Indiana state senator deletes 'fat women' meme about Women's March

Source: MSN/USA Today

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Sen. Jack E. Sandlin is facing a social media backlash for a Facebook post that called the masses gathered for last weekend's Women's March "fat women out walking."

Sandlin, a Republican who represents 36th District voters who live between 10th Street and south of Greenwood in Johnson County, took down the message but not before screenshots had been widely shared on Facebook and Twitter.

The post in question went up Sunday and showed a photo of a mass of protesters, many in pink hats and carrying signs, with the words "In one day Trump got more fat women out walking than Michelle Obama did in 8 years."

Sandlin, a rookie senator, deleted the photo and posted a new message about midnight Monday.

To think there are people who actually VOTED for this skin-covered blob of poop makes you afraid to visit the state.

He doesn't know how it got there. Well maybe we should look up his fb page and see if "fuck you" just appears on his wall.

He doesn't "think" he put it up there. Maybe "he hit something "

What a lying piece of shit.

Oh, a retired cop. What a surprise.

And they quickly strike back against ALL the left for some SNL writer making a bad post on Twitter about the Gropenfuhrer's offspring.

Of course she apologized immediately and took it down right away. This jack ass simply pulls it down and waits to post another day.

Hypocrisy is alive and well in this country.
