Trump did a Fox News “town hall” with an all-woman audience and *started* the event by mocking the family of a woman who bled out and died because of GOP policy. And that audience of mostly white women LAUGHED. Loudly. Go watch it. And don’t you ever in your life blame or pressure black voters.

So so so disturbing. I keep wanting to believe those are laughs of discomfort… but I fear not.

That audience was vetted to only include Trump supporters. These women willingly overlook the sexism so they can benefit from the racism.

Ahhh, but you see, those women believe that that bleeding out thing will *never ever in their life* happen to them... Until it does and then they'll blame immigrants or some other trope, or they then cry and make a noise, and demand that something be done... or they disappear to some private clinic.

Really, just truly awful people who should never be forgotten or forgiven.

Empathy is for woke liberals.

A local Republican group took credit for helping to organize the town hall. FoxNews edited out parts that made it too obvious.

while the audience was probably hand picked, I think a maj of white women have voted for the GOP in presidential elections for 20 or 30 years now So a lot of white women are ok with anti choice reality is harsh

apparently fox packed the “town hall” with all trump supporters - saw a video on tiktok naming a few that were RNC members

That was a highly curated audience, but your point stands.
