The tolerant left is now tolerating sexism.
But only towards conservative women, of course.
Daily Beast reporter, Ira Madison III, just attacked White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders based solely on her appearance, and the silence from the left was deafening.
Madison tweeted a disgusting comment about Sanders that was later deleted, but captured first by another Twitter user, calling her a “Butch queen.”

The crowd-sourced online dictionary of slang words, Urban Dictionary, defines “butch queen” as “females and males alike who try to dress fem(inine), but who’s masculine traits always shine through.”
And that wasn’t the only sexism she was subjected to.
Family Guy writer Damien Fahey tweeted another insult based on her appearance:
Sarah Huckabee Sanders looks like every woman eating lobster on a cruise ship.

Conservatives were outraged, and came to Sanders defense.
But all of the women’s march going, “I’m with her” chanting, “nasty women” stood silent, failing to defend a women from misogynistic remarks solely because she is conservative.
Newly appointed White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci came to her defense, tweeting:
The @thedailybeast should apologize. The comment is reprehensible.

An hour and a half later, Madison finally responded to the outrage:

And all was said and done.
This hypocrisy from the left is astounding. If a conservative man commented on the appearance of Hillary Clinton during the presidential election, and even questioned her health and fitness for office, the left was screaming “Sexists!”
But when it comes to disgusting attacks on women from President Donald Trump’s administration, they don’t care what is said.
White House adviser Kellyanne Conway spoke up for Sanders Sunday, since she can relate to the attacks from the left that are ignored.
“The irony of modern feminism is that they look right past sexist comments said about conservative women, definitely pro-life women like Sarah and me,” she told Fox & Friends.
Just more leftist hypocrisy.
