RUDE ONE: Trump is devaluing Clinton because she's a woman. Let's call that "playing the dick card."

L.A. Quickie: The "Woman's Card" Is Utter Bullshit


Noted sexist Donald Trump has accused Hillary Clinton of "playing the woman's card" in the election. Last night, after his Cruz-crushing victories in five states, he jerksplained, "Well, I think the only card she has is the woman's card. She has nothing else going. And frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don't think she would get 5 percent of the vote. The only thing she has got going is the woman's card."

Think about that for a second. Or don't. Because, see, Hillary Clinton happens to be a woman. And if talking about women's experiences and her own life is playing some vaguely-defined card, then you're saying that a woman isn't allowed to view the world and politics from the perspective she's gonna have whether you like it or not. What you're saying is that only the male's (or, more precisely, the white male, since we could add "race card" to this) point of view is the valid one. In fancy scholar-speak, we call that "hegemony."

Clinton herself addressed it, saying, in essence, "Suck it, cockface": "Now, the other day Mr. Trump accused me of playing the, quote, 'woman card.' Well, if fighting for women's health care and paid family leave and equal pay is playing the woman's card, then deal me in." When a male Democrat talks about abortion rights or other issues, he's not accused of playing the woman's card. So what's the only thing there that's different about Clinton?

Yeah, she's a fuckin' woman. It ain't only her card. She owns the fucking deck. Let's stop this bullshit argument that because someone running doesn't see the country with a penis in her way, it's somehow a lesser perspective. And maybe someone should point out to Trump that a lot of people are voting for him because of his sex.

1. Trump is not presidential, never will be, right now he is entertaining, does not have the ability

To fire as president like he has on the reality shows. He needs to go away.

6. I thought Trump was playing the Asshole Card.

We've got a lot of assholes in this country, which is why things are so shitty, and Trump is appealing to them by deliberately being the biggest asshole in the race. It isn't easy against a natural-born asshole like Cruz, but Trump works harder at it.

9. Trump called in to Morning Joke this morning

and complained about Hillary yelling, like he doesn't? Of course no one on the show brought up him yelling.

10. "The only thing she has got going is the woman's card"

Really, Mr. Trump? Hillary Clinton has been an attorney, First Lady, U.S. Senator, and Secretary of State. She has spent her career in politics and government. What's your experience in politics? What is it, exactly, that qualifies you for the top elected office in the country?

I will give a shiny dime to the first reporter for the popular media who asks Trump about that.
