Anchorage Assemblywoman Karen Bronga is evidently upset with the national election of Donald Trump for president. So upset, she expressed her Trump Derangement Syndrome distress by dressing up as a concubine modeled after a character from Margaret Atwood’s “A Handmaid’s Tale,” a dystopian novel about a time when women are kept as breeding stock, due to low fertility levels in the human population.
Dressed in red with a white modesty bonnet, Bronga sat in her seat at the Assembly chambers for the official meeting, which had been postponed from its usual Tuesday time. You can see the meeting on YouTube:
Women like Bronga, who are often dealing with a lot of personal trauma, have worn these costumes to protest Donald Trump in general, as their way of calling him a fascist.
On Tuesday, one woman — not in Alaska — was observed wearing such a costume to her polling place. While Republicans wearing “MAGA” hats were removed from or forced to remove their hats at polling stations for “electioneering,” women dressed in these concubine outfits were not considered partisans by election officials.
Trump has won Alaska by 55% of the vote so far, his highest win ever in the 49th state.
