Donald Trump interrupted Hillary Clinton 51 times, according to Vox.
Call it mansplaining, bropropriating, or Kanye at the VMAs, women are familiar with being interrupted by men when they speak.

It's a burden, and a waste of human talent and initiative every time a woman is squelched.

I cannot fathom why any woman would vote for that asshole. Hopefully it leads to a shitload of "underground" votes of women who don't want their husband to know what they do. Lot of men like Trump out there in the world, as I'm sure you ladies know from experience.
At least under Clinton, we can hope for some improvement, and hold an expectation that she will work for it. Under Trump, we could be set back by decades.

I'm so glad Hillary listened to me!
