It turns out there is something worse than a misogynist gay man, and that’s a misogynist Republican presidential candidate. Just days after her daughter Chelsea accused Donald Trump of “sad, misogynistic, sexist rhetoric,” a powerful new Clinton ad called “Mirrors” brilliantly captures how pigheadedly pervasive his hatred for women is — simply by showcasing some of the rhetoric he’s used on the campaign trail: “She’s a slob;” “she ate like a pig;” “fat ugly face;” and “a person who is flat-chested; it’s very hard for them to be a ten” are just a few recent examples of his bizarrely hateful rhetoric. Awfully judgmental for a sentient tub of pumpkin cream cheese.

Only 30 seconds in length, the new Clinton ad undoubtedly packs quite a punch. Unfortunately, it’s probably time to forgo the attack ads altogether, and just put Hillary and Trump in a boxing ring so she can punch him in the face.
Watch the new Clinton ad below:
How about we take this to the next level?

“Marriage is a sacred bond between a man and a woman”-Hillary Clinton.
Sad that a gay site will completely look past that.

Anyone else having posts weirdly vanish without even triggering the autoflag? I’ve noticed the IOS reader is indicated in the bar simultaneously. Happens every few weeks. Maybe it’s just my end.

@VampDC: Not only that but look how long it took her to open her mouth about what happened in Orlando, Fl at the Pace disco massacre. Once again she let this useless, ignorant-has-no-business-in-that-Oval-office b–tard beat her to publicly condemning that tragedy. Talk about some one who feels entitled to a job these two mistakes we have to chose from are it.
njwest
@VampDC: Alternatively, her views have progressed from that point. It’s easy to say ‘it was a different time,’ but she is consistently fighting for and promoting LGBT rights now and in recent years. It doesn’t erase her past hateful words, but honestly in a two-party race between her and Trump (who openly associates with anti-gay groups even now), it’s easy to see why one of them should get the support of this site.

The perception that Trump objectifies women doesn’t bother me. He might not even respect them as much as he does men—that doesn’t bother me, either.
What bothers me is that Hillary Clinton has nothing but disdain and contempt for anyone who isn’t “with” her, even going as far as calling Republicans her “enemy” while labeling Trump supporters “deplorable.”
That’s a hell of a lot more polarizing than saying someone eats like a pig.
ErikO
@VampDC: Very true, she’s not any sort of ally or friend to LGBT people and she still does not really support us or accept same sex marriage but just pretends to.
Kieran
Check out Hillary’s NEW ad, which unlike her prior ones is all about getting super offended over how brashly Trump speaks!

@ErikO: “Very true, she’s not any sort of ally or friend to LGBT people and she still does not really support us or accept same sex marriage but just pretends to.”
Proof? Recent Clinton quotes? Of course not. Just like most regressives you feel that your imagination magically transforms reality. Fact is, it does not.
Clinton has evolved in her feelings towards LGBT people just as the democratic party has and just as the American people mostly continue to do.
Trump specifically intends to do what he can to undermine marriage equality, just as his party requires (and just as they continually try to do with reproductive choice or any other social progress). Trump’s only gesture towards the LGBT community is to promise protection against a thus far fictitious threat he has made up out of his (and his followers’) distaste for non-christians. LOOK AT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY PLATFORM BEFORE YOU MAKE THE LUDICROUS CLAIM THAT ANY OF THEIR CANDIDATES SUPPORT LGBT ENFRANCHISEMENT OR HAVE ACTUAL RESPECT FOR US. Stop making crap up and then thinking it is real. Only stupid people do that.

