    I’m saying that more people voted for Hillary Clinton than her male opponent, which flatly contradicts the claim that people wouldn’t vote for a woman. But let me ask the question: If the GOP nominated Kristi Noem as its candidate for president in 2028, would you rest assured that she couldn’t win because of misogyny?

      That is true, but I will add that most people I knew that voted for Hillary also did not like her.

      The people will vote for women, but a disturbing amount are unhappy about it. I don’t even like Hilary, but people were more biased against her than Biden for what feels like manufactured reasons to me.

      • The right wing propaganda machine had been at work on Hillary since even before Bill was elected President in '92, so that could certainly explain it.
