(CNN)In candid remarks Wednesday, former first lady Michelle Obama said women who voted for Republican nominee Donald Trump over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton went against their "authentic voice" in the 2016 presidential election.
"Any woman who voted against Hillary Clinton voted against their own voice," she said at the Inbound 2017 conference in Boston, according to video from inside the event.
"What does it mean for us as women that we look at those two candidates, as women, and many of us said, that guy, he's better for me, his voice is more true to me," Obama said. "Well, to me that just says you don't like your voice. You like the thing you're told to like."

I'll take the "I watch sports to escape politics." seriously when the same people want to remove the pledge from sporting events.
The pledge is not present at any sporting events.
Damn colleges indoctrinating kids.
Since the 10th anniversary of 9/11, University of Connecticut fans, players and coaches have been asked to recite the Pledge of Allegiance, first at football and now men's and women's basketball games. UConn interim athletic director Paul Pendergast has made it a policy.
So we're in agreement if we want to get the politics out of sports we have to remove the national anthem and the other stuff?
I had no idea there was this basketball team out in Connecticut that recited the pledge. I’d only ever heard the anthem up until now to my recollection.
And no, we absolutely disagree.
Worth a shot. The Anthem is political, always has been. Sorry you can't see that as easily as you see that you were wrong about the pledge.
Same back at you.
just to clarify. Which of the statements do you disagree with? That the anthem is political or that you can't be without politics unless you leave the anthem out?

Are you saying that the National Anthem and Pledge of Allegiance aren't political?
If we want to get politics out of sports, GH’s proposal is absolutely the wrong approach.

LANSING -- The director of the Michigan State Police apologized late Tuesday for sharing a Facebook message disparaging athletes who kneel during the national anthem as “anti-American degenerates,” but the apology came amid strong criticism and calls for her resignation or firing.
Col. Kriste Kibbey Etue shared a message on her personal Facebook page Sunday that said athletes who take a knee during the pre-game national anthem -- an action several of the players have described as a symbolic protest against racial oppression and incidents of police brutality against blacks -- are "millionaire ingrates who hate America and disrespect our armed forces and veterans" and "a bunch of rich, entitled, arrogant, ungrateful, anti-American degenerates."

Well after years of being demonized by feminist, this is a backlash from straight males.

If, hypothetically, we wanted to remove all X from Y, and Z is an example of X that is currently a part of Y, then I would think Z (and other relevant elements) would be removed from Y...
Do you think the National Anthem and Pledge of Allegiance are political?
If so, then they need to be removed from sports if we want to get the entirety of politics out of sports. If not, then they could stay if we want to get the entirety of politics out of sports.
So if you want them to stay in sports, then either you don't think they're political or you don't want politics removed from sports. Right? Which is it?

Most vocally from straight white males, fools and jerks.

nah, it's more a backlash from fools and jerks.
Maybe jerks to you because your party lost.
But for the most of the people that are sick of women vitctimizing themselves with the myth of doing the same job and getting paid 70% as male and also using false rape accusation to destroy innocent people's lives.
And then there are also industries based upon these scams like your mattress girls, Rolling Stones, and Anita Sarkeesians.

not jerks because my party lost; jerks from an objective standpoint. (as objective as such things can be at least). mostly fools though; with a sprinkling of jerks. not surprising you're incapable of seeing that. your understanding of the realities of sexual assault issues is as dismal as i'd expect. your claim of there being "industries" of such, is as nonsensical as always.
