Mika: Trump’s Attitude Towards Women Has Been the Most Damaging Thing I Have Seen in Decades

EXCERPT:

MCASKILL: "I don’t disagree with you. I just -- I -- just -- I want to push back a little bit. Because one of the things that is hardest for me is, after doing 50 town halls in Missouri, I tell you what's on people’s minds in Missouri, they are scared to death about their health care costs. They are scared to death about getting ripped off by air ambulances. They are scared to death whether or not they are ever going to be able to afford to retire. They’re worried that their pensions aren’t going to be there, the pensions that they have earned. So what I worry most about -- and I don't disagree with you, Mika, the lack of respect that has been shown in some instances towards women by this presidency, but what I’m most worried about right now is what really matters to Missouri families is totally being ignored. I mean, we are ignoring the crisis that is most near and dear to most people in my state, and that is, will I be able to afford health care costs next year. And I hope that this August work period that Mitch McConnell announced, I hope this is the opportunity for us to finally be able to vote on the bipartisan measures that are agreed to and compromised that will bring down costs in the exchanges, that will hopefully maybe address the pharmaceutical costs. I mean, we have — this administration has totally folded in term also of standing up to Big Pharma. And I -- those are the things that I am so focused on and I want to be sure I stay focused on."
