(50,848 posts)67. I'm shocked that any woman or minority would support such a horrible person
The ones I've spoken to said it's because they are pro-business and anti-muslim, and want more jobs. They actually think he's going to bring back manufacturing and coal/oil jobs through subsidies and tariffs and trade reform. They think because they are US citizens they will be exempt from the racial violence and bigotry.
I don't know about female Trumpers but I bet many of them feel they are beyond the age of being sexually assaulted or somehow think it won't happen to them or their loved ones. There are also mentally ill trolls like Tila Tequila who literally ask for it and claim to enjoy it.
Plus you've probably encountered women who don't trust other women for various reasons. Some of them just don't like Hillary.
