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

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.”

She should drop the make up mask. I’d rather see the wrinkles. The eyes look insane with the painted rings to accentuate them.

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.


Of course, you're right!

She looks like she's had a lot of work done, so this stupid remark might come back to haunt her.

Apparently, she is the one trying to keep this subject in the news.

Thing is, Trump’s words were not that she was ugly.

There is an old saying that basically states “get your facts sraight or else you may look the fool”.

Yep, he is fat, has beady little eyes, a horrible complexion and his hair is a joke. /S

I think this insulting others physical traits is childish on FR. We are better than this, what they do at DU. I am not looking for the purdy one to be prez.

“If only she had a wrinkle for every HP employee who’s life she destroyed.”

I was going to say something along those lines.

I still want her to be asked if she feels guilty yet for accepting that $10 million golden parachute from HP.

“his remark was beyond the pale.”

I agree. And let’s face it, he’s no Clark Gable.

Pot, meet kettle!

She had a face lift besides fillers and botox which is fine by me. I wish I had her money and I would do the same.

Wonder if she’s related to Alan Colmes, that left eyebrow is riding pretty high.

To me, she looks like she might have had a complexion problem even when she was young. She is somewhat photogenic in a non-standard kind of way. Like the imperfections of Julia Roberts.

Regardless, her appearance is not one of her many problems.

Fiorina can be heard saying “(she) said what everyone says, ‘God what is that hair?’ So yesterday!’”

Later, Fiorina discussed the gaffe during an interview with Fox News, where she said that discussion of a female politician’s looks “goes with the territory.”

Maybe you don’t quite understand the gravity of the situation we’re in.

The only reason that she’s made it thus far is because she’s a woman.

I wouldn’t dignify the remark, I’d let it go into space where it belongs.

Maybe she is trying to copy the strategy of the currently leading candidate in trying to stay in the news. Pick silly fights to make headlines.
