That's what I'm hearing, anyway.

Republican women are firmly in the patriarchal society and reliably vote Republican. NOTHING will change that.

ONLY independent women might come over to the Democratic side. Indies are often moderates, I think. They're probably pretty confused about now. The far left is too left for them....if it looks like the Dem. Party is taken over by them. And the far right is too right for them, and the Repub Party HAS been taken over by them.

But this woman thing might be enough, and Trump might be enough, to get them to the polls to vote Democratic this year.
