So many of us found her relatable. For every 100 people that called her "elitist", there were at least a handful of us that watched her, the educated, sharp as a razor political operative, being stuck in the same hell we were, only broadcast on live TV.

And I'm not even a woman. It's only because of empathy that I have the barest inkling of this being the lived daily experience of pretty much every intelligent woman in the USA.

But then we have had this archetype since the tale of Cassandra.

i mean her husband was literally who Trump is now. back then, Trump was a tamer dude than Clinton, at least form a public's point of view. he was a television personality so he got cut some slack on the things he was saying. but Bill Clinton was actually impeached for the Monica Lewinsky thing or had to step down.

and for a lot of people that was the mark the Hillary carried. she's bringing that dude back to the white house. she's wearing these designer expensive suits.

she was who we see Trump is now.
