Cokie Roberts: Trump Calling Clinton Unhinged Is Code for "We Shouldn’t Elect a Woman"
Mediaite ^ | 8-7-2016 | Josh Feldman

As far as ABC’s Cokie Roberts is concerned, Donald Trump attacking Hillary Clinton as “unhinged” is basically a gendered attack.

Trump has recently taken to calling Clinton “unhinged” and “unbalanced,” implying she’s “not all there.”

On ABC’s This Week this morning, Sara Fagen said that’s not the issue people have with Clinton, so that won’t be a particularly helpful line of attack.

Then Roberts said, “‘Unhinged’ and ‘she doesn’t look presidential’ is totally code for ‘we shouldn’t elect a woman.’ That’s exactly what that is.”

Many Democrats believe that Hillary is unhinged, and know that she is a liar but, you can find those Democrats stating so publicly only by the use of a microscope.

So, where do you get a list of these ‘code-words’?

I seem to be out-of-date and lacking on this. Are there 3,000 such words? And if you are Latino and using a code-word.....is it the same as a white trailer-trash gal using it?

Ah, I see that instead of trying to understand what I was saying you preferred to interpret it as a micro-aggression towards you. It must be hard to go through life like that.
