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

Posted on 08/07/2016 4:22:18 PM PDT by tcrlaf

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.”

I took his saying she is unhinged as code for she’s unhinged.

I take Cokie Roberts saying Trump was secretly saying something about rejecting Clinton for being a woman as Cokie Roberts confessing she is delusional, puts ideology before reality, or knows who her her masters are - or some combination of those three.

Sorry - correction - I meant to say the ad claims that TRUMP is a Russian agent.

Will, Paul Ryan, McConnell, Chris Christie and other Republicans be asked to disavow Trumps comments that "We Shouldn’t Elect a Woman"?

Cokie Roberts has always been on the fringe of the dark world, but the older she has gotten, she has descended into the middle of it—like all Democrats.

“Hmm, I interpreted it as code for “We shouldn’t elect an unhinged woman.”

I interpret it as “we shouldn’t elect an unhinged person”. Gender is irrelevant.

Ohh.., For Christ’s Freakin’ sake... How many Millennial Snowflakes will actually believe this crap?


Quite a few unfortunately. This is what they heard for most of their lives in classrooms large and small.

It’s JUST her opinion.

I learned a long time ago that opinions are like buttholes. Everyone has one, and they all stink. Roberts is no exception.

Yep, Cokie’s kind didn’t bother with code words to run down Sarah Palin.

The presstitutes really don’t even pretend anymore that they aren’t just pushing outrageous propaganda. Roberts sounds like the sexist one. Who would associate “unhinged” and “woman” unless she is a sexist? Otherwise it makes no sense, even as crazy, laughable propaganda.

This is mild compared to much of the manipulation they do, but can anyone really doubt at this point that the media is one of the greatest threats to the survival of this nation?

Now it’s the vast Russian conspiracy out to get her.

Hillary can see Russia under her bed.

This is coming from the same media that was saying last week that Trump was going to drop out.

It’s all bull!

Another MSM shill for Hillary. They have no credibility but pretend they do. The media is nothing but liberal brainwashing and power-grabbing and Hillary’s e-mails prove it.

Trump should say that it’s not that she’s a woman. It’s that she’s the wrong woman.

The “media” has been going off in all directions for the
past few days. I just don’t watch ‘em. I watch the weather;
but if they mention “global warming” again, I’m gonna find
some other way to get weather news.
