The premise of this one is as follows, from memory:

The Pope and Hillary Clinton are at an MLB diamond. The Pope says, “With a wave of my hand, I can make these people’s days.”

To which Hillary replies with, “Maybe you should prove that.”

The Pope just backhands the back of her head and everyone cheers at that.

    While I agree with the first sentence, I am curious how you came to the conclusion that this “joke” is misogynistic.

    You could replace Hillary Clinton with a male public figure (i.e. Bill Clinton) and it would work just as well.

    The pope represents a misogynistic organization, but he is barely relevant in this joke.

    Is it related to Hillary Clinton in general getting more negative comments/jokes/etc. because she is a woman?

    Is there something in the text that I am missing completely here?
