Noah Gushes: ‘Cute’ Clinton ‘Crushes’ ‘Douchebag' Trump’s ‘Sexism’

2012’s “War on Women” line of attack by the Democrats and the media appears to be back in full-swing, even before the party has elected its nominee. After Donald Trump accused Hillary Clinton of using the “woman card,” Clinton shot back, championing her pro-abortion, feminist politics.
