Suburban women recoil as Trump dives into racial politics

ROOKFIELD, Wis. (AP) — Carol Evans approves of Donald Trump’s immigration policy. She gives him credit for the strong economy. But the Republican from the affluent Milwaukee suburbs of Waukesha County, a GOP bedrock in the state, just can’t commit to voting for the president next year like she did in 2016.

“I just don’t like the way he talks about other people,” Evans, a 79-year-old retired data entry supervisor, said recently as she walked through a shopping mall in Brookfield, Wisconsin, days after Trump fired off a racist tweet at Democratic congresswomen.

The president’s recent return to racial politics may be aimed at rallying his base of white working-class voters across rural America. But the risks of the strategy are glaring in conversations with women like Evans.

"Suburban women?"

I think that's more "God's waiting room" woman.

I think you meant Baltimore? Boston’s pretty clean, comparatively speaking. The only thing infesting Boston is over-privileged Leftists.

I did indeed. Thanks for correcting that.

Sorry, Bostonians ... I messed up.

FU you old biddy (I’m 79 too). How about the way other people talk about him? He’s a fighter and doesn’t take crap lying down.

My Aunt is like that and she drives me crazy. She voted back in the 1990s for Bill Clinton solely because of his looks, “he looks good and I get a good feeling from him”...Like you said, “feelings”. And of course she voted for Obama for the same reason. I tell her fans of Hitler felt the same way. Hitler made his supporters “feel good”...”Oh but that’s different” she says. No it is not. Character is thrown right out the window in favor of “feelings” so essentially what she voted for was a rapist and then a guy who supported radical Islam.

Evans, a 79-year-old retired data entry supervisor...

Evans needs to stay with the facts.

Baltimore IS the most violent city in the United States.

Baltimore's black community that has been given hundreds of millions of dollars over the years WITH NO discernible improvement. No one knows where the money has gone...

Cummings IS the person who represents the Baltimore black community.

Cummings appears to be more concerned about the rights of illegals than people living in Baltimore.

Baltimore is a corrupt democrat city. TRUMP WANTS TO HEAL THE CITY AND BRING BLACK RESIDENTS INTO THE FIRST WORLD.

Trump has created more jobs for the black community than all the other Presidents... real jobs - not walking around jobs... If Evans is offended by that - she should vote for the party that created black democrat hellholes in our once beautiful cities..

An article about the press gloating about republicans believing the tweets are racist because the press said so. Ok.

Are they trying to make the argument that Women are stupid and should have never been given the Right to Vote?

A couple of Misogynists masquerading as Journalists.

They certainly aren't stupid but they're (statistically) not logical thinkers so (IMHO) they should have never been given the Right to Vote.

Doylestown & Newton in PA? Be hard pressed to find 2 snottier, more virtue-signaling places in this area. Wouldn’t be hard to scope out just the right ones to interview, either. Old Obama, I’m with Her, and Bernie stickers & “Hate Has No Home Here” signs abound, but these sort of suburban women couldn’t be bothered to take a couple bottles of cold water out to the Hondurans trimming the hedges during the commercial break on “The View”. I’m in Bucks County too and plenty of women around here like President Trump just fine, they just tend to keep it quiet.

NOT voting for Trump means the following for Suburban Woman:

Schools OVERRUN and OVERPOPULATED with illegal Immigrants
Crowded Classrooms
These students with little health screening will pose huge health risks
Hospitals and healthcare providers will be overwhelmed.
Quality of Life greatly diminished.

Why does DRUDGE peddle such propaganda? This is more than just pure ‘fake news’, it’s utter and complete bullsht!

Look up the AP “authors”, they are pure liberal propagandists passing off as “reporters”.

This is worse than the days of PRAVDA!

Yeah Drudge has been going leftist lately. He constantly posts BS on his headlines that the left makes up, I don’t know what his problem is.

The AP quotes ONE woman.

Then tells us that out of “more than 3 dozen interviews” (between 37 and 48) with “women like Evans” in 3 cities, “almost all” expressed opinions somewhat similar to hers.

Gimme a break.
Transparent manipulation of readers.
“OMG!! **Women** think this! I need to think this way too!”

I wouldn’t get too put out by suburban women. It’s very likely this story has been fabricated or at least twisted and spun to paint a picture.

It turns out their sample was 40 women and only one had previously voted for Trump. The rest of them never liked Trump to begin with.

There seems to be quite a few men on this site who hate women.. Whether it was a bad marriage or a bad dating career - who knows - but it never goes away.

I know dozens of suburban women, not one has changed their mind about Trump.
