Democratic Primaries
In reply to the discussion: Pete, what were you thinking? [View all]Just because someone takes "digs" at a female politician, does that automatically make the individual a misogynist???
Here's an op-ed by Alyssa Rosenberg in the WaPo titled "Hillary Clinton and I are done." She provides a litany of reasons why she no longer supported Clinton. Is Rosenberg a misogynist?

Here's another op-ed by Ruth Marcus that ends with "Clinton consistently disappoints." Does that make Ruth Marcus a misogynist?

In the words of Hillary Clinton herself, female voters in 2016 caved to ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should. Hillary attacking women! She even later apologized for that remark. Does that make Hillary a misogynist? She took a "dig" at women!
