That's right. Trump may not be doing the grabbing, but under AG Sessions's new War On Drugs, many women, mostly black, will be served a warrant to have their vagina searched.

That kind of search has been going on for a long time without a warrant so why one now?

They should name it the Shanique Myrie Law.

One night in 1986 Massachusetts police officers showed up at Shirley Rodriquess house, forced open her door and, finding her sleeping in bed with her husband, told her that they had a warrant to search her vagina for drugs. When she refused their order to reach inside herself and take out the stuff, police took her to a hospital where, Ms. Rodriques said, a physician forcefully searched her vagina while a nurse held her down on the table.
No drugs were found. But when Ms. Rodriques filed a lawsuit claiming her rights had been violated, courts found no wrongdoing, citing the existence of a valid judicial warrant. It is still possible to get such a warrant today.

Focusing on Trump, in spite of how much you dislike him, not leaving out how idiotic and despicable he may be, is taking away the real issue here.
Finally, there are the fatalities. While there are no official statistics on the number of women killed or injured in drug raids and arrests, the cases that have come to light give plenty of cause for concern. Some victims were mothers, like Tarika Wilson, shot to death by a SWAT team in 2008 in Ohio, as she stood, unarmed in a bedroom with her six children, holding her 1-year-old baby. Some were pregnant, like Danette Daniels, shot to death by a New Jersey police officer following a drug arrest. Some, like Frankie Perkins and Theresa Henderson, were choked to death by officers who believed erroneously, it turned out that they had swallowed drugs. In one case, a transgender teenager named Shelly Hilliard was brutally murdered after being set up by police as an informant.
In addition to the drug war, women have also suffered from the broken windows policing practices the aggressive enforcement of minor offenses on the unproven theory that it will prevent more serious crime that Mr. Sessions promotes. For instance, soon after Eric Garner suffocated in a police chokehold, Rosann Miller, a black woman who was seven months pregnant, said she was also placed in a chokehold by a New York City police officer during an encounter that started over the use of a barbecue outside her home.
Officers have also used the threat of arrests for minor broken windows offenses to extort sex. In one case, a New York City officer was convicted in 2010 of official misconduct for offering to rip up a summons for being in a park after dark in exchange for oral sex.
These encounters do not reduce violence; they contribute to it. Critics of police violence and mass incarceration have rightfully shed light on the pain of families separated by long prison terms, of women torn from partners and children. But womens suffering isnt restricted to heartbreak: They have been raped, choked and killed, all in the service of public safety. Sadly, the recommendations of D.O.J.s task force are likely to be a recipe for more of the same.

If a drug-sniffing dog sniffs a suspected drug mule's Vagina and indicates that there may be drugs hidden in there, what would be wrong with the Police or Customs Officer sticking a finger or two in there to check.

Most men have that warrant:
It is called a marriage certificate!
