The suburban white mom’s biggest nightmare = being called a racist if they don’t vote for Joe.
When I read civility I hear cheese-eating, surrender monkey in my mind. My advice to quislings with the vapors is to fight for you rights or shut up and get out of the way.
apologize for the vanity, but I believe its important and something that I dont see discussed. We have to convince people who will not vote for President Trump to not vote.
The people that I am speaking to who despise Trump are voting against him, and not for Joe Biden. We need to convince evangelicals and suburban women that its okay NOT to vote. There are many evangelicals these days, and I work in this space, who refuse to vote for President Trump because they think he is a jerk. They despised Hillary so they were willing to vote for Trump, and they didnt have four years of media telling them they are evil for supporting President Trump. These individuals are more likely to vote for pro-abortion Biden because they think he is a kind, harmless man, very unlike Hillary. We know how idiotic that is, but that sentiment is very real. The people need to be convinced that they are better off not voting than voting for Biden, not because it will get the result they want but because its the moral decision if they cant vote for President Trump.
The pro-Trump supporters will vote no matter what. We need to convince the hold your nose and vote for Biden voters that the Godly thing to do is to just not vote at all and continue to ask if they think a Harris presidency is going to further the Kingdom. Deep down they know that answer. A bit Im not voting and thats okay movement could be incredibly significant.
Not sure this is at all new. What were “Soccer Moms” in prior elections? My research says that this term dates from 1996. Methinks this is more campaign consultant talk, repackaging to sell to the anxious candidates!
Trump really needs to push the law and order message with suburbia. Kamala bailing out rioters, etc.
Agreed, a vote for Biden is a vote for Bernie & Socialism. A vote for Biden is a vote against your children's education. A vote for Biden is a vote for bad foreign policy.
Unfortunately the truth hurts. We have Democrats wreaking havoc all over the country because of women. Thats it. Fact. Women, in the majority, vote D and we are reaping the whirlwind. Sucks. Im lucky to have married one of the few reliable Republican female voters in the entire state of Massachusetts
FTA: ...the vast majority of conservative women of faith arent voting. In fact, most arent even registered to vote.

Well, then, those women are not too bright. Perhaps they shouldn’t vote.
The women she’s talking about who don’t vote, merit no consideration. Those same women probably gave us Clinton and Obama. Just more bloviating from a section of the non-voting public who want to be heard everywhere except from the ballot box. A waste of time. Kind of like the non-existent youth vote.
Assuming these people weren’t going to vote for Trump, fine. But if their choice is between grudgingly voting for Trump or not voting at all, there needs to be an attempt to get them to vote. The less who vote for Trump means less that the DEMs have to manufacture via fraud.
... is the proof of the "emotions over facts" with a large portion of the current American voters.
This is the problem with suburban women voters, expecting civility in political discourse is like waiting for "Prince Charming", reality is not a fairy tale ....
This isn't about crumpets and tea. She's talking about actual civility: public manners. When that goes, fights and killings and tyranny are around the corner.
I was old enough in the 1960s to watch the hippies bring the nation from dressing weird and long hair, to in-your-face informality, to rudeness in the name of politics, to a violent crime explosion, to totalitarian violence--all in the space of less than a decade.
Lack of civility is a deliberate tool in the Communist playbook: Destroy the existing order through bizarre protest behavior whose real purpose is to destroy public manners, to create chaos; then erect your police state out of people's desperation for safety.
I look at it this way. Southern towns are notoriously polite. Civility is a sign that people are confident, relaxed, and armed.
I have recently convinced 2 women who otherwise wouldnt have voted for Trump, to actually vote FOR him, and not to abstain from voting at all.
They have realized that they werent being told the truth - about Trump or his accomplishments. They also realized they werent being told the truth about Biden or his non-accomplishments.
I am hoping that it will become more apparent even in the popular vote, that Trump is the right man for the job.
I thought married white women voted majority Trump in 2016.
“There are many evangelicals these days, and I work in this space, who refuse to vote for President Trump because they think he is a jerk.”
Really? How do you define “evangelical”? I see zero correlation among the evangelicals I know. Mostly know baptists and non-denominational believers.
The soccer moms of 2020.
Breaking decidedly for Biden and Democrats.
“God help us if we ever give ‘em the vote”

I am having a hard deciding if this woman is a Democrat or a Republican.
Maybe that’s the problem, in a nutshell.
“What the F*ck do these women want???”
And I can say that because I am a suburban woman with two now-grown children and I know exactly what I want: Four more years with President Trump and Vice President Pence.
The dilemma is that shallow-thinking folks think that because cities burning down “happened under Trump” and rank violence bleeding into the suburbs “happened under Trump” and CV-19 “happened under Trump” that somehow all these things are Trump’s doing, or fault. This is the media message, 24/7. To the extent it works—it works. To the extent that the author of this piece claims now she and her ilk are now worried about paying their rent/mortgage and keeping their neighborhoods safe so they can raise their kids...they’re either lying or not thinking it through. And I don’t understand that. They’re not stupid, they’re the victims and targets of relentless propaganda that plays upon their emotions. But why they believe *anything* Biden & co might have done would have cut the CV-19 death count is defective thinking. Why they might believe that Biden would have acted to stanch the violence in the streets, when he and Kamala have scarcely even criticized same; this I do not understand either.
