Trump Falling Way Behind Among GOP Women

“Of all the tribulations facing Donald J. Trump, perhaps none is stirring as much anxiety inside his campaign as the precipitous decline of support from Republican women, an electoral cornerstone for the party’s past nominees that is starting to crumble,” the New York Times reports.

“In a striking series of defections, high-profile Republican women are abandoning decades of party loyalty and vowing to oppose Mr. Trump, calling him emotionally unfit for the presidency and a menace to national security.”

3. He has made himself the unattractive candidate he is in their minds. Even Nixon looked better.

Instead of wooing the American woman, he chooses instead to dominate, to crush, to issues edicts in place of education. He does not pay attention to what is important to woman in this country. Surely not the first candidate to do that. However he is the first to be as dismissive as he has been.

And you know what? We're not taking it anymore. We're done. Black, White, Hispanic, Republican, Democrat...we're done.

You're not going to deprive us of good jobs, of education, of our sons for your wars, of food for our children and not hear from us this time.

So fuck Donald Trump and his Hugh Heff kind of life. We want more and we're going to get it.
