Conservative or 'Handmaiden to the Patriarchy’? Same Thing According to Hillary Clinton

Description

With one broad stroke, Hillary Clinton called all conservative women handmaidens during remarks at an event in New York City earlier this month. 


 


"Well, first of all, don’t be a handmaiden to the patriarchy, which kind of eliminates every woman on the other side of the aisle, except for very few," Clinton said when asked what advice she would give to the first female president. 


 


Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, and former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wy., are among the “few” Republican women who don't bow down to the patriarchy, according to Clinton. 


 


Clinton made the comment during a discussion at New York City's 92nd Street Y on May 1, adding that the U.S. electing a female president is “so much harder than it should be.” 


 


“If a woman runs who I think would be a good president, as I thought Kamala Harris would be and as I knew I would be, I will support that woman,” Clinton said. 


 


Clinton’s comments reveal a bizarre strategy on the political left – bash anyone who thinks differently than I do, and then play the victim and act surprised when the same people you berated don’t support you. 


 


Speaking as conservative women who have worked hard to earn countless opportunities from male and female bosses, who also happen to be conservative, it's both insulting and laughable to call women who believe in traditional values and protecting the unborn “handmaiden to the patriarchy.” 


 


On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” we discuss our “oppression” as conservative women and take time to celebrate the women who, unlike Clinton, are acting as a powerful voice for all women, regardless of political views. 


 


Also on today’s show, days away from Memorial Day, the Trump administration has announced an investigation into the disastrous fall of Afghanistan and a “Golden Dome” to protect against missile attacks. 


 


Plus, we breakdown some of the latest pop culture news as singer Lorde equates ditching birth control as “right wing.” And Trump says Taylor Swift is no longer hot. Is he right?
