Yesterday, I posted a diary called "Trump is just a symptom. The GOP is the disease."
After posting a whole slew of "Greatest Hits" selections from various Republican politicans, party officials and so forth culled from the GOP Rape Advisory Chart including the "symptom/disease" phrasing, it was pointed out to me that however strongly I might feel about the issue of misogyny, calling the entire party a "disease" is incendiary and demagogic language.
A fair point.
Therefore, while I won't even attempt to scrub the prior versions (not that I could anyway...Twitter is forever, after all), I'll refrain from using that part of the statement in the future.
None of which changes the fact that Trump is merely a symptom of the modern GOP's larger misogyny problem.
