‘Maybe I'll wear a fetus’: Trump spokesperson threatens controversial TV attire
A spokesperson for Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump has said she may "wear a fetus" during her next television appearance after she was criticized for donning a bullet necklace.
Katrina Pierson frequently appears on television as a spokesperson for Trump and, while it may not be out of the ordinary for Trump-related discussions to produce some controversy, on this occasion it was all centered on Pierson’s necklace. Why? It was made of bullet cartridges.
Needless to say, some people were not happy, including Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America.
Surely @KatrinaPierson wore bullet necklace on #CNN to bring attention to 90 Americans fatally shot daily #gunsensepic.twitter.com/o45m0V1hXe

— Who Else? (@TheRoyalHe) December 30, 2015In response to the myriad negative comments about her choice of jewelry, Pierson says the people "freaking out" are "sexist," adding that "they only approve of women in pant suits and jackets. Oh, and tampon earrings."
The liberals freaking out about my accessories are sexist. They only approve of women in pant suits and jackets. Oh, and tampon earrings.
