President Bill Clinton recently raised some eyebrows by suggesting what criteria would be involved in electing America’s first female President.
He thinks it’s less likely that his own party—the Democrats—will produce the first woman Commander-in-Chief, despite several attempts so far.
In a recent interview with CBS’ Tracy Smith, Clinton was asked if he thought America wasn’t ready for a female President. Because, ya know, the spectacularly unqualified Kamala Harris’s loss can only be explained by sexism. Or something.
“Maybe,” the former President replied.
Things grew a little more interesting when Clinton revealed that one party might be more prepared to elect a woman than the other.
Bill Clinton continues to passively destroy Kamala:
He says it would be easier for a “Conservative Republican woman” to become President than a Democrat…

Clinton Says Republican Woman Has Best Chance To Become First President
When further pressed on the matter, Clinton suggested that “cultural battles” were making it hard for a woman to get elected. But he added that one particular party would have an easier time with it.
“Well, I think all these cultural battles that we’re fighting make it harder in some ways for a woman to run,” he said.
“So, you think it has more to do with party than gender?” Smith asked.
“No,” Clinton replied. “Although I think it would probably be easier for a conservative Republican woman to win.”
His comments seem to be some sort of acknowledgment that the weird culture wars coming from the left are losing to, say, the appeal of a normal woman.
“I still think we’ll have a female president pretty soon,” he added.

Consider The Source
One has to consider the source of this prediction. It’s a guy who views women through a specific prism. And lest you think that’s dulled with age, think again.
Clinton was practically drooling over former Arizona Senate Republican candidate Kari Lake. He complimented her by calling Lake “physically attractive” and wondered about her lying “prostrate before the master.”
No, I’m not kidding.

Still, it seems like Clinton is onto something. The first woman President is far more likely to come from the Republican party than it is to come from a party that doesn’t even know what a woman is – or worse, likes to pretend men are women.
