You can't really say it's more one or the other. The other problem is him saying "this very moment". Let this sink in:
- there was a point in history where only white men who owned property could vote (racist, sexist, and classist)
- Women had a suffrage movement because women had few, limited rights
^^^ Due to this, you can't really say "this very moment", when America has a long history of sexism, racism, and classism. Even if we eventually have a female president, it won't change the sexism, just like Barack Obama becoming the first African American president didn't change racism. Just because women are now speaking out against Hollywood execs sexually harassing them also doesn't mean that this country is more sexist now than it was then. It just means that people are now more vocal about it. The same goes for racism.

That wouldn't make any sense tho cuz both Beyonce and his daughters are black, and he's been black before either of them existed.

What does that have to do with what he said? Being Black doesn't make him immune to making the statement he made, no matter how misguided or illogical it might appear.
@ he'll be there next election cycle with Hil Clinton and other celebrities, while she's dribbling a basketball.
" Hi everyone Hillary Clinton here
, I just want to say I want the best for everyone, and even though as parents, you should be the one telling your daughters they can accomplish anything if they put their mind to it, my election as president will symbolize that"
