The response from the Supreme Court nominee was the best possible response. She was given a trick question that was meant to start an argument about what a woman is. This is unrelated to M. Trump's comments, which reflect many of our concerns. The GOP is no longer 'conservative'. They've become radical and rabid over the past 40 years.

It's not a trick question.

That's not what a trick question is.

It was obviously a trick question. It was also a leading question and it was a highly politicised question. ANY answer that question can be heavily criticised. The LEGAL definition is not a simple 'human female' answer, which she knew very well.

So, a man and another man (who is called a “woman”) wrote to the Collins English Dictionary. Uh huh. And language influences society. Yea.

Are you claiming that because an extremely well funded faux civil rights movement, strategized over decades by billionaires, has colonized academia, media, government, public education (by stealth), NGOs, etc, that material reality no longer exists? Legally? Wow. Wealth really is power.
