Presidential hopeful/misogynist/future super villain Donald Trump took a cheap shot at Republican Debate moderator/Fox News host/vagina-haver Megyan Kelly by implying that maybe she questioned him about his Twitter insults about women because she was on the rag.
The irony of course is that Kelly kept her cool, even when Trump was cracking wise. On the other hand, Trump responded to her perceived attacks by insulting her for hours on Twitter. But it’s women on their periods that can’t be trusted to be functional human beings because emotions?
Well, women have turned Twitter from a hub of sexist slurs to a home for learning with the hashtag ‪#periodsarenotaninsult. Let’s educate Trump together about how periods are totally normally, and he’s a slug of a man.
.@realDonaldTrump Just finished menstruating. I still don't like you. Guess it had nothing to do w/ my period.#periodsarenotaninsult

At the time of posting, Trump has yet to respond to a single one of these tweets.
So, what have we learned today? Menstruation happens. And Trump needs to be watching Key & Peel:
H/T The Independent
Kristy Puchko has been accused of being a “menstruating feminist.” Her response.
