Time for #NotYou for Trump?

-

■ The #MeToo movement is not politicall­y correct – it’s just simply correct. The premise is easy to understand – many actions are wrong, need to be called out and the people, mostly women, have the support of many others.

US President Donald Trump mocked the #MeToo generation when he ridiculed a Democratic senator’s claims of Native American ancestry and challenged her to take a test, saying: “We will take that little kit, we have to do it gently because we’re in the Me Too generation. We will slowly toss it, hoping it doesn’t hit her and injure her arm.”

These comments do not add anything positive to the discussion.

Perhaps it is time for a #NotYou campaign in time for the next US presidenti­al election.
