The Lyrics
For the woman who distanced herself from those who merely "stay in the kitchen baking cakes and cookies" while the husband earns the income and seeks fortune and fame, I chose TOS, one of the most sexist love songs ever written. Maybe those "kitchen table" issues will be her presidential campaign's undoing.
She may seem cheery
Voters' eyes get bleary
Staring at lame drab pants suits
And when she's dreary
Try a miniskirt and boots
She served at State to
Use it as a gate to
Donations that bought access
Which she would route through
Private-served e-mail address
'Twas not just confidential
She had state secrets in there
FBI that's soft and gentle
Made it easier to bear
She'll soon regret that
Women won't forget that
Governing's her happiness
And they'll call her sleazy
Why her polls are trending less
Voters' eyes get bleary
Staring at lame drab pants suits
And when she's dreary
Try a miniskirt and boots
She served at State to
Use it as a gate to
Donations that bought access
Which she would route through
Private-served e-mail address
'Twas not just confidential
She had state secrets in there
FBI that's soft and gentle
Made it easier to bear
She'll soon regret that
Women won't forget that
Governing's her happiness
And they'll call her sleazy
Why her polls are trending less

A more effective line might be "Governing, she would oppress" or "Governing, she'd bring distress" near the end.
... or "Governing, she'd speed 'Progress' " or "Cover-ups, she'll ne'er confess" (there are so many possibilities!)
