Frances Sanders: Taking a bite out of Trump’s Hillary critique

Donald Trump is criticizing Hillary Clinton for playing, “the woman card.” I say that he is playing the “It was Eve’s fault that Adam ate the apple” card and we are supposed to extrapolate from this that all the evil things that men have done is the woman’s fault. This kind of thinking has worked against women for thousands of years. I have to ask: Is the male so morally weak that he always eats the apple?
