Trump's Inappropriate Comments About Women Continue To Proliferate

On Thursday, Donald Trump suggested Carly Fiorina's face would make her unelectable. "I'm not talking about her looks. I'm talking about her persona," Trump told CNN. "Look at that face!" Trump told the magazine while sitting with a Rolling Stone reporter as Fiorina appeared on TV. "Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president."

"I mean, she's a woman, and I'm not s'posedta say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?" Trump said, according to the magazine.

This morning, on "The View," Joy Behar confronted Trump about his inappropriate comment about Fiorina and asked, "are you making fun of her looks Donald?" Trump responded with the identical statement he told CNN. He then attempted to distract Behar from the question by giving her a compliment, "good to have you back on The View, this is where you belong." She gave a little smile but darted right back at him, following up her question.

Trump unequivocally said no one would vote for Fiorina because of her looks; nowhere did he mention her persona. This is not the first time he has made unsuitable comments about women.

"Rosie O'Donnell is disgusting — both inside and out. If you take a look at her, she's a slob. How does she even get on television? If I were running The View, I'd fire Rosie. I'd look her right in that fat, ugly face of hers and say, "Rosie, you're fired." We're all a little chubby but Rosie's just worse than most of us. But it's not the chubbiness — Rosie is a very unattractive person, both inside and out," Trump said in 2006 on an Entertainment Tonight interview. They declined to air it.

In 2011, he told former Playboy Playmate and Celebrity Apprentice: All-Stars contestant Brande Roderick, “It must be a pretty picture. You dropping to your knees.”

He even made a comment about his daughter Ivanka, "I don’t think Ivanka would do that [pose for Playboy], although she does have a very nice figure. I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her." Rather disturbing, am I right?

Do you really want to talk about looks, though, Donald? Have you seen your hair lately?

"Trump gained just 4 points among men in the last month (from 27% in August to 31% now), he's up 13 points among women, rising from 20% in August to 33% now," said Jeremy Diamond.

How in the world does he continue to defy the laws of politics? Donald Trump has zero experience in politics. I don't know exactly which women are supporting him but I really think they need to re-evaluate their life choices.

These are just a few examples out of the multitude that exist.

In retrospect, I strongly believe if Donald Trump wants to become the president of the United States Of America he should speak about something relevant, something that will make a difference in our nation instead of bashing women's appearances. Maybe the problem is, he doesn't know how to discuss relevant politics because he has never existed in politics...hm. Something to ponder.

No matter what you say Donald, we will never forget that you are sexist, racist, and a bigot.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
