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.
Fiorinas 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 Trumps 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 Trumps remarks. "This is the face of a 61-year-old woman, she said. I am proud of every year and every wrinkle.

I guess they’re better than an enlarged prostate.
Trump is a blowhard wanna be thug. I’m shocked at his support on this board.
I thought she looked like she’d had plastic surgery, but I don’t have a problem with it, if she had.
Because she’s a woman.
NOBODY, especially women, are "proud" of wrinkles (or stretch marks, for that matter). We all very much rather they didn't exist.
Rodney was such a gem. RIP, Mr. Dangerfield.
I don’t care about her wrinkles.
I care that she is on board The Cheap Labor Express
Those islamic/muslim murdering bastards Carly thinks so much of wouldn’t mind her wrinkles. (Heck, they will hit anything anyway, goats, camels, mules etc.) They would love a shot at their big fan, Carly.
Weak response.
She could have had some laughs and gotten the upper hand.
She needs to fire her McCain retreads.
Sixty years old. Looks good for that age. If she’s had surgery, it’s been tasteful.
She does have that Italian look that can appear timeworn and rough under certain conditions, but that look can be seen on Mediterranean area descendants half her age.
And she looks great in jeans!
“Her answer is a good one.”
It keeps her in the News too. I don’t dislike her, and I kinda wonder how she’d do as a VP for the Trumpster?????
I like Carly, and I like Trump. My preference is Cruz, and I like the way he refuses to attack any of his rivals. And even compliments them when he can.
The others could take a page from his book.
I don't want Carly for President, but it's good to hear her come up with a classy response. I suspect that some of the stuff Trump says is just to find out what the response will be. Keeps people off-guard and honest. Also tests if they have a sense of humor or dwell among the perpetually offended.
Looks like the wrinkles she is proud of have disappeared in that picture.
What a double standard. The comments were made in private. Now tell me how many times in public and in front of cameras both friend and foe alike, make comments about Trump's hair? His hair is the most commented on attribute of any politician in the public arena, but when he comments on anyone else it is beyond the pale. Even when he does it in private.
Can you spell hypocrisy?
I don’t think it’s the wrinkles, I think it’s more the personality that is exposed in her mannerisms and just the way she handles herself. Look at the clip of Fiorina criticising the hair of the lady she ran against (and lost to) in California. That’s just a few shades too petty and unprofessional for me.
Too much mean girl that never quite grew up.
There are many things she can be proud off. Each wrinkle is not one of them. Actually from what I’ve seen on TV, she doesn’t have wrinkles or at least nothing noticeable.
She’s a liar. No 61 year old woman has skin that smooth without spending some serious money and undergoing numerous procedures.
That is, unless she’s spending a fortune to have every image of herself air-brushed.
Guess I needed the /s.
