Following his five-state sweep of the Republican primaries on Tuesday night, Donald Trump raised more than a few eyebrows by accusing Hillary Clinton of playing the “woman card” in her bid for the Democratic nomination.
“Frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don’t think she’d get 5 percent of the vote,” Trump said during a press conference at Trump Tower in New York City. “The only thing she’s got going is the woman’s card. And the beautiful thing is, women don’t like her.”

Mary Pat Christie, the wife of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, appeared to roll her eyes at Trump as she stood behind him onstage.
And her eye roll did not go unnoticed online.

During her husband’s failed bid for the GOP nomination, Christie was often asked about her family’s close relationship with the Trumps — and the first lady of New Jersey was careful to avoid dissing the billionaire real estate mogul.
“Donald and Melania are friends,” she said on Fox News last year. “And he’s been an incredible businessman. So I think it’s honorable [for him] to put his hat in the ring [and] talk about the serious issues facing this country.”
