It was no surprise when President Trump attacked Senator Kirsten Gillibrand via Twitter on Tuesday morning; this week, the New York Democrat, among the most outspoken people in politics on matters of sexual misconduct, called on him to resign over the many allegations he has faced since last year.
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!

Gillibrand responded quickly and pithily.
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.

In another Tuesday morning tweet, the president denied even knowing the women who have spoken out.
Despite thousands of hours wasted and many millions of dollars spent, the Democrats have been unable to show any collusion with Russia - so now they are moving on to the false accusations and fabricated stories of women who I don’t know and/or have never met. FAKE NEWS!
