Pelosi, other female Democrats to wear black to Trump's State of the Union address
ABC "News" ^ | January 10, 2018 | By BENJAMIN SIEGEL

A group of female House Democrats, including Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., plan to wear black for President Donald Trump’s first State of the Union address later this month, in an anti-harassment demonstration to show solidarity for victims of sexual harassment and misconduct.

“We are supporting the brave women in every industry and every corner of the country who are making their voices heard,” Pelosi said in a statement. “We are at a watershed moment in the nationwide fight against sexual harassment and discrimination, and we must continue to keep up the drumbeat of action for real change.”

The effort is being led by Rep. Lois Frankel, D-Fla., the chair of the Democratic Women’s Working Group, and has been in the works for weeks. Other leaders of the group, including Reps. Jackie Speier, D-Calif., and Brenda Lawrence, D-Mich., also plan to participate.

Democratic women led by Frankel wore white at Trump’s first joint address to Congress last February, a nod to the women’s suffrage movement and rebuke of the Trump administration.

Nothing more than a politically pandering posture

These are not “real” women . . They are females who think their counterparts (and especially minorities) are too stupid to actually think for themselves and see thru their very hypocritical BS

“Real” women don’t act like these do, childish, mentally unstable. They are really an insult to the millions of women who take care of themselves and their families, love America, hate the killing of the innocent, are honest and moral, and have a maturity and mentality decades ahead of Pelosi and her loser colleagues.

How appropriate they should be wearing black.

It is the uniform of a grieving widow.

“Black widow” is not just a figure of speech.

Great minds think alike! I was thinking of President Trump mentioning how they appear to be a coven, and then asking who the daddy warlock is? But I guess they could respond with, “It depends on what the meaning of the word is, is?”

Maybe we Deplorables could celebrate the truly great women who were offered careers for a romp on the couch and who had the self regard to say NO! Or who were inappropriately touched and punched back!

Long may they live!

Well, it is the death of the Leftist movement in the United States. I guess it’s fitting to be in mourning.

LOL. Most women "of a certain age" eagerly wear black. First, it removes competing with other women fashion-wise. Additionally, black camouflages the extra pounds and lumps. Not a sacrifice for these gals.

Last year the morons wore white to his Congressional Address. This year it’s black just like at the Golden Globes. But for this group of Dem females, it’s more like the Moldering Toads.

Childish to the extreme. Wait, isn’t black a sign of respect? Spread the word...

What clowns, petty clowns...
