Anyway, said nephew said Mr. Trump's speech sounded like a concession speech, stating several times that "I can't believe I'm going to lose to him". The rally did not end until after 1 a.m. I hope those people weren't stranded in the dark.



Did anyone else watch this speech?
Why?

It is my experience that men are more than willing to give a woman a chance if they think they have come up the same ranks they have but if they feel the woman is a poser, there for nothing more than having a dress on... they won't vote for them.. no matter what they may say to people.

I think women have to own this fact and stop acting like children throwing a temper tantrum when they don't get their way. Plenty of women have been elected to important positions, Margret Thatcher anyone? You need to earn it. Not just get it because you are a "woman".

I think if the Democrats ran Tulsi Gabbard men would have been lined up around the corner to vote for her. But they didn't. Telling you all you need to know about what the real game is with the democrats and gender.
I think you're completely wrong. If Democrats had run Tulsi, the GOP would have attacked her too. The GOP has LOST ground with Republican women in Congress. Do you really think every male president "earned it"? Come on. The bar is low for men and insurmountable for women. The only reason the GOP put Serena Joy on the Supreme Court is because they took so much pleasure in putting a pro-life Christian in the seat of the iconic and historic RGB. They want to erase that Ruth Bader Ginsberg ever existed.

I grew up in the Church of Christ. I know these people. This is what/how the GOP thinks of women.

How Conservatism Failed Its Women

But do go on about how women haven't "earned" the right to be president. There are plenty of conservative/Republican women who will fully agree with you that women should remain below the men.

When Trump got out of the plane and was greeting the crowd it was "Beat It" by Michael Jackson. I guess guys who are dead won't complain about a Republican using their music.

In my honest opinion, I think Trump will win the electoral college and Biden wins the popular vote...much larger than HRC. I hope I'm wrong though.

My crystal ball has been showing a Trump win, all along, possibly due to mail in ballots.

I don’t support either candidate and, as in 2016, decided which candidate to vote against, in the voting booth.

I've heard people, lots of people, say Republicans are incapable of producing good music.

so there's that.
