'Vote Trump, Get Dumped' Movement Aims to Hit Trump Where it Hurts

Donald Trump's support has only grown in the face of near-constant controversy, jaw-dropping gaffes and unrestrained displays of violence and racism at his rallies.

But now a group of women is trying a new tactic to derail the GOP frontrunner — to swear off sleeping with or dating any man who supports Trump.

The "Vote Trump, Get Dumped" movement invites women opposed to Trump to "Join us by wielding your influence."

"Until Trump is defeated, we don't date, sleep with, or canoodle with Trump supporters," a manifesto on its website reads.

When all else fails to stop fascism in America, the Lysistrata solution to the Donald Tramp problem just might work.

ReTHUGS that support Tramp won't touch us. Period. End of discussion.

2. I've suggested this for years with regards to the Republican hoard.

If every local, state and federal Republican office holder got cut off you'd be seeing a few changes. And I'm saying even David Vitter's favorite brothel...... just say no.

3. Using sex to get what you want

Women don't exist for male satisfaction though. However, women using sex, or the lack of it, to get what you want, is a good move politically. They're not sex objects though.

It's not your mind that will defeat Trump, it's ultimately your body. Although to be fair, it's using the mind to think of using the body to get what you want. Not sex objects though.

6. Sex, or the lack thereof, is sometimes the only way women can get men to come to their senses

Some men, and I mean conservative men, that is.

But it won't work unless every woman bands together, even hookers and escorts, get with the program.

4. Are the sort of women who, quite rightly, feel that way about Trump

the sort of women who would date a Trump supporter in the first place? It sounds a bit like a vegetarian boycotting McDonalds.

Still, fair play to them all the same.

7. Nothing like a permanent list of those who think sex is power and have no problem...

...using it that way while decrying 'objectification'.

I'm sure this won't backfire.
