To say this year’s Republican presidential ticket does not know how to talk to or about women, or figure out what matters to them, would be the understatement of the century. And I sure hope they keep it up.
It’s all mind-boggling, from nominee Donald Trump’s racist, sexist ramblings about Vice President Kamala Harris to the, ah, unusual views of his running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, on parenthood. Now the hapless pair are digging in deeper as they try to cope with the post-Roe vs. Wade world — the one brought about by Trump’s Supreme Court appointees and celebrated by Vance.
There are two major obstacles in their path, and they are related. One is the shift of women — specifically white, college-educated, Republican women — away from Trump and the GOP. They’re turned off by their party’s “cultural extremism,” says Mike Madrid, a Sacramento-based never-Trump author, strategist and election data analyst.
The second obstacle is that Trump and Vance are in denial. “I think that abortion has become much less of an issue. I think it’s actually going to be a very small issue,” Trump said at his Mar-a-Lago news conference Aug. 8. “I think the abortion issue has been taken down many notches. I don’t think it’s a big factor anymore.”
Vance went the same route when Fox News host Laura Ingraham told him that according to a “dear friend” of hers, “all these suburban women, all they care about is abortion.” Vance replied: “I don’t buy that, Laura. I think most suburban women care about the normal things that most Americans care about. Right? They care about inflation. They care about the price of groceries. They care about...”

L A Times? Seriously?
I’m sick hearing about “suburban women “. Remember “soccer moms”?
And why do they think suburban women care about abortion? The ones I know have 3 to 5 kids.
Why does someone in MA or CA care about how TX does things?
Don’t go there. Move. Whatever.
Allow people to live different lives in different states.
Who can’t get one or ten?
Extremely rare and unfortunate left the stage long ago.
So Donald Trump can’t talk about women... But a Cat lady who’s never had a child (I wonder why???) and is the stepmother to a child who has obviously gone bad... Can relate to women???
The abortion question... How many has Kamala had? Will surely come up at some point.
Just because they have kids doesn’t mean they are pro-life. Trust me...I know of quite a few.
LA Times...they know they are losing. Hysteria this AM in the MSM, a level 15.... They know they have a Cackling Curry\Halfrican loser on their hands.
The cultists vote.
Also do the Trump is a meanie and Vance hate cat ladies cult.
Thats the problem.
Solution:
Find the reasonable women and make sure they vote.
I’m a man, the subject comes up and I shut up around women.
Maybe I should speak up.
“And why do they think suburban women care about abortion?”
Because they do.
It’s a left only rag nothing to see move along.
The pro abortion crowd dangerously misunderstand what it is and its ultimate consequences.
She’s right, as I have been saying for a few years now. American women are increasingly immoral and narcissistic - representing a majority in Gen Z and young Millennials. This issue is a 100% loser for the GOP.
Bingo. Abortion is the modern day version of human sacrifice. Pecker puss Pelosi called abortion a sacrament. Republicans can’t believe that Democrats are Satan worshippers. I do.
LAT dangerously misunderstands how people feel about their freedom...
Trump dangerously misunderstands how voters feel about abortion access

No he doesn’t.
I wonder how many abortions Herr Harris has had.
WRONG! Not when it comes to late term abortion. Or after birth abortion. Or about allowing a baby who has been unsuccessfully aborted to die.
Those abortion issues have forced even moderate conservatives to vote against all abortion laws presented by Democrats to be legislation.
Because Democrats will take and take and take until they get abortion on demand.
They really screwed the pooch on abortion.
