Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Wednesday announced she’s pressing charges against some asshole who approached her on the street while she was talking to voters Tuesday and then proceeded to grope and try to kiss her, the AP reports. “No man has the right to violate that space,” Sheinbaum told reporters at her daily press conference. “I decided to press charges because this is something that I experienced as a woman, but that we as women experience in our country. I have experienced it before, when I wasn’t president, when I was a student,” the Chief Mexecutive added.
Mexico City Mayor Clara Brugada had announced overnight that the man, who has yet to be identified publicly, was apprehended. Whoever he is it’s plain he’s not a star. Because as a famous leader beloved by certain kids of men across the world once said, when you’re a star they let you do it. You can do anything, even to the president of a country of over 100 million. When you’re not a star you get arrested and thrown in a Mexican jail that is unlikely to be pleasant, let alone safe.
