Opinion: Why only a woman can win a debate against Trump
later, “which is why I don’t understand why his hands are the size of someone who is 5’2.” How did that go? We know what happened to “Little Marco.”Trump tried it with Hillary in 2016 but failed. When he hovered over her during the second debate when she was speaking, a heavily memed moment on social media, Hillary continued along, not letting it knock her off her stride.
When confronted with Trump’s attacks, my worry is a male opponent might prove that boys will in fact be boys. But women are less susceptible to this particular variety of bullying. Maybe that’s because it’s harder to go after a woman in the same way, as Hillary Clinton’s Senate debates in 2000 with then-Republican Rep. Rick Lazio, when his invasion of her personal space didn’t go over well with people watching.
So herein lies the challenge, and the opportunity to see how candidates handle necessary course corrections. Who can stand up to Trump’s lying and impulsiveness without overcompensating, without swinging too far the other way?
