Jerry Nadler is a sexist pig who should be censured by Congress

Let’s be absolutely clear: Nadler knew exactly what he was doing. What he did was not only sexist, but purposeful and truly ugly. Whether or not Hicks and Lewandowski had an affair or even dated is completely beside the point. They were not a public couple posing for pictures for People Magazine. For Nadler to refer to her as Lewandowski is the lowest of the low, and entirely inappropriate.

Whether he did it to rattle her during her testimony, or to take a shot at Trump, is also irrelevant. I don’t care what his motive was. When you’re so obsessed with taking down a political opponent that you don’t care who is collateral damage, it’s really time to reassess what you’re doing with your life.

In this author’s opinion, Hicks showed restraint. She let Nadler pull this nonsense not once, not twice, but three times before she politely corrected him: “I’m Ms. Hicks.” I assure you my response would not have been as civil and definitely not as refrained. There was simply no reason, under any circumstances, for Nadler to confuse her for Lewandowski.
