Hi —
Last night, Donald Trump snapped at CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins for not smiling after she asked about newly released Jeffrey Epstein files.
Let that sink in.
A reporter asks a legitimate, serious question about serious allegations — and his response is to police her face.
If you’re a woman who’s ever been told to smile by a stranger, you know how familiar this feels — and how quickly women’s voices get dismissed the moment we don’t perform pleasantness on demand.
This is a reminder of why we need more women in office.
Women who ask tough questions.
Women who refuse to smile on command.
Women who will hold powerful men accountable instead of coddling them.
The best response to sexism in politics? Run for office yourself.
