For Trump it's a subtle message. For him. He's got pardons for everyone, ifyaknowwhatimean.

Schlafly's agitation against the ERA was one of the most ridiculous, mendacious disinformation campaigns in the history of American politics.

She and her minions went around saying that if it passed, single-gender bathrooms would be outlawed. No, I'm not kidding. This transgender-bathroom bugaboo shit has a long and dishonorable political history.

She also made a big deal about women being drafted, and amazingly, this had traction even after the draft ended in 1974.

Yet another proof that if you lie long, loudly and often enough, enough people will believe you.
