What are the top two reasons why Republicans hate Hillary Clinton??

[kentuck]

I have long believed that they cannot tell you why they hate her so much?

They have been programmed to hate. That is all they really know about Hillary Clinton.

"Well, she's a liar", they might say? But no one running for President has ever lied as much as Donald Trump.

"Well, she's crooked", they might say? But is anyone more crooked than the present occupant in the White House?

Why do they hate Hillary so much?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. She's a woman, for starters.

And she's a Democrat.

Those two reasons are enough for them.

[PJMcK]

3. The Velveteen Ocelot nails it... again! (n/t)

[Soxfan58]

7. She's a smart woman

Republican woman are jealous of her. Republican men fear her.

[L. Coyote]

25. She's a woman and smarter than they are.

Every damn one of them!

[Doreen]

26. My first thought also.

2. Vladimir putin hates her,

and they grovel to the Russians.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. I think that's why Trump hates her (aside from the fact that she's a woman).

The GOP, as an organization, has hated her long before Trump came on the scene.

5. This has also been a mystery to me n/m

[Doodley]

6. A woman, a Democrat, wife of Bill Clinton

She was about the most popular politician in America just a few years ago. Her approval was in the 60s from 2009 to 2013, but the Republicans and Trump were allowed to redefine her as corrupt and incompetent with little pushback.

8. It started in Arkansas when she kept working under her maiden name.

How dare she !
Also, "east coast liberal with big fancy east coast lberal ideals."

Bad woman, bad woman. Down girl, down girl, Know your place !

[Cuthbert Allgood]

9. 1. X chromosome 2. the other X chromosome

The rest is field dressing.

[The Genealogist]

10. She's a highly accomplished woman.

They despise her for that. Pure and simple. They can't hold a handle to her. She's have been a damned good president. Damn these wingnut fascist cheaters!

[pangaia]

12. They can't hold a "candle" to her.

Sorry, it's just me... I can't stand slow drivers in the left lane either.

[The Genealogist]

19. I am terrible at typing on a tablet!!

[pangaia]

20. :)))

better than I am....


Google spell correct goes nuts with me,,,

[spanone]

11. She's a Woman and she's a Clinton.

[Coventina]

13. That's exactly what I was going to say. n/t

[Madam45for2923]

14. In the 1990's they saw her and Bill as 60's hippies and from a lower class.

[phleshdef]

15. Reason #1 - Hillary, Reason #2 - Clinton

[Aristus]

16. Her ovaries.

That's all. Right there. The rest is just spittle-flecked hot air...

[guillaumeb]

17. She is a female. And a Democrat. eom

[mcar]

18. She's "that woman"

As the Rs referred to her in the 90s.

She's a Democrat.

[aikoaiko]

21. I'm pretty sure the feeling is mutual.

[Garrett78]

22. An article written last year focuses on evangelical hatred for Hillary:

"The Deep Disgust for Hillary Clinton"

[Lil Missy]

23. Democrat, woman.

[oasis]

24. Hillary saved BC's presidency by not abandoning him during the Monica

situation. As a result, Bill's positive approval numbers remained solid. Otherwise he would have been removed from office through the impeachment process.

Her standing by Bill was key. She robbed conservatives of a Democratic icon scalp.

[Skittles]

27. she is a female and she is a Democrat

and they only need one reason

[sheshe2]

28. She is a woman and a Democrat...

They know that she is more capable, qualified and intelligent than they could every think to be. She out shines them and they can't handle that fact.

[klook]

29. Rodham.

I’ve been saying it for years. “Hillary Rodham Clinton”’affirms her individuality and independence.

The very idea of an independent, brilliant, progressive woman — not to mention the more intelligent spouse of a politician who got the best of them twice — sticks in their craw. Republicans have a seething, white-hot hatred for both Bill and Hillary, but they reserve most of their bile and froth for her.

[Tribalceltic]

30. Because they were told to

She has frightened every rethuglican since her husband was elected. They are just scared of her , and more since she won last year.

[bobbieinok]

31. She was the first nationally prominent independent woman

She absolutely drove them crazy in the 92 campign and then Bill's presidency. She was/is smart and they couldn't/can't shut her up.

The GOP did intense research on possible 92 democratic candidates (see The Hunting of the President).

Her independence and strength made her a potential role model for girls and women. She was/is therefore a major threat to their patriarchial world view and their power and dominance.

Destroy her ajnd/or her reputation and you eliminate a major threat snd send a strong warning to all girls and women who might see her as a role model.

32. Why do they hate Hillary so much?

Because trump and rightwing media told them to think that way. and being obedient little haters that they are they all developed an addiction to the emotion of hate for Hillary.
