Last the last election revealed lots of racism,this one will reveal a lot of misogyny.
Half of it is on CD.

I do not think she is a great candidate,or even honest,but hey we have something in common.

Gender!
Perhaps Sarah Palin should have had the top spot for Rs again. At the least, she has far less of a history of corruption and utter incompetence than Clinton. Not to mention in better health. And of course the liberals wouldn't have gone all misogynistic on her, right?

Yes. It's like saying I am so happy my son has found a woman to marry. She may be a crack addict and a prostitute, but she is a woman.
No don't wait for an honest woman, someone we can be proud of, someone more than 50% of the population can trust. Yes the OP makes perfect sense.

Well, if we are judging the candidates by brains, geopolitical knowledge and intellectual curiosity, I'd say we got Sarah Palin with a penis at the top of the GOP ticket in 2016.

They both speak the same language: word salad idiocy.

Perhaps Republicans should have tried nominating a woman. But my prediction is Republicans will not for a very very long time if ever. They will let them stand on the stage, like they did with Carly Fiorina and Ben Carson (who Trump likened to a child molester), but when it comes to the actual nomination, Republicans nominate a while male. And look at what Republican women say about about other women; just unbelievable.

Yes, wait for that perfect perfect woman so it never happens. Even though Trump has a long history of lying, cheating, attacking women and minorities, not paying his contractors and being sued by two states for Trump University.

Really? Do you look at everything through the prism of identity groups and equalizing outcomes?

Never mind. It is a rhetorical question.

You have been attacking with personal insults and name calling other women in this thread, Seacove, because we dare to disagree with you. You have very little self-awareness.

The perfect man never happened or happens either - the selection is based on who one thinks serves the country the best.

I have been watching female Trump supporters for the better part of a year. Clearly they don't read their own posts. If women don't care that they have never been represented in the White House in our country's entire history, that's on them. I can assure you, don't ever try that with men. They will steamroll right over you before you can even think of trying it. Which is why all presidents and vice presidents have been men for 227 years. That is why women had to beg for the chance to vote, for the chance to apply for credit, etc. Men give them 5% and make them scratch and beg for 20% instead of demanding 50% at the start.

Are you seriously suggesting that there are no better women than Hillary? I don't support Trump either and that is why he won't get my vote either. Now I am 100% sure that I never said wait for a perfect woman, voting for Hillary simply because she is a woman is rather limited in ones thinking. Hillary is also a demonstrated liar. She also has a record of many undesirable traits. How many women has Trump had to pay off like the Clintons?
As for not paying contractors. Was the work done to spec? Was it done on time and as per contract? I don't know. I have withheld payment from contractors before. Poor quality and not to contract matter. I wouldn't mind the Fed not paying contractors for not meeting contract a bad thing.
