Democrat Calls On Trump To Resign After Sexist Twitter Attack Of MSNBC Host
Texas Democrat Sheila Jackson Lee on Thursday called on Donald Trump to resign over his sexist attacks on MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski.
Jackson Lee said Trump’s tweets targeting “Morning Joe” host Mika Brzezinski crossed the line of acceptable behavior and make Trump unfit to remain in office.
“I would argue that our responsibility is not to him, but to the American people,” she said. “And he should resign.”
Jackson Lee was appearing with dozens of Democrats in front of the Capitol to denounce Trump’s remarks.
She also recalled several episodes during the 2016 campaign trail when Trump targeted women over physical traits, including attacks on then-Fox News host Megyn Kelly and Republican contender Carly Fiorina, the only woman in the GOP’s primary field.
“Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that?” Trump said of Fiorina in 2015.
“That was the candidate Trump. And now we’re facing the President Trump,” Jackson Lee said.
