrote.
"A president who shows such disrespect for the truth, for ethics, for the basic duties of the job and for decency toward others fails at the very essence of what has always made America great," the editorial board concluded on.
