MSNBC's Katy Tur: 'Veiled Sexism' for Trump To Suggest Hillary Is Low Energy
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

If it's sauce for the goose, it's sauce for the Hillary . . . Question for MSNBC's Katy Tur: of all the epithets Donald Trump pinned on his primary opponents, which was the first and arguably most effective? Bet you answered "low-energy," with which Trump of course famously jabbed Jeb. It stuck, and helped drive Jeb from the race.

Did people suggest at the time that Trump was hitting below the belt? Nope. So why is it suddenly unfair for Trump to say something very similar about Hillary? On today's Morning Joe, discussing Trump's critique of Hillary, Tur claimed: "there's this veiled sexism they have been accused of, somebody that doesn't have the strength and stamina, somebody who should not be president."

That makes him equal opportunity because he also said that about Jeb.

Hillary is Low Energy. Watch how events she does and then how much down time she ha. For example, Tuesday night she was no where to be seen and was at home, probably asleep.

Anything republicans say is Racist, Sexist, Homophobic, Islamophobic, or any combination of numerous fabricated -ist or -phobic words.
Get used to it.
It's the Left's favorite argument, lacking any others.

Let's just simply compare Hillary Clinton to:

How does Clinton measure up to the others?

When Trump really goes after the criminal Clintoon, being called low energy will be the least of her worries!

Didn’t Trump say the same thing about Jeb?

Doesn't that prove the point?

I think if Hillary would change her dog food to HighPro or something she might perk up, and her coat might improve too.

They’re going to try to play the sexism card like they did in the NYS Senate race. It ain’t going to work this time. Trump has blown right through the PC BS this cycle.

Katy Tur is a disgusting left wing hack who calls herself a reporter.

Would it be sexist of me to suggest MSNBC commentator Ms Tur is low IQed for suggesting it was sexist to call Hillary low energy?

Next to MS Tur, Reverend Al has to be considered the resident intellectual on MSNBC

That’s nonsense and Katy knows it. She’s better more reasonable in her criticism if she wants face time with Trump. Or, she should think about Megyn’s journey after taking her cheap shots at Trump.

However, I think we’ve seen the end of Trump the annihilator.
