    They’ve attacked the fact she’s a childless woman plenty. Like if it mattered for her policies. I doubt they’ll straight up attack her for just being a woman much because they still want the conservative woman vote but they’ll sure as shit attack her for woman things.

      Hey, that lady hasn’t had kids. I haven’t had kids, but that’s ok because I’m a man. Fuck that bitch, she doesn’t have kids, she can’t be an american. /s

      They’ve attacked her because she doesn’t have any biological children, not because she’s a woman. Although they may be related, the attacks were very specifically against her, not having any biological children.

          They certainly make it as difficult as possible for game to adopt children.

          Stop trying to make this simple and black-and-white as they want you to think it is. They’re playing into their bullshit.

            What?

            Nobody has ever called out a male politician for not having kids. Attacking her for not having kids is literally exclusively about gender.

              You don’t know that. And if you’re claiming that’s a fact, then prove it.

              When you have to invent things just to make your point, you can’t have a very good point.

      I think what he is saying is sexism is at play much less than tribalism.

      I dont think any sane person can say that sexism is not at play at all.

        That’s fair enough. Really it’s a travesty at all that we have to rank what’s being attacked, especially when it has nothing to do with policy.
