As a woman in a mixed marriage - I'm the Republican, DH is the Democrat, that ad absolutely appals me. It is unbelievably patronizing and condescending to women.

Yes it’s definitely upsetting that some women in America have to hide their votes from their MAGA husbands. The RWNJ echo chamber really fell into the trap on this. Their reaction to the ad really told on them.

I realize that most of the posters on DCUM live in a bubble, but this attitude is shocking.
You really don't understand that there are Republican women - like close to 50% of women? Women who are really, truly Republican, and are not just being brain-washed into their beliefs by their knuckle-dragging, MAGA husbands?

That ad is not for them.

Hard pass from this Republican woman. The problem is the people making these ads don't know any Republican women or how we think.

The ad isn’t for republican women. It’s for women who feel pressured by their husbands to vote for Trump. These women aren’t republicans. If you’re truly confused about who this ad is intended for, go read The Well Trained Wife by Tia Levings. She discusses this phenomenon in the context of the 2000 election.

This is stupid. Should there be an ad telling men not to be p***y whipped by their wives into who to vote for?

I'm sure if there should be there would be. There's no shortage of political ads. This one is to encourage folks that want to vote for Harris to vote for Harris even if they're under pressure to not do so

Look, I think in any relationship where the spouses have different polictical views there is a good deal of debate (or in your mind, "pressure").
It's this assumption the left has that the only reason a woman could possibly vote for Trump is because she is being bullied into it, is what is so blood-boilingly infuriating to us women - who really, actually prefer Trump over Harris. In my case, I'm the Trump supporter in our marriage - much to my husband's chagrin.

Some women are stuck in abusive marriages where the husband is so controlling that he dictates who his wife votes for (or if she’s even allowed to vote). This is a real phenomenon.

Again, this ad is not for you. You are not the Main Character.

Exactly. You just expressed why us female Trump voters are so offended. You are equating being a Trump voter, with being the type of woman who would be married to a controlling abuser. Why do you not feel the need to tell women that it's ok to vote for Trump if their husbands want them to vote for Harris?

It's the belittling connotation of what a Trump voter is like that is deeply condescending and offensive. If you truly don't get why, you have a lot of self-reflection to do.

Dp- you really aren’t getting it. We know there are women that are voting for Trump by choice. This is about margins. This ad isn’t about you. It isn’t for you.
But here is how we KNOW there are women out there that want to make a different choice:
Democrats have a massive ground game. They have been knocking on doors and making phone calls and texts. They KNOW there are women out there that are potential Harris voters. They have spoken with these women that are pressured by their husbands, “church” and neighbors. We also know that these women exist because republican men are having an epic panic attack online about this.
So… this offends you? So what. You aren’t a potential voter. But they are out there and this race is about single digit movement.

That isn't what the ad is saying. What the ad is saying is that your vote is your franchise, and only can make that decision, so vote with your heart (and hopefully that is for Harris)

WTF are you talking about? The "crying" I've heard is from women who are deeply offended at the belief that the left thinks we are voting for Trump because we are being bullied about it from our husbands.

There is a whole segment of the right wing media echo-chamber and right wing social media where this is happening. You just aren't in that echo-system apparently. You should be thankful.

Oh come on. LadyRebuplican PP is being willfully ignorant. They work hard to maintain that level of ignorance.

Apparently not.

For example, This lady is irate because her DH is not sufficiently passionate about Kamala.

I saw them all lined up at the early voting location. But it's okay. We can cancel cancel out all the poor misguided husbands and then some.

These men also believe their wife is their property. And if they were around in the early 20th century would have been against womans suffrage. They would probably like to go back to when only white male landowners could vote.

This started when women started asking voting organizations if their husbands can find out who they voted for.

I get that there is a lot of missing context here for people who aren’t tuned in to political junkies, but it’s a real issue for some women. I doubt it’s millions, but there are some. This election won’t be won by millions. It will be won by thousands of votes in a handful of counties. Some political ads are aimed at these people.

I would make him explain it to our daughters. But he actually cares about them and women’s rights so it would never happen.

If my husband didn't vote for Trump, we may be headed to divorce.

These ads aren’t even from Harris’s team. They are from PACs.

Unfortunately, this is absolutely true. I have spoken with women on the phone and knocked doors of women who’ve had to quietly whisper “I am supporting her, but I can’t tell my husband.” I’m sorry if you don’t believe that’s true but it is 1000% true.

Wow! I can see why he might be wanting to keep his vote secret.
