For some reason, unknown to some in the LGBT community, Ellen DeGeneres is a big advocate for Hillary Clinton for president. However, she has managed to stay somewhat quiet about that until now. Recently, on the “Ellen” show, DeGeneres made it clear that she believes Hillary is a victim of sexism.

DeGeneres claims that because people think Hillary comes off as a domineering brute and should smile a little more, that she is being targeted simply because of her vagina. One thing DeGeneres can’t say is “No one would ever say that to Bernie” because no one needs to. Bernie is full of positive energy that exudes from his radiant smile.

However, that’s exactly what Ellen did.

Ellen had this to say in the opening segment of her show:

“She gave a very passion speech, and then someone, I don’t want to say it was a man, because it was a bunch of men – they said that Hillary needs to smile more. Here’s something you should never tell a woman – smile, relax, calm down, or drink less.”

Ellen then goes on to point out images of the candidates running against Hillary that show them in the middle of a passionate speech. She didn’t, however, show the thousands of images of Bernie Sanders grinning ear to ear, just happy to be making a difference.

It is evident through Hillary’s anger that she is quite worried about her Democratic running mate pulling an Obama on her.

Ellen continued:

“I know Hillary, and I know there are plenty of things that make her smile – like her daughter, her granddaughter, when there’s a sale on pantsuits. At the end, Ellen has a pretty universal message regarding smilegate. I’m not against smiling. I think we should all do it more – women, men, cats, Clint Eastwood… But we should do it on our own terms.”

One thing we aren’t clear on, Ellen, is why is it not okay for Caitlyn Jenner to vote Republican, but it’s okay for you to vote for someone who has just recently decided that you deserve your constitutional rights – a person who either then or now is not being true to their beliefs, assuming they have any?
