Donald Trump’s interjection was just four words, but the internet is still talking about the Republican nominee’s comment about the first female major party nominee for president.
Twitter users quickly registered a website domain using the phrase, in the context “nasty women get s--t done,” to redirect to the donation page of Clinton’s campaign website. By early Thursday morning, at least two online retailers were advertising a #NastyWoman t-shirt with some of the profits pledged to Planned Parenthood.
Several of those using the hashtag on Twitter expressed solidarity with other “nasty women”:
Strong women are nasty women. Raise your hand if you are a nasty woman! I sure am. #debatenight #nastywoman

RT If you're proud to be a #nastywoman (translates to: strong, independent, intelligent woman who takes no crap from nobody!) #Debate

Others used the hashtag to riff on another Trump response in the debate, which made mention of “bad hombres”:

And at least a few commented on how the insult might even be a compliment for Clinton:
Nasty woman is probably the coolest thing Hillary has ever been called.

But at one person didn’t take particular note of the comment: the woman on the stage. Clinton told reporters after she left the debate stage that “I didn’t pay any attention to that” during her response.
