    According to Fox, you aren't allowed to sit down and have a beer if you are Warren. Because when she does it, she is being sexist and just pandering to the base.

    “Somebody tell me, why beer?” Faulker asked. “Why that beverage? Is that supposed to appeal to male voters? I’m just wondering. She’s playing the gender card, but I’m confused.

    Conservative commentator Lisa Boothe opined that Warren is “trying to be like ‘Hello, earthlings. I’m just like you’” so she can appear “relatable.”

    This doesn't necessarily apply to people here but I can see some validity in the way people react to people like Hillary, Warren and Pelosi.

    p insipid article, Fox is a bastion of hypocrisy but what people tend to have a visceral rejection of is artifice and Hillary was composed in toto of such. she was a milquetoast third way candidate under active FBI investigation with decades of baggage that got outflanked on the left, and even then was defeated solely because of the absurdity of the electoral college. there were many reasons voters rejected her beyond vagina! and even with those vagina! rejections she won 3 million more votes than Trump and received all of 50,000 fewer than Obama's 2012 total.

    all female candidates of course have to deal with running in a country with extant sexism (though also receive the benefit of an electorate that is primarily female), but as Obama proved in running in a country with extant racism such ostensibly deleterious identifying markers can be a net benefit when engaged with properly. to wit it was not so long ago Sarah Palin proved considerably more popular than McCain amongst the caveman conservatives who hate all ambitious women because she engaged with them culturally in a way John never could, and despite being an unqualified moron presented herself more honestly than Hillary ever has.

    Summary: morons appeal more to morons.

    The fact that this is such a striking label on Hillary itself is a pretty good indicator though. She isn't really that much better or worse in this regard than your typical politician, but she still has a much higher standard she needs to meet apparently.

    Btw some people were influenced by sexism =! she only lost because of her vagina.

    Just like Obama was held to a higher standard than any president before him (let's not even get into Trump here) women have that same barriers to deal with. It may be an obvious point (country is pretty damn sexist) but it's all I was saying.

    A Trump supporter was arrested at a rally for Warren in Iowa after he started a fist fight with attendees.

    Yeah all I know is shes that one congresswoman who traveled to some middle east country to meet with their leader for some reason. Seemed really odd.
