What is wrong with white women?

Why? Because I think she is a disaster. I'd love to see a woman President--but, not this woman. And, I have intelligence enough to choose which person will be better for this country. Everything Hillary touched turned into disaster. Why would we expect her Presidency to be any different.

Thank you for being thoughtful, independent and brave.

That's exactly what a democracy needs, not OP's stupid groupthink.

I hope to god these same women have to run pillar to post to get a bloody abortion. I also hope they have to keep the child of their rapist and raise that kid with the rapist. Frankly these women fall into 2 categories a) who don't give a damn about their rights, their only identity is wife and mommy b) this category is educated but fell hard for the Trump kool-aid thinking nothing will happen to their rights because he just "talks" like that. B group will wake up screaming when their rights are gone. Frankly, I hope they all get what they deserve.

You will get it too!

Oh no, I have means to avoid that misery, they don't. But it will be fun to watch the shit show.

Many of the woman who voted for Trump do not want to get an abortion, nor do they want you or any other woman to get one. Many "white" and other women view this as a more important issue than Trump's misogynist comments from years ago. Many of these woman felt the lives of the unborn were more important than mean words from one man bragging to another. Many of these woman who voted for Trump do not make feminism their top priority.

Dear op,

insecurity.
Despite being the most built up class in the world behind white men- white women are very insecure.

Also unlike their counterparts in other races white women tend to be very submissive.

+1 LOL. It's hilarious to read so many of these posts. It seems that the only way many of these posters can make sense of HRC's loss is to demean those who supported Trump. Guess it makes them feel better to say that white women voted the way their husbands told them. Ridiculous. And low information voters? Let's not pretend that most Democrats are highly intelligent and well read either. There are plenty of low information voters in both parties. Much of Trump's support resulted from the economy, immigration issues, and potential Supreme Court nominees.

That anchor's treatment of the guests on her show was OBNOXIOUS. She belittled and demeaned the woman she was questioning.

I was a Trump supporter before my husband was! He was skeptical because he watches the news every day and all he heard was that Trump was racist and bad. After he watched Trump actually speaking, not how the news took it out of context and reported it, he realized that Trump was the best candidate. Now he likes Trump as much as I do. I think people who just accept that Trump is racist because the newz says so are lazy.

Nothing wrong with those women. It is just that the poster implies that white women are superior and should not have voted for Trump. Sounds just a tad racist to me, but that may be because I am one of those racist white women who voted for Trump.

They saw no way out under HRC, so Trump was the only other option in a two-way race.

What has Trump proposed other than the MAGA line?

Not a single thing but the idea there is - a Republican lowers taxes which gives more money in their pocket. He could even bring jobs back in their eyes whereas Hillary was more focused on educated, well-heeled donors than the blue-collar populace in small towns and coal country. I don't think they were at all rational about Trump, but if you're dying and someone is offering a lifeline, you jump for the lifeline.

Her soundbites came down to raising taxes, keeping Obamacare, protecting disadvantaged groups (everything from gay rights to equal pay), and spending more money (on things like eliminating in-state tuition).

His soundbites came down to jobs, build the wall, get rid of the immigrants, jobs, and social hate.

They picked the person who promised their husbands' jobs, not the person who guaranteed they would get paid equally for work at a job they don't have or who could increase the minimum wage (possibly killing the few jobs left in their area).

HRC did not want to raise taxes for the people that is referenced in those articles -- rural poor. Quite the opposite. She wanted to raise taxes for the very wealthy. Plus, she wanted to invest more in training programs, which would've helped the poor. And ACA also helps the rural poor since they would get huge subsidies.

IMO, the rural poor voted against their interests. If they only voted for Trump because of the promise to bring back manufacturing jobs, well, I got a bridge to sell them. The only other thing I can think of as a reason for why they voted for Trump is xenophobia and/or racism.

No the rural poor voted against people like you, PP, who --in your humble opinion -- seem to know more about them than they do.
