The Lonely Life of a Republican Woman
The New York Times ^ | October 27, 2016 | S. E. Cupp

Posted on 10/27/2016 7:36:44 PM PDT by EveningStar

As has become typical in an election marked by its often unpleasant surprises, I awoke to a storm of outrage on Twitter on Wednesday morning. Newt Gingrich had told Fox’s Megyn Kelly that she was “fascinated with sex” and didn’t “care about public policy.”

Mr. Gingrich unleashed this boorish attack after Ms. Kelly tried to pin him down on whether the many accusations of sexual assault against Donald J. Trump, and his own words on the matter, should disqualify him from the presidency.

That Mr. Gingrich (with whom I once hosted a television show) thought the best way to deflect attention from Mr. Trump’s awful behavior with women was to attack another woman tells you so much about the depths to which Mr. Trump has dragged the Republican Party.

It’s also a sobering harbinger of how hard it’s going to be for the party to win back Republican women, let alone appeal to new female voters in the future.

As a conservative woman who wanted very much to support the Republican nominee, it’s been a deeply disappointing year and a half. After helping the Republican National Committee address some of the troubling deficiencies the party faced after 2012, as outlined in its so-called autopsy report, and witnessing some real progress in our outreach to women in the ensuing years, I did not expect an egomaniacal arsonist to come along and set all that ablaze.

Written by one of the most ignorant sluts in the GOPe/NeverTrump movement

Well said! I didn't realize this egotistical tramp was still around, desperate to still be 'relevant'.

Hey, these replies aren’t going to show up anywhere else, are they? Isn’t this the atheist chick married to some Latino politican that was named after a dog?

Wow. Cupp is one effed up person. Not even Dr. Kervorkian can ease her bitter effin’ pain.

Um, no. Ms. Kelly attacked Trump by outrageously calling him a "sexual predator."

Exactly. She said "Donald Trump" and "sexual predator" two or three times. But of course Megyn would NOT call Bill Clinton a sexual predator on air, even though it was proven in a court of law that he is indeed a sexual predator. Clinton was disbarred and fined over $800,000 as punishment.

Finally, Kelly snarkily suggested that Speaker Gingrich "work on his anger issues". (What??) She hurled that insult at him at the tail end of the interview, when he had no time to reply.

Megyn Kelly and S.E. Cupp = Two pieces of sh*t.

Since when is S.E. Cupp conservative? She’s a female Bill Kristol.

Megyn Kelly wouldn’t say Bill Clinton Sexual Predator but she was quick to blurt out that unproven (and suspiciously timed) allegation .

At least she abstained from her Howard Stern “provoked locker room talk”.

Show me your friends, and I’ll tell you who you are. I’m a woman, and my female friends are conservative. She speaks for herself as a liberal not a conservative.

That autopsy is what destroyed the GOP and created Trump. The autopsy is what gave us support for lawless Amnesty as a party policy. The autopsy is what alienated the party base from all the party "leaders" who marched in lockstep but found they had no followers. SE Cupp needs to go back to showing off her physical assets; no conservative has any interest in her mental equipment.

S. E. Cupp proclaims to be a conservative, yet favors liberal causes, votes liberal, writes liberal opinion pieces, and has an undistinguished, checkered career track record with vacillating viewpoints. As such S. E Cupp is likely to be regarded as a pariah by both liberals and conservatives because each “side” has been given ample motivation to be suspicious of her by her public actions. S. E. Cupp is a victim of her own compromised moral compass, sacrificed on the altar of ambition. She has put herself in a lonely nowhere land devoid of anyone with any self respect, and now she publicly whines that she feels alone.

It is very sad that someone publicly confesses that she does not know her own self.

Hopefully she still has the support of her family.

S.E. Cupp is a whiner. Trump is not anti-woman.

She is an extremely elitist, arrogant, atheist—very libertarian leaning “conservative” who worked with Beck for years.

She was one of the first #NeverTrumpers...Big surprise there

Cupp is an arrogant elitist just like n Goldberg and Erickson. Like a silly teen, she thinks “She’s all that,” and has so much wisdom as a 30-something.

Like Beck, I have lost any respect I had for her.

Trump has really shined a light on the elitist/globalist/uniparty corruption that has taken hold in DC!!

“So she cooked up that STUPID name.”

A “B” Cup with padding at best.

“Cupp denied that her employment at MSNBC influenced her position.”

That says it all.

“Cupp has described herself as an atheist, but has consistently stated that she is open to theism, and “really aspires to be a person of faith some day.””

In the interim, she is her own God.
