Monday at Georgetown University during a panel discussion on women and human rights, 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said her loss to Donald Trump was a combination of misogyny caused by globalization anxiety and “old-fashioned sexism and a refusal to accept the equality of women.”
She continued, “Any of you who have read my book about what happened know that I think misogyny and sexism was part of that campaign. It was one of the contributing factors, and some of it was old-fashioned sexism and a refusal to accept the equality of women, and certainly the equality of women’s leadership, and some of it was an outgrowth of all this anxiety and insecurity that is playing on people and leading them in a hunt for scapegoats.”
She's right, to an extent. Just view C-D for a few minutes, and there are tons of people who would never vote for her because she's a woman.
How silly.
There are litteraly 10s of 1000s of posts in the elections forum about her campaign, and there were not "Tons of People" who refused to vote for Hillary simply because she was a woman.
In her defense, admitting that you lost to Trump because a large portion of the population doesn't trust you as far as they can throw you would have to be a bitter step. It would lead to a lot of self reflection that I'm doubtful she could handle.

There are tons of people who would never vote for her because she's a habitual liar with a decades long trail of corruption running behind her like a Kelly Clarkson dress train. The fact that she is a woman played little part in her loss.
I'm a woman, and I know how many of us can be. Which is, overreact, over dramatic, poor decision making drama queens. Just look at some of the women in power right now, like Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters and Elizabeth Warren. Complete whack jobs.

Bill and Hillary were flying to a book signing and she remarked that she could throw a bunch of twenty dollar bills from book sales out the window and make a lot of people happy. Bill responded, " . . . "Do I really have to finish this one?"
