During a May 1 discussion at New York City’s 92nd Street Y, Hillary Clinton made a controversial remark about Republican women, suggesting that most would serve as “handmaidens to the patriarchy” if elected president.
She excluded only a few, such as Senator Lisa Murkowski and former Rep. Liz Cheney, whom she praised for opposing Donald Trump. Clinton’s comments drew backlash, with critics likening them to her 2016 “basket of deplorables” remark.
She also voiced support for Kamala Harris and emphasized the challenges women face in presidential politics. The discussion has reignited debate over gender, party loyalty, and Clinton’s ongoing influence in political discourse.
