(18,402 posts)I'm so sick of this hate and double standard. I'm still waiting for all the criticism and vitriol and analysis of blame for all the umpteen Republican male candidates who failed to beat Donald Trump in the primaries, and demands that they never show their faces in public again. And what about Sanders? Where's the book about how bad his campaign was that he lost by millions of votes to a woman? Why can't he just accept the fact that people just didn't like him? And why doesn't he just go away? Loser! Complainer! (blaming his loss on a woman DNC chair who apparently single-handedly caused millions of people not to vote for him.)
It's because they're men. When a man loses an election he should keep his dignity. When a woman loses (even though she got 3 million more votes), it's all because of her and the "bad" campaign she ran.
