Fiorina fires back at Trump: 'I'm proud of every wrinkle'
The Hill ^ | 9/12/2015 | Cory Bennett

Posted on 09/12/2015 2:36:06 PM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Carly Fiorina on Friday addressed Donald Trump's remarks about her face, defiantly declaring she is "proud of every year and every wrinkle."

“Ladies, look at this face!” the Republican presidential hopeful said at the National Federation of Republican Women's annual conference, according to the Washington Post.

Fiorina’s rejoinder came in response to a comment her White House rival made in a Rolling Stone interview published Wednesday. “Look at that face,” said Trump, the GOP front-runner. “Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?!” Despite Trump’s insistence Thursday that he was “talking about persona,” many accused the real estate magnate of misogyny. The mostly-female audience laughed and cheered as Fiorina brushed aside Trump’s remarks. "This is the face of a 61-year-old woman,” she said. “I am proud of every year and every wrinkle.”

Are there any Jewish Republicans in DC?


There was, but we kicked his weasel butt out last June.
His name was Eric Can’tor/won’t

Many more weasels need to be Cantorized.

Does anyone have a link to the vid that Trump was referring to (of Fiorina) when Trump made the comment?

If Fiorina was making a snarky face (about Trump) that Trump was referring to, then his comment, while petty, is not “unfair”.

I’d rather see Trump attack her on issues, though. Or did he, and the MSM just doesn’t tell us?

I guess when I heard it I took it differently than anyone else. I thought he was putting a “face” on the future of the country. Like Jobs was the face of Apple and Gates is the face of Microsoft.

Not quite. She shot up in the polls after a very good performance in the first debate despite being in the “junior varsity” debate. RICK Perry coulda learned something something from her.

Baloney. He is telling the truth about both parties and candidates. Way past time. No more Mr. NIce Guy! We have stayed nice way too long and stayed quiet too long. Female friends on FB are against her and for Trump. This world has changed since President Reagan and not for the better.

“Trump is a blowhard wanna be thug. I’m shocked at his support on this board.”

He is as you say - plus he is whatever any one wants from one day to the next - a chameleon - changes/modifies opinions daily as it suits the audience, plus he must use gutter behavior toward anyone who has the slightest criticism of his utterances. In my opinion, he has no substance, only a quest for self aggrandizement.

It is as though a veil is over the eyes of those who excuse any gross/tacky behavior he exhibits and his lack of actual plans to accomplish a task - admirers are supposed to accept “it’ll be great; the greatest; I’m the greatest”. He is not fit to be President of the United States.

I didn’t miss it. I posted it last week and sent a link to Trump’s twitter account.

I was a strong Trump supporter. I am down to just being a supporter. I’m not so sure of my support for him anymore though. Even my teenage daughter was excited about Trump, but he is ruining the spirit in his campaign. He is swift boating himself! It’s sad.

I freaked out when I saw the first gray hairs form on my head and got my hair streaked - blond on blond!

She’s not normal to be “proud” of wrinkles!!! Humans all put up with wrinkles when they come. But they are not “celebrating.” What a liar.

She twists her face up like the wicked witch when she’s talking about political issues. It’s weird. Relax, Carly.

First, this isn’t a hit piece.
Second, one needs to know what the enemy is up to.
Third, you are unwise not to critique your candidate....good and bad.
Fourth, my household and I are currently Trump supporters unless/until he swift boats himself.
Fifth, Trump is not above criticism.

Cancer treatment leaves a mark. Radiation and chemo will change your visage, voice and a lot else.

Been there done that.
