Hillary: A ‘very large portion’ of the US feels ‘uneasy’ about women seeking power

Hillary Clinton: A ‘Very Large Portion’ of the US Population Feels ‘Uneasy’ About Women Seeking Power | Mediaite
During a sit-down in Australia, Hillary Clinton reflected on what may have been responsible for her defeat in the 2016 election.
On Thursday, the twice-defeated presidential candidate sat with Julia Gillard, Australia’s first female prime minister, and spoke about sexism in politics. Clinton had a lot to say.
The former Secretary of State mentioned how men who run for office “come in all sizes and shapes” with “all kinds of hairstyles” and they go unmentioned because you’re “used to seeing men in these roles” and women are still “breaking glass ceilings.” She also invoked President Trump‘s attacks of women like Carly Fiorina and Megyn Kelly during the election for their appearances, which she insisted was a way for him to “undermine” women.
“There is still a very large proportion of the population that is uneasy with women in positions of leadership,” Clinton said, “and so the easiest way to kind of avoid having to look at someone on her merits is to dismiss her on her looks.”

I hope she lives long enough to see a Maggie Thatcher clone rise up and win in a landslide.

She said she wanted to leave the USA when Trump won. I wish she would.

Poor, innocent..Hillary.
She lost because she has a vagina, and mean Americans just don't want to vote for a woman to have power.
That corrupt count will never accept reality for what it is.. she was just an unpleasant politician , whose entire campaign consisted of "derr I have a pussy."

She keeps trying to equate the general public's dislike of her to dislike of all women. And she wonders why she's failed twice at running for President.

or
"Americans discriminate against people who hate their country!"
or
"Americans are biased against those who get rich off of their 'public service'."

There are tons and tons of women in the senate, congress, and governor houses.
She is a moron.

What is her angle for this international tour?
She is a Clinton so there is always an angle.
She’s always popping up overseas.
It can’t be as simple as enjoying her retirement by traveling internationally on someone else’s dime to show up at some conference or event.

What a tragedy it would have been for such a vile super criminal to become the first woman president. Women deserve a better representative.

We just don't like women who enable sexual predators.

I would vote for a woman if she presented ideas that were in line with my own beliefs and had the moral and emotional fortitude to carry out those ideas

I have on problem with women in power. Women are wonderful and awe-inspiring. They deal with so much and still chug on. They can handle pain most men cry over. They grow other humans inside their bodies, raise those children, handle family affairs, cook, clean, and always make sure those near anddear to them are well taken care of.
I don’t expect women to do the above, they just do it. I love women. I have no problem with them seeking power. I just have a problem with stupid people seeking power. If I’m not allowed to not vote for a woman candidate for public office because I think she is an idiot then frick this society.
