Hillary Clinton lost the presidency because of sexism, former aide Jennifer Palmieri says
Washington Examiner ^ | March 26, 2018 | by Anna Giaritelli

Hillary Clinton's former communications director Jennifer Palmieri on Monday cited sexism as a key factor in why the 2016 Democratic nominee for president lost the election.

"Fundamentally, I think there's just something they find suspicious in a woman looking to succeed," Palmieri told NBC host Megyn Kelly in a conversation about Clinton's loss.

"I think that a man would have survived that [email scandal] and I think that there was going to be something in the campaign that ended, the emails, if it weren't the emails, it would have been something else," Palmieri explained.

"She's always been stepping a little outside of the box and I just think that's how it manifests itself, is that people, she vexes them, they don't know what to think of her," she added.

I wonder what her reaction would be if someone were to whisper the word Sarah Palin into her ear.

No Princess Jenny. HR Pufnstuf lost because she’s an old douchebag.

I know exactly what to think of her.

Margaret Thatcher was never elected for the same bias. Oh, wait ...

She won the popular vote and lost because of sexism.

exactly. Just ask Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Michelle Malkin, and Hello? Margaret Thatcher?

That's just to name a few that come to mind. It isn't their sex, Jenny - it's their politics.

I remember thinking as I cast my ballot...”Hillary is such a wonderful person, brilliant and articulate and admired the world over. I’d love to see her as President. Too bad she’s a woman.” Really. That’s exactly what I was thinking.

Actually, I think a male candidate would have lost worse than Hillary - if the same email issues existed - she got a pass.

Sure we do. She’s a vile, soulless, corrupt, sickening imitation of a human being with a never-ending thirst for power and money.

No, Jennifer from the block...Fellonia von Pantsuit lost secondary to her hate for everybody not like her, which is a small minority. You could see that train wreck coming a mile away.

Why Hillary Lost. Hmm. It couldn’t be because she was an extremely unlikeable leftist who would have continued the Obama agenda and expanded it, could it?

She might want to double check with General Petraeus and see what he thinks..

Twenty years ago, maybe, but not today, and not her. I do not know of anyone that chose to vote against her because she was a woman. It was an entirely irrelevant consideration.

Hillary Clinton lost the election because she is Hillary Clinton.

Doesn’t get much simpler than that.
