ABC Desperately Tries to Get Dolly Parton to Call Trump the Face of Modern Sexism

[See NewsBusters for more.] Nightline correspondent David Wright on Thursday night desperately attempted to get actress and singer Dolly Parton to label Donald Trump as the face of 21st century sexism.

We have a president of the United States who said the things on that bus.”
