Ah, yes. After Hillary Clinton lost the U.S. Presidential Election to Donald Trump, she made her graceful and humble speech to the country, telling everyone to come together as one, regardless of who the winner was. This was of course the day after, as opposed to immediately, due to "being too upset from the loss". Yeah, because THAT sounds someone who's strong enough to run AN ENTIRE COUNTRY!

ANYWAYS…

During her speech, she made a comment about the "glass ceiling". Yes, she was referring to a female becoming President of the United States, but the argument is still a tired, old feminist claim about how women and minorities are SOMEHOW IN THIS DAY AND AGE prevented from raising to or above standards that were previously achieved by others. More information on it here:

Little did she know (or care to know, for that matter) that the following 11 women set milestones (not necessarily achievements, but milestones; big difference) in the United States Government during the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election:

Melania Trump, first person born in a communist nation to become U.S. First Lady. *Yes, I agree, not much of a milestone, but still one nonetheless.
Kellyanne Conway, first woman to win U.S. presidential campaign.
Ilhan Omar, first Somali-American legislator.
Catherine Cortez Masto, first Latino U.S. Senator.
Kamala Harris, first Indian Senator and California's first African-American Senator.
Tammy Duckworth, first Asian American woman to become Illinois Senator, first disabled woman to be elected to the U.S. House of Representatives, and the first member of Congress born in Thailand.
Carla Hayden, first female and African American Librarian of Congress.
Kate Brown, first openly bisexual person as governor of Oregon.
Stephanie Murphy, first Vietnamese-American woman to be voted role in congress.
Pramila Jayapal, first Indian-American woman to be elected to the US House of Representatives.
Lisa Blunt Rochester, first woman and the first black representative to serve Delaware in Congress.

BONUS: Hillary Clinton, first female in U.S. history to become a presidential nominee for the Democratic party: www.motherjones.com/politics/2…

Maybe if she pulled her head out of her ass and paid more attention to what's going on, she might not have looked so stupid and realized that the so-called "glass ceiling" has been shattered.

This is a pretty good work that shows that Hillary trying to ride the fact she is a woman into the White House is wearing thin these days. If these women have made it pretty far in their own rights, with some of them having other hurdles like their relgion or race in their way too (I personally don't believe in that being a factor but in Hillary's eyes and her cohurt's eyes race and religion are factors to consider that is why I mentioned that.) Hillary is crumbling and her arguments in her favor are weak. This is great to show that others have done things better than she did and I applaud you for that. I don't know about Melania but that is only my personal bias based on the fact she's just married to Trump but she did some hard work there anyway, so I am not going to argue you on that.

Thanks for the critique! Yeah, Melania Trump didn't do much other than marry Donald Trump, but the fact that she's the first person born in a communist nation to become First Lady shouldn't be overlooked either.

PurplePhoneixStar In reply to brentcherry [2016-11-28 00:35:31 +0000 UTC]

True that. But then again, being married to Trump as long as she has should be an achivement in and of itself. XD