@VampDC: “Marriage is a sacred bond between a man and a woman”-Donald trump.
By your logic it’s sad gays would overlook that as well.
dwes09
@Mo Bro: “That’s a hell of a lot more polarizing than saying someone eats like a pig.”
Less polarizing to you because admittedly you care little for women as humans. However to thoughtful, community oriented people Trump’s disrespect and contempt (well documented by his statements and actions at his rallies) is very arguably worse than Clinton’s accurate assessment of those to whom Trump addresses his thinly veiled subtext.
Trump refers to the outmoded stereotypes for women, latins, blacks and so on and clearly you buy into that. He obviously panders and clearly you are taken in. Clinton need only refer to his actions and you are outraged by her reference to the actual reality of what Trump is. It is amazing to me how many Americans, even those who seem articulate, have willingly flushed their critical thinking abilities and attachment to reality down the toilet.
Atldeuce
@dwes09: Bravo. These other respondents seem like brainwashed ventriloquist’s dummies. Fully explains why Trump has supporters and why not everyone denounced extremists and dictators before WWII. It’s all about the bluster and show. Never mind the outright lies, lack of basic knowledge to govern, misogyny, racism, bigotry and unwilliness to share information with the public so that we can make informed decisions.
I get being unhappy with politicians, but they were elected by small percentages of voters with their own agendas. They should stop whining about the people they allowed to be elected. They would rather have Trump appoint more Supreme Court Justices who want to get in their bedrooms and wombs?
Funny too that all of these gun rights activists support Trump’s “stop and frisk laws”. In open carry states aren’t you supposed to be able to strap your guns on your hips and go to Walmart? Why isn’t the NRA supporting arming all African Americans so that they can protect themselves? Chirp, chirp.
Mo Bro
@Atldeuce:
Re: your comment that the NRA should arm African-Americans and the “chirp, chirp” such a proposition would theoretically result in . . .
Um, it’s because they (angry blacks) are currently trying to level Charlotte, and arming them (as well anyone those with a criminal background) would be as sensible as arming Jesus freaks at a gay-pride parade . . . or gay liberals at a church barbeque . . . the very thought is dumb, dumb, dumb.
Have you no common sense at all?

Trump will have the hateful Heritage Foundation vetting their Supreme Court justices. They’ll put the grim in Pilgrim. Don’t fall for it. It’s all about the Supreme Court.
Brian
All that Trump has to do is to show a clip of Hillary’s husband stating “I did not have sex with that woman” followed by a clip of Hillary stating “I’m not going to stand by my man like some Tammy Wynette”.
It will perfectly encapsulate Hillary’s hypocrisy, mendacity and misogyny.
Ander
The next president will either be Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump.
That president will nominate federal and Supreme Court Justices.
Donald Trump has made clear that he opposes GLBT rights, and has aligned himself with those who wish to crimilize the existence of gay folk. That is his current position. That is also the position and the stated platform of the GOP.
Hillary Clinton supports LGBT equality. That is her position.
OzJosh
@VampDC: Note how Trump supporters never respond to a damning criticism of their hero with any kind of direct defence. This is almost always because their is none. Their only tactic is to throw another jibe at Hilary, and never mind that it is unrelated, irrelevant, factually dodgy, or just plain beside the point. The only thing this proves is that most of them are not even capable of logical, joined-up thinking.
He BGB
What I usually see is when anyone makes fun of Trump he usually attacks them in a personal way like children do. With women it’s usually about their appearance. The first time I remember it happening was watching Rosie on The View throw her hair over in a pseudo combover, and talk like him when he was dealing with a beauty pageant he owned. Then he attacked Rosie on her weight. From then on that’s how he attacked women who made fun of him. I wonder what his wives and daughters think about it. Of course there’s not a fat one or an odd looking one in the bunch. All wives were pageant winners or ex models (I use the word loosely for his latest),so they probably look the other way (into a mirror). Marla Maples’ daughter with him isn’t very pretty so he doesn’t bring her out or talk about her as much as the “pretty” one.
DCguy
Ok this is getting ridiculous.
Hey, Right wing troll, if you are going to use all of your screenames to post anti-lgbt, pro-Trump, anti-Clinton stuff, try to not have them all appear 2 minutes apart from each other. You are lousy at Trolling dude.
The one Log Cabin Troll certainly was busy around 12 noon wasn’t he?

@Mo Bro: But… the NRA’s position is that ANYONE can arm themselves for any reason. Or does the NRA say that’s only for white people?

