After reading a story in the Los Angeles Times by Matt Pearce called, “Trump water less-attractive women fired, employees say.” a young woman named Annie who goes by Annabella888 on Instagram, decided to share her thoughts and personal experience with Republican nominee Donald Trump. Her memories are painful and reminiscent of what many girls and women go through.
Here is the full Instagram out of Annabella888 post:
This article from today's LA Times has stirred up a lot of memories and feelings that I had tried not to think about for the past several years. Those feelings are difficult to ignore when your former boss is running for president of The United States of America. There's little escaping hearing his name and seeing his face on a daily basis, unless you want to go live off the grid in the back of beyond, which doesn't sound half bad.
10 years ago I was working in the restaurant at Donald Trump's golf course, the one mentioned in this article. It's located about 5 minutes from where I grew up. I worked there before he bought the place and continued to work there after. I brought him his eggs for breakfast and his favorite clam chowder for lunch countless times. Somehow I passed for being attractive enough to wait on him. I know I wasn't his first choice and I wasn't his type. He didn't make me stand there while he put his arm around me and made the other men at the table tell me how beautiful I was like he did to my friend. I didn't get sent home or not scheduled for work on the day's when he was visiting the property, but plenty of my female coworkers did. I was in my mid 20's at the time and I could tell that was pushing it for being able to be in The Donald's presence. He wanted to see girls still in their teens, the thinner and prettier the better. If you didn't match this you could expect to not be scheduled, you could expect to be in line for getting fired.
I guess the reason I'm writing all this is to offer another true example of this man's deplorable character. Sure, there are much bigger issues at stake in this election. Trump giving the "you're fired" to women who didn't match up to his unrealistic beauty standards is not number one on the agenda. But it does highlight the disturbing nature of his mentality. Being a woman and consciously choosing to vote for this man, is choosing to vote against your gender. It's choosing to let this sexist bully get away with discrimination against not only women, but immigrants, minorities, and the working class.

It couldn’t have been easy to speak out so candidly about her experience, but in doing so Annie gave us more insight into the shallow and sexist mind of Donald Trump, a man who is one step away from the White House. There is no doubt for many of us that Trump will continue to use shame and bigotry to manipulate, control and/or silence women once in office. Most girls and women know what it’s like to be judged solely by looks—and it can be painful, especially for adolescences and teens that don’t fit the model mold. And over 90% don’t. But we will have a bit of payback if/when Donald trump loses the election. How’s it going to be when he realizes he just lost to a woman with the majority of women voting in one of the biggest races in the country — in the world. How’s he going to walk that back? Odds it will stay on his mind for the rest of his life. He’ll try to turn it around and blame others, but deep down he’ll know he’s a loser. And isn’t that the best kind of revenge for Annie and others he’s emotionally violated. But his defeat can only happen when we vote. And my bet is we will make it so. We will defeat Donal Trump.
