She's attempting to suggest that Trump's platform was one that was detrimental to the rights of women and dictated things to them rather than give them a voice. 

Except last I checked... women can like strong economies, jobs, crackdowns on drugs and crime, safer borders, and tax cuts just as much as men. Those aren't gender issues.

Meanwhile Clinton has a husband who was getting BJs in the oval office, and her right hand woman had a husband sending dick pics to underage girls. So it's not like they were exactly killing it in the empowering women category either.

That tape doesn't make Trump's entire political platform inherently anti-women's interests. Nor does having a vagina make Clinton's entire platform inherently pro-women. When you're working in a system where you only really get two choices with a realistic chance of winning, neither one is going to be 100% in your interests. (If you think they are, you're likely conforming your interests to their stances, instead.) So you choose which one has more of your interests in mind. So saying that any woman who voted against her own interests by voting for Trump, is some sexist BS that would never fly the other way around, regardless how you try and spin it.
