Democratic White House frontrunner for the November 2016 election in the United States of America, Hillary Clinton has accused the Republicans of mounting campaigns against the interests of women, even as she also accused her former supporter, Donald Trump of what she called “a crude verbal assault on a female journalist.”
She said that the stances of the Republicans on women’s rights and health care could set back the cause for women’s equality in America, adding: “what the rest of the Republicans are saying about women is outrageous.”
Clinton further accused the Republicans of waging a war on women, adding: “they brag about slashing women’s health care funding. They say they would force women who have been raped to carry their rapist’s child.
“We don’t hear any of them supporting raising the minimum wage, paid leave for new parents, equal pay for women, or anything else that will help to give women a chance to get ahead.” [myad]
