A self-described Republican woman from Worcester, Massachusetts, stunned a C-SPAN host Thursday by calling women "emotional bimbos" who are "too dumb" to serve in Congress.
The caller, who gave her name as Susan, phoned into Washington Journal as a Manhattan federal judge had just ordered President Donald Trump to pay writer E. Jean Carroll nearly $5.8 million. The Supreme Court had denied Trump's appeal on June 29.
And Maine's Democratic Senate nominee Graham Platner had just suspended his campaign after a former girlfriend accused him of rape.
Susan began the call by weighing in on both stories.
"Okay. E. Jean Carroll — come on. Give me a break," she told host Taylor Popielarz on C-SPAN's Washington Journal. "It was her word against his. Nobody was around. They didn't have the dress. They didn't have nothing. Trump, we don't want you to pay her one single dime. She was put up by this George Soros, you know."
"Even though I don't like Platner — how do we know this woman is telling the truth?" Susan asked. "We don't know."
"I don't want any woman running for House or Senate," she continued. "We should get them all out of there. They are emotional bimbos, and I'm sick of them."
"So wait, Susan, just to clarify: you don't think women should serve in elected office?" the shocked C-SPAN host gasped.
"They're too dumb," Susan replied. "They are the dumbest — I listen to these people. They're stupid."
"Then we go on my side — we got stupid Republican women," she said. "And I heard one guy say they should be commander in chief. You should be in Bellevue for a checkup. It's unbelievable. No women. They are stupid."
Susan ended the call by arguing that former President Barack Obama should be in jail.
Platner suspended his campaign Wednesday night after Jenny Racicot, a former girlfriend, told Politico he entered her home uninvited in 2021 and raped her while intoxicated. Racicot told CNN she chose not to fight back out of fear. "Complying is not consenting," she said. "It's getting it over with."
"These allegations are troubling, serious, and false," Platner said.
