Sexism and Sabotage: A Hillary Supporter's Rude Awakening

By Amanda Carpenter

In her new book, 'Sexism and Sabotage: A Hillary Supporter's Rude Awakening,' Amanda Carpenter argues that the 2016 presidential election was not simply a matter of Clinton losing to a more qualified opponent. Rather, she contends, Clinton was the victim of a concerted effort by misogynists to undermine her candidacy. Carpenter draws on her own experiences as a Clinton supporter to provide a firsthand account of the sexism that Clinton faced, from the jokes about her appearance to the claims that she was not "likeable" enough to be president.

Carpenter also documents the ways in which Clinton's campaign was sabotaged by her own party. She argues that the Democratic National Committee (DNC) favored Clinton's opponent, Bernie Sanders, and that DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz actively worked to undermine Clinton's campaign. Carpenter also discusses the role that the media played in amplifying sexism against Clinton, arguing that many news outlets were complicit in perpetuating the narrative that Clinton was not a viable candidate.

'Sexism and Sabotage' is a timely and important book that sheds light on the sexism that women face in politics. Carpenter's firsthand account of the 2016 election provides a valuable perspective on the challenges that women face when they seek to run for office. The book is also a reminder that sexism is not just a problem for women in politics; it is a problem for all women.
