For anyone who cares about facts, this is based, not on “equal pay for equal work” but on the fact that, of the top 20 members of the White House staff, only 6 are women, so that the median income of women is less than the median income of men in the entire White House operation. Nor is it the worst administration in terms of percentage of women in high positions..Which means it’s basically one more partisan lie being passed on by cartoonists who are either too lazy to take five minutes to Google like I just did, or too stupid to understand what they’re reading or who are simply here to act as messenger boys for the rich oligarchs at the top.
