Not only the sexist shit where Mike Pence gets a pass for the same vote she cast, but no pass for her. I kept wondering during the whole Melania thing, what would have happened if Hillary had done that? She would have been CRUCIFIED.

I think it's because Hillary Clinton has the nerve NOT to know "her proper place" - which is: stay home, walk two steps behind your man, keep your mouth shut, and your legs open. I think they view her as "Mrs. Who-the-hell-does-she-think-she-is".

It's a high-tech witch burning, for absolute sure. In the 21st Century no less.
