You have no clue what you're talking about.


More women overall voted for Obama than they did Hillary. Indeed, a majority of women typically votes for the Dem in every election. This one saw no bump in percentage or turnout among women voters for Hillary.

More white women voted for Trump than they did Hillary.

Black women were where she did the best, but again underperformed Obama and you have a better argument that they voted for Hillary because she was a Democrat (as historically, north of 90% of black women vote for democrats).

You certainly can find women who were inspired to vote for a woman, but (a) those voters tend to be Dems and Obama voters anyways; and (b) you can also find plenty of women -- particularly southern or midwestern conservative wives -- who hate Hillary more than anyone. There is, believe it or not, no shortage of girl-on-girl misogyny in America. Particularly among those "traditional" women who don't like to see other women in roles they believe are supposed to be filled by men. You can disagree with this, but I can counter with real world examples even from my own family.
