Madeleine Albright is not particularly good at being a party politician - at least not out in the open.
"There's a special place in hell for women who don't support women" is a solid standup thing to say; except when your candidate's been working really hard to countervail the "Vote With Your Vagina" thing - then it's one of the dumbest fuckin' things anybody ever said.
That said, Ms Albright is pretty good at the kind of international politics that made her a decent choice for (the first female) Sec'y of State, even if she was a little spotty on the war thing.
Anyway, she's had a closeup view of Daddy State shit, and it usually pays to listen to people with that kind of experience.
“You pluck the chicken one feather at a time, and people don’t really notice.” — Benito Mussolini, quoted by Madeleine Albright. Remember that as you watch our Chicken-Plucker-in-Chief and are tempted to just flip the bird 🖕🏽and move on. Yelling at your screen isn’t enough.— Laurence Tribe (@tribelaw) April 15, 2018
