The GOP has been in turmoil since the Washington Post published a video of Donald Trump making lewd comments about women on Friday. Some rescinded their endorsement of the candidate and announced they would be voting for someone other than the party nominee, some distanced themselves from him but still indicated they would be voting for him and others said they were sticking by him.
Marybeth has a problem with the last two groups.
The Twitter user, who goes by the handle @MBGlenn, runs a conservative blog and is a supporter of Evan McMullin, an independent conservative presidential candidate. It’s unclear when she first decided Trump was unfit for her vote — her page has several posts against him — but it appears the video of Trump talking about grabbing and kissing women without their consent hit a nerve.
“‘What he said is wrong, and the way he treats women is wrong, but it’s not wrong enough for me to not vote for him.’ Thanks, cowards,” read one of 18 tweets.
Marybeth said she had defended the GOP against charges of sexism for years, but now she was “sooo done.”
