CNN Commentator on Hillary’s High Unfavorables: ‘A Lot of This is Sexism’

Story here. Excerpt:

'CNN political commentator and NY1 host Errol Louis said during a Monday morning discussion that the reason Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has such high unfavorability numbers in most polls was because of unconscious sexism on the part of respondents.

New Day host Chris Cuomo asked Louis about a recent Wall Street Journal/NBC poll that found that even among Democrats, Clinton had a 56% unfavorable rating. “Let me suggest, because some of her strategists have said this kind of quietly, it’s not really a big thing on this campaign trail: a lot of this is sexism,” he responded

“It’s buried so deep that people just say, ‘I don’t trust her, she doesn’t keep her word,’” he said. “And then you turn it around and say, ‘What politician does?’”'

For the brief time she was senator, the Hildebeast did squat for NY. She was too busy hob-knobbing, speechifying-for-pay and attending parties and luncheons in DC or NYC to be bothered with her constituents (supposed) in upstate, who are the people the jr. sen. from NY is supposed to focus on. Instead, she ignored them in favor of using the office as a carpet-bagger's stepping-stone to bigger things.

I predict that tomorrow the good ppl of NY will hand The Hildebeast her political backside. I look forward to it.

I agre with the CNN Commentator.

Her numbers are due to sexism.

Sexism: discrimination based on sex

SHE is the one discriminating by hollering about a war on women when the only war waged was the war Bill waged on her when he raped an intern, and she overlooked it, and turned her vilifying eye against all men.

Yes, she is sexist.

And the polls are showing that decent Americans see this.

Let any candidate constantly criticize, mock and even subtly threaten half the population of an entire country, while proclaiming the other half is "disadvantaged", when they are clearly not, and what more can that candidate expect?
If a male presidential candidate were to say even a fraction of the negative things about women that Hilary Clinton has, and does about men, the American population, (both women & men) as a whole would demand he be taken out of the race. And rightfully so.
Hilary Clinton has the golden p***y pass, however. She can malign and attack half her voting demographic, and no one bats an eye.
There's the real sexism, right there.
