GOOD NEWS! They Say Trump Has A Female Support Problem. Well Look at The Democrats
OpenSecrets.org ^ | 01/05/20 | Vg0va3

We are told that President Trump has an issue of lack support for woman. I figured that one way to measure that is to look at where the donations are coming from and see how that compares to the Democrat front-runners.

I looked at the fundraising demographics for Trump, Sanders, Biden, Warren and Mayor Pete from December 16, 2019 report found at Open Secrets.

Trump has received 34.7% from women. But Bernie, Biden and Mayor Pete are not generating much more support.

Bernie has received 39.7% from women. Biden 43.1% from women. Mayor Pete received 39.5% from women.

Only Warren breaks the 50% threshold with 51.1% of her donations coming from women.

I then look at the number of individual woman giving greater than $2,800 to each candidate to attempt to determine if there might be a difference in enthusiasm.

Trump has 1,282 Bernie has 245 Biden has 1,725 Warren has 308 Mayor Pete has 1,107 individual female contributors donating over $2,800 each.

This seems to indicate that over the 5 times as many Democrat woman are looking at the more centrist messages than the socialist message.

I take this to mean that for Democrats to have any chance to win woman over the Democrat nominee can be Bernie or Warren.

Those woman will either sit out or vote Trump.

My apologies. I posted this from my phone. I meant to write

“...the Democrat nominee can NOT be Bernie or Warren.”

Sorry for my mistake.

I’m not sure how you determined that most Democrat women want a centrist candidate. Biden sort of pretends to be centrist and many Democrats think only he can win against Trump, but they don’t like that he may be 1% less socialist than Bernie. Mayor Pete seems to be gaining ground but he is really a radical leftist.

Your last sentence makes no sense. It does not follow from the facts you cited that the whaaaamen will vote Trump. Gropey Plugs has many more whaaamen voters than Trump???

Kinda argues for the repeal of women’s sufferage, doesn’t it?

“They Say Trump Has A Female Support Problem.”

Correction. Trump has a Progressive Female Support Problem

I would hope so because, in my book, that is reason enough to vote for him

I meant by my comment to you that you cannot conclude that “Those woman will either sit out or vote Trump.”

Nothing you presented supports that statement.

What I get from this is 50% of women are gender biased. How is that different from being racist? Neither considers who is the best candidate; only what kind of genitalia they have like that makes a difference in good leadership qualities.

I wish people would stop giving these horrible people cute nicknames. Mayor Pete, AOC, etc. Why attempt to give them any endearing qualities? Buttigieg(sp) is a flaming sodomite with an almost unpronounceable last name who fancies himself the wife of another man. We should not refer to him as “Mayor Pete”. It makes him sound too innocuous. He is anything but. Homosexuals simply cannot be trusted with the power of the Presidency.

So the nicknames is what sticks to you. Not the data? Not that Trump does not have a female voter issue anymore than the grifter, the communist, or the mad magazine guy?

Sorry to have triggered you with the silly names. I was hoping for a different response.

That will all change when the democrats decide on a victim. Whoever it is is going to face the circular firing squad, so I hope it is one of the proggies so that we can win back the House and the fools will stop blaming the moderates for their losses. They aren’t going to lose because they are moderate. They are going to lose because not only are they overstepping, they are overstepping at a full gallop.

All I glean from this is that ALL wealthy people (both women and men) prefer a more centrist candidate.

But I could have told you that without seeing any of this data.

I wish it were so BUT I got to agree sauropad and while this is interesting to look at, looking at donors doesn’t really tell us much about the general election voter

Mayor Pete seems to be gaining ground but he is really a radical leftist.

Mayor Buttplug has been replaced as Mayor of South Bend, Indiana.

America will never elect a homosexual to the White House. Won't happen.

Correlation doesn't equal causation. In this case, it's a pretty poor correlation to think Democrat women hags will sit on their hands and not vote.

I don’t think the problem with Pete is that he is gay. The problem is that he is a focus grouped flavor of the day weak candidate. Everybody knows he will be a puppet for the scumbags who nearly destroyed us all.

Nothing you presented supports that statement.

You are correct. And you presented nothing and that does not disprove my hypothesis.

However, I will gladly share my reasoning. If someone maxes out in a primary they tend to be highly committed to that candidates position. How many people maxed out to Bush in 2016 and are now Never Trumpets.

I offered no guarantees. Only points to consider. Thanks for adding your thoughts.