@Heywood Jablowme:
Yes, defending censorship like a good Leftist.
Does it feel good to defend censorship?
Heywood Jablowme
@Alistair Wiseman: It’s a private website. They can “censor” whatever they want.
Heywood Jablowme
@Alistair Wiseman: It’s only censorship if the government does it.
Hey, phony, do you ever want to answer my questions to you re: abortion? I’ll try again: If you make abortion illegal again, what penalty do you want for the doctor/provider? A life sentence? A death sentence (because it’s supposedly “murder”)? Twenty years? Ten years? What, exactly?
And since you guys are now pretending that the woman is merely a “victim” so you don’t want any penalty at all for her, will you allow a woman to abort with a coathanger without going to prison? (If she survives.)
Or do you think abortions will somehow magically stop happening when they’re illegal? Ronald Reagan didn’t think so when he legalized abortion in CA in 1967. He legalized them because they were happening anyway but in dangerous ways.
You’re the one who’s always bringing up abortion out of the blue.
Bob LaBlah
@Alistair Wiseman: The people over at Towleroad.com are more your type. I was banned from that site after I kept questioning as to why no one was calling George Zimmerman a WIMP for not being able to PHYSICALLY fight Trevon Martin, who was HALF his size. Considering the fracases he has had with women since then he sounds like a typical sorry ass faggot hiding behind a gun if you asked me.
I doubt if YOU would get banned off of that site but I sure as hell was and not one damn do I give because I stand with what I said. And I am a member of the NRA.
Heywood Jablowme
@Bob LaBlah: That seems like a strange reason to ban you, even if you were obsessive about it – especially since they use Disqus comments and not a proprietary system like Queerty does.
(But why do you call Zimmerman the f-word? Let’s not claim him for our side!)
Bob LaBlah
@Heywood Jablowme: Things change in three years. Maybe they were using it now but they weren’t then. I do not sign in using ANY third party regardless of what site it is.
Bob LaBlah
@Heywood Jablowme: The reason why I called him that was because of his “bravado”. If you are familiar with the case it was Zimmerman who decided to play judge, jury and executioner. He FOLLOWED that kid after being told not to do so by the police department. He, Zimmerman, decides to detain the kid with NO police training what so ever. The kid, Treyvon, told him to fuck off and rightly so. Zimmerman passed the first “lick” in my opinion by grabbing the kid and the kid knocked the crap out of him. Clearly not knowing any self defense techniques except reach for his gun Mr. Self Righteous pulls it out and shoots the kid. All he had to do was walk away after getting the ass beating he asked for but oh no, not him.
People like him give those who do have conceal carry a bad name and well as a black eye to the NRA when they stand up for our rights.
Mo Bro
@Heywood Jablowme: You and I both know that’s a stupid, distracting question. Facts, Heywood, facts.
Alistair Wiseman
@Heywood Jablowme:
You stated, “It’s only censorship if the government does it.”
Really? Not according to Merriam-Webster Dictionary:
“Censorship is the suppression of free speech, public communication or other information which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient as determined by governments, MEDIA OUTLETS, AUTHORITIES or OTHER GROUPS or INSTITUTIONS.” [emphasis mine]
Also:
“Internet censorship is control or suppression of the publishing or accessing of information on the Internet. It may be carried out by governments or by PRIVATE ORGANIZATIONS either at the behest of government or on their own initiative.” [emphasis mine]
Does it make you feel good to censor the free speech of others? Please tell me what other fascist and totalit@rian practices do you defend, advocate and encourage?
Alistair Wiseman
@Bob LaBlah:
You stated, “He FOLLOWED that kid after being told not to do so by the police department.”
That is absolutely NOT true. It is what the media CONSTANTLY reported, but is not true and can be heard on the 911 tape. And I’m a little surprised you, of all people, fell for it.
Here’s the transcript of the call:
Zimmerman: Shit, he’s running.
Dispatcher: He’s running? Which way is he running?
[Sound of car door opening.]
Zimmerman: [Grunts.] Down towards the other entrance of the neighborhood.
[Sound of car door closing.]
Dispatcher: OK, and which entrance is that he’s heading towards.
Zimmerman: The back entrance. . . . [mutters] Fucking punks [puddles?].
[Wind/breathing noise.]
Dispatcher: Are you following him?
Zimmerman: Yeah.
Dispatcher: OK, we don’t need you to do that.
Zimmerman: OK.
From the linked article below:
Who the aggressor was that fateful night is the central — and most unanswerable — question of the case. Those who fault Zimmerman have latched on to this back-and-forth with Sean Noffke, the operator, as proof that Zimmerman defied a direct police order.
Not so. Noffke testified on the first day of the jury trial that it is dispatchers’ policy not to give orders to callers. “We’re directly liable if we give a direct order,” he explained. “We always try to give general basic .?.?. not commands, just suggestions.” So, “We don’t need you to do that” is different than a more direct “Don’t do that.”
Under cross-examination, Noffke added more context to his “suggestion” when asked whether his requests for updates on what Martin was doing encouraged Zimmerman to follow the unarmed 17-year-old. “It’s best to avoid any kind of confrontation, to just get away from the situation,” Noffke said.
This was a mere suggestion by a 911 operator, not the police department and Zimmerman was not in the car at the time of the comment “we don’t need you to do that.”

