Hi Frank-

I just called my staunch Republican parents, and confronted them about the latest with Trump. I said to them, “I am a tall blonde, and Donald Trump LOOOOOOOVESSS tall blondes.

So, would it be OK with YOU TWO for him to come up to me and try to grab my pussy because he is a star and feels entitled to do so?

Is it ok for him to try to fuck me? And remember, you CAN’T be offended if I use those words, if you’re NOT offended that HE uses those words.

So, give me an answer, yes or no. Does he have the right to walk up to me and grab my pussy?!?

DOES HE?!?!

Yes or no?!?!”

I forced them to scream out loud —NO!

I said, “Then you CANNOT vote for him! Period!”

My Father said, “I see your point.”

I think I shook my Mother up very much, and I’m glad.

I don’t think in all of my 49 years, I have EVER said one curse word in front of my parents.

EVER.
