Wingnut Christian apologist and radio host Jesse Lee Peterson:

Christian radio host: ‘Educated women’ make horrible wives and mothers (Deadstate)

GOP Rep. Sean Duffy announced he’s resigning from Congress because his wife, Fox News commentator Rachel Campos-Duffy is pregnant with their ninth child — a child who will likely have to undergo heart surgery soon after birth. According to hyper misogynist and far-right Christian radio host Jesse Lee Peterson, that’s a bad move.

“Why does she have to work?” Peterson asked in a video clip flagged by Right Wing Watch. “Why doesn’t she stay home, be a wife, a mother, and help raise the children? And now this guy has to step down because this baby apparently has some issues … He shouldn’t quit his job for that. I guarantee you she is making him do it.”

Peterson went on to slam Campos-Duffy as “a selfish, egotistical woman,” adding that her husband is “too beta male to make her do the right thing.”

One of the issues people will bring up is “why do people care what these guys think and say?”

The issue isn’t that a particular wingnut like Jesse Lee Peterson or Tommy “Pumpkin-curious” McMurty have large followings or not.

The problem is there are so many of these hate preachers. When you add them up, they have tens of millions of followers.
