6. It's not a question of some sexist gender-denying definition of courage.

Democratic women are as courageous and perhaps more so than men, given what they face almost every day if not more often.

Trump is all about threats, not treats. But more so than his threats, which have proven to be almost all idle, his technique for driving voters (his base) is fear. But that is the ages-old CONservative and RepubliCON technique.

Progressives are positive and don't make fear their main argument.

People who get things done don't make many threats. They act.

Please be progressive and socially advanced and drop the sexist gender-exclusive sexual metaphor.
