What's this?

I'd add women who challenge their points of view

Trump attacks everyone, but he seems to attack women more. Sure he goes after Justin Trudeau, but not as hard as Merkel. He occasionally goes after Adam Schiff, but not nearly as much as Pelosi and Maxine Waters. Which Senator does he attack most? Is it the VP who ran against him? Is it the guy running the investigation into him? No, it's Elizabeth Warren.

John Kelly went after that FL Rep and he refused to apologize when called out for his lies about her. Women who challenge men, especially powerful men, get a pushback that is not seen from men who make similar challenges.
