Trump recently tweeted, Nobody has more respect for women than Donald Trump! This is hard to believe. More than 3 million people have seen the anti-Trump ad in which women repeat real quotes about women from Donald Trump, such as bimbo and fat pig. Trump described Megyn Kelly as having blood coming out of her wherever and mocked Carly Fiorinas appearance by saying, Look at that face. He tweeted a picture of Melania Trump next to Heidi Cruz, as if potential first ladies are contestants in a Miss Universe pageant. And when asked whether women should be punished in the event that abortion became illegal, he suggested that they should be.
Women arent amused. Seven out of ten women (67 percent) have an unfavorable view of Trump, and only 26 percent view him favorably, according to a national Quinnipiac survey from late March. Other polls have his unfavorability ratings among women even higher, at 74 percent.
Cruz has capitalized on Trumps missteps by not making similar misogynist gaffes (admittedly, this is a low bar). He also recently hosted an event The Celebration of Strong Women in Madison, Wis., featuring his wife, his mother, and none other than former competitor Carly Fiorina. All issues are womens issues, said Cruz, in one of his most humanizing events of the campaign.
This is a very encouraging development, but Cruz too has a steep hill to climb with women voters. Three in ten women surveyed had a favorable view of Cruz (29 percent) and nearly half had an unfavorable view of him (46 percent), according to the same Quinnipiac survey from late March.
Not that the GOPs leading candidates do particularly well with male voters.

Not all, thank goodness...


Many women (FReepers excepted) want a sense of lifetime security. Since the country frowns on a man giving that, and sex is traded for a burger instead of a lifetime of love and security, they turn to government.
republicans are supposed to be the “take care of yourself” party.
Dems are the “we’ll take care of you and your kids from cradle to grave” party.
Makes it VERY hard to win with them on a national basis.
For get the “interpretations” of the article and look solely at the numbers (assuming a poll of women only):
Trump 67% Unfavorable, 26% Favorable
Cruz 54% Unfavorable, 29% Favorable
Frankly, the numbers aren’t good for either of them. If I were a woman, I’d be wondering about the poll MOE, the political affiliations, and voter likelihood first.
Count me among the little girls then, because all I see is an obnoxious blowhard spouting off “conservative” platitudes.
When he gets some meat behind the crap he says, I’ll reconsider my opinion of him.
NR...nuff said.
By the end of this campaign, the NR will be trailing Slate and Salon.
Trump’s wife has stated, quite often, that she is not going to campaign for him. That this election his thing and she just supports what he does.
His own children admit not registering to vote and even consider not voting for him.
Tells me a lot.
Women voters don’t care if elite women or pretty women with no problems,get attacked on the campaign trail.
Women are so worried about Megyn Kelly’s ratings and legacy.
I wonder if he needs more white women on his campaign. He’s got like 10 black women and all the white women are his relatives.
Really? Wow... All this time, I thought I was a woman.
‘cause I really, really, really to infinite LIKE TRUMP!
These are NOT “snow flakes”, trust me.
“Then there is supposed to be a bias against Trump from women voters, but this survey does not bear that out. A full
47% of female respondents say they are voting Trump,
while only a slightly larger number, 50% of male respondents say they will be casting their votes for Donald Trump.
So actual raw statistics prove that there is neither a bias against Trump from women or Latino voters.
REal Clear Politics NY
Well, yes, there is all that, but. . . .
Apparently the women folk don't like Cruz either.
Well, yes, but. . . .
His own children admit not registering to vote and even consider not voting for him.
Tells me a lot.

But his children are out campaigning for him in various states, spending hours and hours in support of their father.
This says it all.
But, but . . . ANGRY!! THE WALL!! ANGRY!!!!!
Well, now you know.
Here is an interesting point for the aufhor of thiz articld to think about:
My liberal feminist family members (and their friends) HATE Hillary and love Bernie. They will not support Hillary if she wins the nomination (steals it from Bernie).
Blacks support Hillary...and do not support Bernie. Without Hillary, there is no one for them to support in November.
I think the Democrats have big problems to worry about. They should be more concerned about this than worrying about Trump’s media generated problem with women.
