Full title : Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg: ‘Macho Atmosphere’ and ‘Sexism’ Caused Hillary Clinton to Lose 2016 Election

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg claimed Sunday that “sexism” and a “macho atmosphere” contributed to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 election loss.

Ginsburg, speaking at a Columbia University Women’s Conference event, was asked to elaborate on remarks she made in September, claiming that “sexism” played a major role in the 2016 election.

“I think it was difficult for Hillary Clinton to get by even the macho atmosphere prevailing during that campaign, and she was criticized in a way I think no man would have been criticized,” Ginsburg said.

“I think anyone who watched that campaign unfold would answer it the same way I did: Yes, sexism played a prominent part,” she added.

It couldn’t possibly stem from rampant Clinton corruption, or a historically inept campaign, nor the constant stench of malfeasance. Nah, it’s gotta be sexism.

No, Ginny, it was her lying, her criminal activity and her greed that caused her to lose.

There are millions of women whom I would gladly vote for. But not her...................

It’s a shame — and danger to the Republic — that a Supreme Court Justice should be this blind.

No, it was the power of a 70+ year-old comic strip. People found out the real voice of Popeye’s Sea Hag, and they revolted.

“Commies just don’t get it...she sucked as a candidate, sucked as a human being....”

...but the Commies will vote for a Commie who’s a “good
candidate” in the form of Bernie Sanders,a dyed-in-the-wool
Communist.

Go figure.

IMHO

I guess Hillary’s running mate Senator Kaine was a bigger pussy than I thought.

He must have left his Testicles in Hillary’s Lockbox.

“I think it was difficult for Hillary Clinton to get by even the macho atmosphere prevailing during that campaign, and she was criticized in a way I think no man would have been criticized,” Ginsburg said.

In a nutshell as to why feminism never works.....they want to be treated equally even though they are not equal, then they complain.

No, Hillary’s horrid personality, lack of political acumen, and political baggage lost the election for her.
