She actually has said something I agree with. It's in a "broken clock is right twice a day" sort of sense, though. Absolutely a woman should discuss it with her husband before taking a job in the White House -- but that's because ANYONE should discuss it with their spouse, regardless of gender, because it's gonna be a huge impact on their life together. And most people would probably not want their spouse working in the White House, if they have any inkling of what that sort of life is like.

But it is NOT because a woman is subservient, or because women are supposed to caring for the babies. It's because marriage comes with mutual respect -- or should, anyway. That's probably not a concept she's familiar with.
