Opinion: The left turns a headline about the Constitution into a 'rape joke'

Unfortunately the left will stop at nothing how did the democrats get to this point

No, the real joke is our 'President'

People on the Left cannot possibly believe that there was anything even remotely offensive here. To make that leap you have to be the sort of person who lives to be a victim or perpetually “offended.” Good news, this sort of political hysteria is precisely why Republicans win.

At the very least the headline was tone deaf, considering the frequency with which sexual consent has been discussed in the context of the hearing. At most, it was intentional and this follow-up is an absurd attempt to regain credibility as an unbiased source

Susan Collins some Democrat Senate candidate is coming for your seat soon

As journalists and writers, you know the meaning of the word consent and it’s weight and meaning in the MeToo movement/ sexual assaults. Or you’re careless. Don’t gaslight your readers.

It would great if you would put the persons name in the opinion so we can decide whether to pay the paywall.

Maybe it’s me, but you guys seem to tweet more opinion pieces than actual news.

You either did it on purpose, or you are so bad at your job as editors that you failed to appreciate that the word has a more salient meaning in the cultural moment. My guess? You’re gaslighting — grown up equivalent of “Take it easy — It was just a joke!”

'we can't own up to our mistakes so we blame the boogeyman-left.' I'm telling ya man, this country deserves a better class of conservative.

Hahahaha you are so funny. Who wrote this bs? Ridiculous.

Opinion: WSJ regrets wording with obvious alternate connotation, blames libs anyways.

The WSJ is “the left” now?

Yeah, who would've thought a headline using the word consent was inappropriate following weeks of discussion about consent.

Opinion: Repugnant Men make 'rape jokes' a headline for the new Constitution.

Dude, give up on this one. It was a horrible headline.

I can’t believe absolute trash hack work like this gets published, and I can’t believe you all make money off of it.

Opinion | It’s time to look at the (political) science behind climate changeOpinion: It’s time to look at the (political) science behind climate change Which is. To tax the ordinary working class tax payers so much that they can't even raise their own families but the taxes they pay are distributed to the welfare loving migrants who enjoy life with freebies. Climate change tax is just another theft from people. You mean the “scientists” paid to twist their findings to “prove” climate change, so neoliberals can tax middle class and lower income citizens?
