Anyone who denies that sexism played any role at all, even a very small one, in Clinton's loss is deluding themselves. The narratives that exist about Hillary Clinton wouldn't exist to the same extent for Hank Clinton. Republicans would have disliked Hank Clinton, since he would still have a (D) next to his name, but we probably wouldn't hear cries of "lock him up!" or "Trump that... asshole?" Perhaps a majority of Donald Trump voters would vote for Donna Trump in a general election, but that just means that partisan loyalty is an even stronger force than sexism. Donna Trump wouldn't have made it anywhere in a Republican primary, though, since many people would be saying, "God, she's an abrasive, b*tchy, bossy, shrill, whiny little c***."
-Hillary's being a woman was
literally Her only widely agreed-upon asset as a candidate in public opinion polls. Enough with the revisionist BS. I'm nearly certain she would have lost the popular vote had she been a man.
We would very much hear cries of "lock him up". Hank Clinton would look like even more a scoundrel than HRC with that email server matter (the most covered story of the campaign).
Donald Trump would easily have won had he been a woman. He would almost certainly have won the popular vote, as well.
Was sexism responsible for Obama's '08 primary victory, as well?
Sexism did not play any role at all in Clinton's loss. Corporate feminist BS played a huge role in Her popular vote win. Remember, a majority of voters are women.
