Update: Dec 12, 2017 12:45pm
By calling for Donald Trump to resign yesterday, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) knew she would become a target. And this morning the President unleashed a hateful and demeaning attack on Twitter saying “Gillibrand … (was) someone who would come to my office “begging” for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them.)”
Lightweight Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, a total flunky for Chuck Schumer and someone who would come to my office “begging” for campaign contributions not so long ago (and would do anything for them), is now in the ring fighting against Trump. Very disloyal to Bill & Crooked-USED!

Gillibrand responded on Twitter with this: “You cannot silence me or the millions of women who have gotten off the sidelines to speak out about the unfitness and shame you have brought to the Oval Office.”

CNN: Gillibrand Calls On Trump To Resign (Dec 11, 2017 6:45pm)
New York Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand has heard enough. She became the fourth Democrat in the Senate to call on Donald Trump to resign. She made the remarks to Christiane Amanpour on CNN.
Exclusive: If President Trump does not "immediately resign," @SenGillibrand tells me, Congress "should have appropriate investigations of his behavior and hold him accountable." https://t.co/n1TsoTwA7i pic.twitter.com/gXssRSBUCw

“President Trump has committed assault, according to these women, and those are very credible allegations of misconduct and criminal activity, and he should be fully investigated and he should resign,” Gillibrand said. “These allegations are credible; they are numerous.” Gillibrand joins Cory Booker of New Jersey, Ron Wyden of Oregon and Jeff Merkley also of Oregon in calling for Trump to step down.
