People who label the lewd comments Donald Trump made about women as "locker room talk" are disrespecting men and threatening women says Minnesota State Representative Laurie Halverson. She was responding to a comment former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann made about what Trump had said about women that was captured on tape in 2005 and just recently released. " I would also say that disrespects men in this country. My husband would never talk like that about a woman...in his life. My son will never talk about a woman like that in his life. And to say that's the way men behave and men talk, again that is more enabling of this kind of behavior that perpetuates violence against women, that make women unsafe in their homes, that make women unsafe in public spaces and that has to end. Period."
