Democrats who typically fall into the Clinton camp are trashing the two-time failed presidential candidate for singling out white female Trump voters, blaming their ballots cast in 2016 on “pressure” from male figures in their lives.
From Democratic senators to even her former campaign manager, there is a seeming consensus across the board that even “sugarcoating” her comments this week don’t make them any easier to swallow.
During former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s appearance in India over the weekend, she claimed she lost the 2016 presidential race in part because white women didn’t stand up to the men in their lives pressuring them to vote for Donald Trump.
“We do not do well with white men and we don’t do well with married, white women,” Clinton said. “And part of that is an identification with the Republican Party, and a sort of ongoing pressure to vote the way your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should.”
She added: “"I won the places that represent two-thirds of America's gross domestic product. So I won the places that are optimistic, diverse, dynamic, moving forward. And his whole campaign, 'Make America Great Again,' was looking backwards."
Clinton’s former 2008 presidential campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle didn’t defend her remarks.
“Look this was bad. I can’t sugarcoat it,” Solis Doyle said on HLN this week. “She was wrong and clearly it’s not helpful to Democrats going into the midterms and certainly not going into 2020.”
Solis Doyle added: “She’s put herself in a position where Democrats are going to have to distance themselves from these remarks and distance themselves from her, particularly those Democrats that are running in the states that Donald Trump won.”

We’re not only deplorable, we ask our husbands how we should vote....because women are too stupid to think for themselves.
the “Lamb” effect.
it’s a trick
They know her comments reflect badly on the Democrats.
That toxicity has caused a few stumbles and foot drags...but, hey, it isn't her fault.
Those steps in India were slippery and missing a few stones.
Where is her black healthcare van when she needs?
Dammit. Why are they dragging their feet?
Hillary’s gross domestic product is gross!
I’m trying to imagine my wife voting a certain way just because I told her to. In my imagination only.
I imagine old lady Clintoonie would respond, “It’s okay. They’re too deplorable and backward to know I’ve been trashing them.” Hey Clintoonie! SooooooooWeeee!
I am going to give The PIAPS credit for her honesty here. (There is a first time for everything) She said what most demonrats believe but are afraid to say.
Most demonrats agree with her but lie to win elections.
“They know her comments reflect badly on the Democrats.”
How could there be any good comments about any Democrats?
Dems are re-running the 2006 playbook, when they morphed into Blue-dog moderate Democrats.
Liars, all those stinking Demorats agree with her.
Perhaps it’s time that WE start to help Hillary. I cannot think of a better person to DESTROY the Democrats than her.
Let’s all protect her from the non-stop HATE from the Left, from people who don’t understand just how BRILLIANT she is.
She needs our help now, otherwise the Democrats may well end up represented by someone with half a brain.
...like she’ll listen to them...LOL
I’m wondering how many women even voted for the next 25 years after they got the right.
Going around to countries that will treat you like a queen & most likely cover your expenses while you ramble on in a crazy fashion is a pretty good gig.
Even former supporters are now dropping away from her. Is there no one to honestly tell her she is cringe inducing & a pariah?????? I do feel a special thrill knowing I am one of those who voted Republican for the first time in their life and that my vote was a tiny part of her insane meltdown as a politician. Like shopping therapy, d*mn it feels good ; )
What about male Trump voters?
Sorry, just wanted to make everyone laugh.
“And his whole campaign, ‘Make America Great Again,’ was looking backwards.”
*****
Maybe because we dont look “forward” to having you as our prezzy. Talk about effing loser.
