    He means people are considered about the economy. Women included.

  • Sounds like Mr. Manafort needs to step into the 21st century.  Everyone is often afraid they won't be able to keep up with their bills .. male and female.  Maybe he hasn't heard that women work and can vote and everything now.

    You mean "concerned" about the economy, right? The women don't pay the bills m2c? They are the little woman who doesn't know anything about the money because the man handles all of that? I found it very offensive. I pay the bills in our house. I am a retired Internal Auditor so that makes sense doesn't it? But Jim knows everything about our finances. I just do the mechanics. I doubt that I have ever been "the little woman" who is ignorant about the family finances. Manafort showed his chauvinistic old-guard opinion of women.  Thank you for your reply 2c!  :)

    I am a retired Internal Auditor. I pay all the bills and always have. I enjoy it. Jim knows everything about our finances. It is just so dam*ed chauvinistic and old-world ignorant. The little woman is so worried that her man can't pay the bills? Seriously? In what century does Manafort think we live?  Insulting as he** but then it shows what his attitude about women is. Thank you for your reply LC! :)
