In reply to the discussion: & each one of these guys came for the women & you didn't care as we were sexually assaulted & denied [View all]IronLionZion
(50,848 posts)13. People spoke out
yet somehow these assholes won the election anyway. People voted for the grabber and the bigot. White power trumped feminism. The majority of white women voted to throw one of their own under the bus to maintain their privilege and power.
There are more women in this country than men. No voter suppression tactics to keep women from voting like they do with "urban" and college students and other types of reliable Democratic voter blocks. Nobody stopped women from voting for a woman.
On a positive note, we did elect several new women and minorities to congress/senate this year.

OP
I'm shocked that any woman or minority would support such a horrible person

Yer damn right. I swear people don't think we matter a bit. Even women sometimes.
