4. 1) those are different shades of blue and 2) men wear the same color suits all the time

I occasionally forget that these pundits get and keep their jobs precisely _because_ they can't think critically.

1. Pundits can be morons
2. brightly-colored clothing is deliberately noticeable

If two men wore blue-colored jackets next to each other at a political function they would be similarly conspicuous. For a valid reason. It's fashion and the art of professional wardrobe, not unequal treatment.

8. What if men all wore a suit

the same color as Hillary and Warrens? I think every would talk about it. And they would talk about if say just Trump wore a suit of the same blazing blue color. I'm sure someone would call him goofy.

you don't hear these pundits making these kinds of comments about Trump and Christie wearing the same color suit, wonder why that is? Couldn't be that these "pundits" are nothing but typical right wing sexists assholes could it?

14. They're shades of blue, the color of the Democratic Party.

Would these pundits have mocked two Democratic men both wearing blue ties, or two Republican men both wearing red ties, to the same rally?

I knew that HRC's candidacy would bring out the worst sexism in our society (and for a while even hoped HRC wouldn't run, since I didn't want to see it -- selfish, I know), but this is even worse than what I imagined.
