Clinton&#8217;s attempt to equate \u2062herself \u2064with Gerwig and Robbie, who faced disappointment\u2064 in their Oscar bid, was seen by many as tone-deaf and out of touch.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, critics pointed out that Clinton&#8217;s \u2064comparison seemed to divert attention\u200b from her own shortcomings, particularly her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/analysis-why-desantis-failed\/\" title=\"DeSantis' failure analyzed\">failed campaign strategy<\/a> in the 2016 election. Her failure to visit and connect with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/rhodes-rage\/\" title=\"Rhodes Rage\">important swing states<\/a> like Wisconsin was \u2064seen as\u2064 a crucial mistake\u2063 that ultimately cost \u2062her the election. By comparing herself to Gerwig and Robbie, Clinton was accused of deflecting responsibility and attempting to gain sympathy for her own perceived injustices.<\/p>\n<p>The Twitter replies to Clinton&#8217;s tweet highlighted the frustration and anger felt by many towards her comparison. One social media user sarcastically commented that\u2062 Margot Robbie should have\u2064 visited\u2062 Wisconsin, \u200bclearly alluding to \u2062Clinton&#8217;s\u200c failure to do so. This remark not only criticized Clinton&#8217;s lack of presence in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/series-of-recent-national-polls-released-its-big-for-trump-but-biden-wont-like-it\/\" title=\"New Polls Favor Trump, Biden Displeased\">key \u2062battleground states<\/a> but\u2064 also highlighted the irony of comparing \u2062herself to actresses who \u2063faced disappointment while ignoring her\u2064 own political missteps.<\/p>\n<p>Another \u2063Twitter user raised the issue of sexism in \u200cthe entertainment industry, suggesting that the lack of nominations \u200cfor Gerwig and Robbie demonstrates a deeper\u200c systemic problem. This criticism implies that\u2064 Clinton&#8217;s comparison\u2062 is an\u2062 attempt to exploit the \u2064issue of gender inequality to garner sympathy or distract from her own political\u200c failures.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, some Twitter\u2064 users questioned the quality of\u200c the movie &#8220;Barbie&#8221; \u2063itself, asserting that commercial success does not necessarily equate to a good film. They drew a parallel to Clinton&#8217;s electoral support, pointing out\u2064 that receiving a high number of votes does not make one \u2062a competent or successful candidate.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Clinton&#8217;s \u200ccomparison of herself to Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie has been met\u2064 with widespread criticism \u200con \u200dsocial media. \u2062The backlash emphasizes the need for public figures to be aware of the context and implications of \u2062their statements, especially \u2063when attempting to draw parallels and \u2063make personal \u200dcomparisons. This incident serves as a\u200d reminder that allusions and comparisons should\u2064 be made thoughtfully and \u2063with consideration for their potential impact\u200b on the \u200daudience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hillary Clinton is facing social media ridicule for likening herself to Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie, who were not nominated for individual Academy Awards for their roles in &#8220;Barbie.&#8221; Clinton sympathized with them, acknowledging that achieving box office success without winning awards can be disheartening, but assured them of their millions of fans&#8217; support<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":345,"featured_media":2158704,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[541],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2158703","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-daily-wire"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2158703","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/345"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2158703"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2158703\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2158704"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2158703"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2158703"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2158703"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
