As Twitchy reported, the blue-check mob was pretty certain President Donald Trump sexually harassed Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand with his tweet following her call for him to resign after a handful of accusers appeared on Megyn Kelly’s program.
Lightweight Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a total flunky for Chuck Schumer and someone who would come to my office “begging” for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them), is now in the ring fighting against Trump. Very disloyal to Bill & Crooked-USED!

On Tuesday, Gillibrand held a press conference, where she called the tweet a “sexist smear” and said that she and other women would not be silenced.
We won't be silenced. pic.twitter.com/Di2J4hvn1R

Well, maybe not totally silenced all the time, as Ben Shapiro pointed out.
“Say, Senator, why were you fawning over Bill Clinton for years?”
*silence*https://t.co/3yBZipbrT6— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 12, 2017
That certainly was strange timing in mid-November when Gillibrand decided that President Bill Clinton should have resigned during the Lewinsky scandal, considering she’d spent the previous year campaigning with the Clintons and not saying a word about interns or multiple rape allegations.
You were silent for years. But only because you profited off of The Clintons. Stop. https://t.co/u6vbSkk7D3

But where was your voice last year campaigning for a woman who silenced and ruined the lives of women her husband assaulted? https://t.co/VCLNkCH9yS

.@SenGillibrand has aspirations of running for POTUS. She better get her house in order because her ties to the Clinton's will be her undoing. When they go down, so will she. Her chances at being POTUS are as likely as Maxine Watters being able to tie her own shoes. https://t.co/vJsQFtEIHe

How you know you're in no real danger of being silenced — you incessantly talk about not being silenced. https://t.co/qeMZYRNRqP
