I’m disappointed John Kerry said Trump has the insecurity of a teenage girl. Trump is insecure, yes. But teenage girls, if they are insecure, has a culture of toxic masculinity to blame.

ACLU lawyer Matthew Segal stated that Trump’s presidential tenure should be a reason for Americans teenagers to vote. He also criticized Kerry for “insulting” teenagers.
Although individually worded, Kerry’s statements are not far off from the frequent criticism which is directed towards Trump. Trump’s Twitter habits face ongoing condemnation, which has included calls to terminate his account. Other Americans have referred to the commander in chief as “unpresidential,” or worse.
Although Trump has not yet publicly responded to Kerry’s latest remarks, readers of Fox News did weigh in with their own thoughts and opinions.
“Why is Kerry insulting 8-year-old boys and teenage girls?” one reader said. “This is so disgusting.”
“How anyone could have an ounce of respect for John Kerry is beyond me,” another reader commented. “This man is poking his nose in places where it shouldn’t be. Kerry, you are not an elected official so stay out of things that are handled by President Trump and his administration!”
