Statement by National NOW President Christian F. Nunes
WASHINGTON, D.C. —Christian F. Nunes, National NOW President, issued the following statement on Donald Trump’s continued misogynistic social media posts:
“Donald Trump is a convicted felon, misogynist, and sexual predator who continues to use sexual violence as a weapon to silence women. What’s more, his entire campaign is based on spreading misogyny and a permission structure for violence against women.
That’s why he goes on Truth Social to post crude sexual references to Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton and amplify his followers’ own hate speech. Is this the person we want as our next president? Is this the kind of campaign we can expect from now on—or can we put a stop to this dangerous new brand of politics, and keep it from coming back?
We’ve seen Donald Trump behave this way for decades—showing nothing but disrespect for women, contempt for their worth, and aggression against their bodily autonomy. But now we’re at a turning point.
The best way we shut down his misogyny and attacks on women is to beat him at the ballot box. We cannot allow abusers to hold power in the White House. That’s what this election is all about.”
