Donald Trump may be nasty in his personal attacks, but that doesn’t make him the only Republican candidate demeaning women and Linda Stasi writes:

Mike Huckabee once said that it’s “a statistical reality that most single moms are very poor, under-educated, can’t get a job, and if it weren’t for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death.” His statistics, in reality, turned out to be pure pig arse!

Then there’s Jeb Bush, who is pro-life but who as Florida governor waived a veto on what he called the “Scarlet Letter Law” (later replaced), which advocated public shaming as the cure for unmarried women who chose to give their children up for adoption. It required them to give their names, ages and the names of sexual partners for newspaper ads that would run every week for one month!

Ted Cruz reportedly said in a debate at Harvard that God should “give women a hymen that grows back every time she has intercourse with a different guy, because that will be a ‘visible sign’ of the breach of trust.” He never said what “God” should do to cheating men.
