Hillary's Woman Card

During past debates, Donald Trump accused Hillary Clinton of using the "Woman Card" to get votes.

“If Hillary Clinton were a man, I don’t think she’d get 5 percent of the vote,” Trump said in a victory speech last Tuesday. “The only thing she’s got going is the woman’s card.”
-Donald Trump

Of course he meant to harm her campaign by downplaying her, but he actually did the opposite.  2.4 million dollars had been raised just in the last three days of April in fundraising Hillary's campaign after Trumps accusation.  Why?  The "Woman Card" of course!  Hillary's campaign has literally made Woman Cards to sell to her supporters.

“If fighting for women’s health care and paid family leave and equal pay is playing the woman card, then deal me in!” 
-Hillary Clinton

I personally think this was a classy response and a good use of negative energy to produce a positive result.  As much as I disagree with Clinton's policies and ideas,  I can respect her campaign for this.
