Kirsten Gillibrand fires back at Trump: 'You cannot silence me'
Washington Examiner ^ | Dec 12, 2017 | Anna Giaritelli

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., slammed President Trump on Tuesday for the "shame" he has introduced to the White House, and said he can't silence her or other women.

"You cannot silence me or the millions of women who have gotten off the sidelines to speak out about the unfitness and shame you have brought to the Oval Office," Gillibrand tweeted Tuesday.

Earlier Tuesday morning, Trump claimed Gillibrand used to beg him for money before teaming up with fellow New York senator, Chuck Schumer, against him.

"Lightweight Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a total flunky for Chuck Schumer and someone who would come to my office 'begging' for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them), is now in the ring fighting against Trump. Very disloyal to Bill & Crooked-USED!" Trump tweeted.

Gillibrand has joined other Democrats who have said Trump needs to step down after several women reiterated their claims that Trump sexually harassed them. On Monday, three of his accusers appeared on NBC's "Today with Megyn Kelly" to discuss Trump's inappropriate sexual advances.

In response, Gillibrand called on Trump to resign.

“These allegations are credible, they are numerous,” Gillibrand told CNN. “I’ve heard these women’s testimony, and many of them are heartbreaking. President Trump should resign his position.”

That’s because everyone knows moronic idiots incessantly babble and rattle on about nothing but stupidity.

By anything, he didn’t mean what everybody is thinking. He meant trading votes and giving political favors.

President Trump said nothing that could be interpreted as trying to silence her.

He told the truth about her, and because she is not disputing what he actually said about her, she lends credence to his statement.

I like how Trump called her just “Crooked.” No more need for “Crooked Hillary” because we all know to whom he is referring. Just “Crooked.”

True, you cannot shut up an annoying woman!

That being said, she is a waste of oxygen and a RAT Dipshit.

She and Schumer are the poster pukes for what is wrong with their party.

Gillibrand will not be shut up?

Talk about projection. The left has been shutting down conservative speech for years.

There is zero chance of Gillibrand being silenced.

It is hard enough for President Trump to get an occasional tweet into the public discourse, without being publicly assaulted in print and on the air for daring to put his views before the public.

Sometimes it's best to let your enemies out themselves.

This one's a few hundred badger hairs shot of a paint brush.
