How about Sarah Palin? Look how viciously she was attacked by the Democrats. Lots of reprehensible, sexist put-downs. I can't explain it... other than Democrats must be a bunch of extreme misogynists!

Ahhh, no. It doesn't happen more on the right than the left. That's just your opinion.
Here's a FACT for you - exit polls in 2016 showed that among white females - which should have been her strongest demographic - Hillary Clinton lost by 10 percentage points to Donald Trump. And Hillary was smarter than Kamala and AOC combined.

Expect her to be a formidable political figure in the next few decades.
