GOP lawmaker mocked woman who said she was traumatized by sexual harassment: ‘Come on! She wasn’t raped!’

CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski and Jamie Ehrlich have dug up yet another damning soundbite from Rep. Jason Lewis (R-MN), who has previously been caught on tape saying he wishes it was still socially acceptable to call women “sluts.”

In the latest clip found by scouring the archives of Lewis’ old talk radio show, which was hosted by the Genesis Communications Network, the congressman can be heard mocking a woman who claimed that she was traumatized by being sexually harassed by former GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain.

This is the typical response from Republicans on this topic and it's sick. Why are they electing these fools?

Because they feel it's worth being slutshamed to have a "decent" politician.

What's decent about a politician that disrespects women?

That's why decent is in quotation marks.