@Alistair Wiseman: ??? – I’m not the one preventing you from posting here. (If anyone is.) Nor even trying to. In fact I asked you specifically to answer a few questions and you ignored them AGAIN! Apparently you’re never going to answer them because any answer you could possibly give would make you look foolish?
Anyway my REAL theory regarding Queerty is that their “bot” system is set up to reject certain mysteriously *verboten* words that you, perhaps inadvertently, keep using, and therefore the whole post gets rejected. That’s happened to me too! So you can stop being so paranoid and faux-aggrieved, and tying me to fasc 1sts and commun 1sts etc. (which apparently have the same definition in your right-wing dictionary, as Stephen Colbert has said).
Or maybe it’s more like my other, sarcastic theory: maybe Queerty just hates you? I dunno, but I doubt Queerty feels shamed by your continual ADMONITIONS IN ALL CAPS!

Take your lies and dishonesty and go troll someone else. Be gone.
Alistair Wiseman
@Bob LaBlah:
You’re funny Bob. No, I’ve never been in the Israeli army. Why?
By the way, I see you have made up your mind regarding the Zimmerman case regardless of what was discovered during the trial. If you want in depth analysis regarding that case, check out a little blog site called http://www.theconservativetreehouse.com, they did some amazing work regarding this unfortunate incident.
Bob LaBlah
@Alistair Wiseman: Does this report say what happened from beginning to end? The reason why I asked is your quotes do not start at the beginning when the two made eye contact. It seems very possible the kid ran because Zimmerman pointed a gun at him or flashed that gun with a menacing look in his eye and the kid took off running. No one is around to speak for Treyvon and I sure as hell do NOT believe Zimmerman. Not ONE word.
The antics of this guy since this incident prove my point as to his sincerity. And by the way, you know damn well why I asked if you were in the Israeli military. You seem to have as much regard for the kid (Treyvon) as an armed Israeli soldier/civilian patrol would chasing after a group of kids where only ONE of them threw a rock at him/them. Yes, thats just what you sound like.
Alistair Wiseman
@Bob LaBlah:
I know damn well? Actually, I didn’t – I thought you were going to say something else.
What I have regard for are facts. And the facts of the case, even after the federal government got involved and did their damnedest to string him up on federal charges, did support their narrative. What does that tell you when the full force of the federal government is coming down on you and they still couldn’t get a conviction?
Bob, I believe you are coming from a good place about this issue, but you are wrong and are not aware of the details of this case.
If facts make me sound like an Israeli soldier, then – shalom.
Bob LaBlah
@Alistair Wiseman: What happened in this case was simple: What was put on trial was the Stand Your Ground law Florida has. As I said, Treyvon was not alive to testify nor had anyone to testify for him as to what happened and I do NOT believe Zimmerman at all. How the hell could you drive a car, catch up to the kid and are panting and sounding like you are out of breath? He had to have had SOME type of physical contact in one way or the other. Zimmerman sure as hell does not look the type who was out jogging. He is a liar and I am hoping to hear he too finds the same fate as Treyvon.
The state of Florida has TOO many Cubans running it who don’t particularly care for blacks nor mulattos. Zimmermans fat ass is classified as white. Its just that simple and you know it.
Alistair Wiseman
@Bob LaBlah:

@Alistair Wiseman: Yes it HAS happened to me too, and AS I SAID, it may not be malignant, or intentional, or done by any human actor at all. It’s more likely some quirk of the automatic, robotic, computerized system. It would be informative to have a list of what exactly Queerty’s forbidden words are – I’d agree with you on that – but unlike you I try not to freak out about it since I have a life outside this site.
When it does happen to me, okay I’m annoyed, but not paranoid about it like you are. Nor do I jump to the conclusion that I’m somehow being “censored.” So stop being so paranoid and faux-aggrieved. Although I realize you wingnuts always need to feel like the “victim.” Poor baby!
And are you EVER going to answer my questions about abortion? You’re the one who brought it up, and you keep changing the subject every time. You’re such a weasel.
