I have a daughter who is hearing impaired--a vibrant, intelligent mother and software engineer. I remember when she began first grade and we had to have a meeting with the teachers. They expressed surprise that she could read so well ("we thought that she would be a big problem in this area&quot . I was shocked, and responded: she's hard of hearing, not stupid.

I have a beautiful niece who is also hearing impaired: a lawyer who works for tenant's rights. I know she's endured hurtful comments in the past.

Why should Marlee or any of these women (or men) have to face insensitive, stupid remarks from people like Donald Trump?

If he were a fictional character, he wouldn't be believable because you'd think that no one can be all bad.

Well, guess what?

As a fan of "Seinfeld" I have the whole thing on DVD. Marlee guest starred on an episode, and in the "Inside Look" of it Julia Louis-Dreyfuss says of all the pretty guest star women Marlee was the one the male cast was most starry eyed about.

Trump is a crass misogynist predator and anyone voting for this orange creep has taken leave of their senses.
