Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), a moderate Democrat, used a sexist term to refer to a woman in his townhall audience. Democrats are usually on the side of the aisle that is opposed to micro-aggressions and non-PC terminology, so it is all the more shocking (sarcasm intended) that a Democrat senator used this sexist term.
