The button reads: “KFC Hillary Special: 2 Fat Thighs, 2 Small Breasts” and, presumably, one “Left Wing.” Independent Journal reporter Joe Perticone posted a photo of the button to Twitter Friday morning, drawing responses from offended commenters. > [](https://twitter.com/JoePerticone/status/665181462900158464) The buttons quickly drew criticism on Twitter: > [](https://twitter.com/shift%5Fin2%5Fturbo/status/665184534871351301) > [](https://twitter.com/PhillyCook/status/665187441981186048) > [](https://twitter.com/LilRedWagon2/status/665191601791246336) Perticone [posted](https://twitter.com/JoePerticone/status/665191001502457856) that the buttons were for sale between booths for candidates Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. The vendor does not work for the party or any of the candidates. Such buttons are not uncommon fare at similar functions. The [two-day Sunshine Summit](http://www.sunshinesummit.gop/agenda) around GOP candidates and Florida officials began officially on Friday morning. _With reporting from Zeke Miller in Florida._ ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4111613/these-sexist-anti-hillary-clinton-buttons-are-on-sale-at-a-gop-conference/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4111613/these-sexist-anti-hillary-clinton-buttons-are-on-sale-at-a-gop-conference/"},"headline":"These Sexist Anti-Hillary Clinton Buttons Are on Sale at a GOP Conference","datePublished":"2015-11-13T16:30:58.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T12:35:46.466Z","description":"They compare her to KFC","url":"https://time.com/4111613/these-sexist-anti-hillary-clinton-buttons-are-on-sale-at-a-gop-conference/","keywords":["2016 Election","2016 Election topic"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Julia Zorthian","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/julia-zorthian/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/2016-election/","name":"2016 Election"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4111613/these-sexist-anti-hillary-clinton-buttons-are-on-sale-at-a-gop-conference/","name":"These Sexist Anti-Hillary Clinton Buttons Are on Sale at a GOP Conference"}}]}] ```
