All the data we have from fact checking sites has her truth vs. lie ratio as far better than almost any other politician. When politifact’s numbers were running around a few months ago, it was her and Bernie neck and neck at the top and then a huge valley between them and all the Republicans. So yeah....she’s

It’s like men hate her for even trying, and women hate her for being good at it.

Well said! They’re clutching at straws with the “likability” or “personality” arguments— because it’s all they have left. It’s the last layer of lies they have covering the base kernel of “because she’s a woman”.

“What the GOP is doing isn’t just attacking Clinton. It’s a wide shotgun spray that damages every trusted institution in America and says that it’s all worthless. It says that information itself is bad, because it doesn’t explain the way you feel about candidates.”

I’m in. I’m a liberal pragmatist. She will get shit done. No doubt about it. Plus, I have always liked her. But that’s not the point, to be honest.

Me too. I'm a Mellinial WOC the amount of people who have asked me to qualify my appreciation and love for her is astounding. I've always loved her, I've never expected her to be perfect but she has always been someone aspirational to me. I'm actually reconsidering law school because little kid me wanted to go because

People hate Hillary because she doesn’t act passive and “ladylike” and “know her place”. Same reason they hate Barack Obama. They’re both “uppity”.

This article is so infuriating! Do people honestly not hear the double standards in their own statements? The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

Uh, I’m pretty sure the reason is because Hillary is a woman, and so the assumption is that if we’re expected to vote for her, we have to like her. Nobody is asking if Donald Trump is likable. Nobody asked that question at all in the previous elections, except in roundabout ways like how they'd want to have a beer

THIS!!!! I know so many “conservative” “Christians” who are apoplectic that she and Bill worked it out. With no sense of irony whatsoever.

I know! But my point is that when discussing it, people are far more likely to use “likability” when referring to Hillary.

I need to form a support group for people who have always liked and related to Hillary, and therefore in this election feel like outcasts.

For every 10 good things that Hillary has done there are 0 good things Trump has done.

Systemic misogyny, what do you know!

It’s a deeply disturbing confluence of low-information voters and the genuinely paranoid/unhinged.

“It has made it hard to have any discussion about her at all.”

For every actually controversial or bad thing Clinton’s done, there’s 10 other completely fabricated Republican attacks. It has made it hard to either compliment or criticize her. It has made it hard to have any discussion about her at all. The only thing the general public is left with is distaste and distrust for

Only with Hillary do we talk about her being “likable”. With Trump, it’s approval ratings and all that crap, but for soooooooooome reason, with Hillary, that becomes whether she’s likable. Or trustworthy, but that’s a whole other kettle of fish that doesn’t really pertain to the point I am making.

ugh, cue the people going “but she reminds me of a mean school teacher!”
