LOL -- 20% off your income, if you think that regardless of career choices, hours worked, etc., all people should make the same money, then sure.Tero wrote:
And, on what planet does the government make health decisions for women? The government certainly takes women-specific health issues much more seriously than men-specific health issues -- more attention, more mobilization, more funding, more research, etc.
And, frankly, Hillary will get nowhere with the typical "If I were a man, nobody would ever say that about me" nonsense. I heard a woman on CNN yesterday say that nobody would comment about a man's hair or physique -- Trump will never let that shit pass. He'll have the wit to point out that Trump has been criticized for his hair incessantly. And, not only his hair but his skin and skin color. And, he has even been criticized for probably having a small unit due to his small hands. Oh, right - nobody ever criticizes a man for things about their appearance and sexuality -- riiiiiiiiiggghhhht!.
That's one of the advantages Trump has against Hillary -- he has been so ill-treated in the media -- basically called a joke, a buffoon -- his name is mocked, being called Drumpf. He is called a failure, a fraud, a conman, with orange hair, a weird mouth, a world-class "comb-over" that looks ridiculous, orange skin, and all sorts of other nasty descriptors. Hillary, on the other hand, has traditionally been given the "woman treatment" - she's fierce! She's a fighter! She's soooo accomplished! She's sooooo smart! And, then they ignore her scandals, and the media never ever criticize her appearance.
That's what Trump means when he's talking about the woman card -- in the media, we here all the time that women are the ones whose appearance is criticized, but that never happens to men, who are automatically taken seriously. The reality is that men are criticized and mocked all the time - George Bush compared to a monkey in political cartoons for example -- the difference is that nobody feels sorry for a man when it happens.
