Misogyny likely played a small factor. AZ for example has trump up by a couple percent, but also Kari Lake down a couple percent. And her whole platform was “whatever helps trump”. The numbers aren’t huge, but it’s likely at least part of that gap.
They hate black women, Hillary Clinton actually won the popular vote
Harris still might, California is only 60% counted with mostly urban places left to count.
It wouldn't be much, but I still hope Harris wins the popular vote -- even though I think she was a fucking garbage candidate. At least then I can go back to shouting from the highest tower that we should abolish the electoral college -- but living in a world where Trump won the popular vote tells me America as a whole isn't better than this, this is exactly who the majority of Americans are -- hateful, scared and short sighted. I was lied to by my parents for my entire life -- they told me there were more good people than bad people, but then they got old and they started voting for the very same bad people they taught me how to recognize. What the everloving fuck happened
Join the crowd ladies. Their hate is very wide.
That is the correct conclusion...
Women should just fucking leave their Trump voting husband/boyfriend and should go no contact with their Trump loving fathers, brothers and sons. Seriously if the men don’t stand behind their women why should these women even support their men.
Go let them wallow in misery. And let them fight over the remaining nut job women who voted for Trump. The Trump male to Trump female ratio doesn’t favor these men in the dating scene.
They don't value women enough to consider that a loss.
For them, all of the smart women shutting up or leaving is probably beneficial.
These men who are meant to be protectors of the women in their lives have committed the ultimate betrayal of selling them out as slaves. What vile creatures. How could anyone stand to be in the same room as a man who did that to you. That would make me sick to my core.
It's not "just" that, but it was the deciding factor that made this all moot from the start.
The people who voted for trump are, in their DNA, at their core, bigoted cowards that wouldn't have been swayed by anything else - She has a vagina and she's black - That's all it was ever going to be.
" I was this close, Bill... I just wanted more policy details... More time... If only they didn't make me vote for trump".
