(6,354 posts)for him in all three elections, the other four had voted for him the first two times, but went with Harris the last election.
Was listening in my car to NPR last week and caught the end of an interview with someone who'd plowed through the DEI info (a male whose intro I missed). He made the point that two of the most used words he found in those lists and texts were "woman" and "women".
My theory is that his female voters are swayed by male influencers, are ultra-religious, are wealthy, or are all three.

This edict VIOLATES the 1st Amendment Right to Free Speech. Agencies are in the business of addressing the needs of people, using the words on the list to include EBERYONE!

(24,140 posts)people. The Felon and Musk are going to do all they can to decimate the government. If they have any agencies, they will fill them with incompetent loyalists.

Tangentially, a guest on Michelangelo Signorile's program yesterday said that the Center for Missing and Exploited Children will have a bunch of new rules that are abhorrent, one of them being they can no longer feature transgender kids (who are among the MOST at risk, especially now). I didn't understand if that literally means transgender kids who are missing or endangered will not be advertised at all in any capacity--no alerts sent, etc... That was the gut feeling I got from the reporting.
This assault on the language is so demoralizing and surreal.
EDITED to provide source for info about the Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
The journalist's name is Marisa Kabas, and her website is called The Handbasket.
