Men are flocking to Trump because the Left has done nothing but demonize them for nearly a decade.
It seems to have suddenly occurred to the Democrats that they have a problem with men. Oh, we know they have a problem with men. That’s all we’ve heard about for the past ten years ever since Donald Trump committed the great crime of beating Hillary Clinton.
I know because I used to be one of them — the #stillwithher type who marched with hundreds of thousands of women to protest the Trump election. And the one who said #metoo and fought every day as a brave member of the resistance? Yeah, that was me. But to quote Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven, I ain’t like that no more.
And speaking of Clint Eastwood, you know what was a universal attraction for men and women? Masculine male heroes. And you want to know what Hollywood decided it didn’t need anymore? Masculine male heroes. Hollywood’s problem is now the Democrats’ problem. The box office has become a ghost town, and men are fleeing the Democratic Party in droves.
This gave someone in the Harris/Walz campaign the bright idea to form “White Dudes for Harris,” one of the most ill-conceived campaign pitches of my lifetime. It’s as though an extraterrestrial came down to the planet Earth and thought, “How can we lure in the males of this species?”
Apparently, the Harris campaign is spending $10 million on this mess. Do they really think they’re going to convince a single “white dude” with that ad? Maybe the self-hating ones.
But it won’t work. The reasons they cite for choosing the Democrats are all of the main reasons so many are voting for Trump in the first place. To quote Robert DeNiro playing a man afflicted with “toxic masculinity” in Raging Bull, it defeats its own purpose.
The only men who would proudly and publicly join that group are men who have no self-respect left because they’ve spent much of the past decade apologizing for their existence and de-centering themselves from the narrative, all the while getting a pat on the head from the women in their lives. The more wealth and power they have, the more likely they’ll put on that shirt and shake that groove thing.
And they’re surprised somehow that it didn’t work, that men didn’t flock to join a group that drained their testosterone faster than walking in on James Carville’s grandma naked. How did they think this was a good idea again? What preachy millennial childless cat lady made that call?
Meanwhile, Jen Paski does what many of the women of the Left do: attempt to redefine their idea of masculinity. Even Doug Emhoff isn’t buying it. He looks terrified, like he’s gotten in too deep, and he can’t find his way out of this mess......SNIP
Too late.
I held the door open for a female (can’t say lady) the other day and got a nasty look as she sneered “I don’t need a man to open a door.
Thing is, if someone is near enough, man or woman, young or old, black or white, I hold the door. It’s common courtesy.
The mohammedans get one thing right ...

Quote of the month…
I had one do that to me a couple years ago, I smiled and said my mother, a strong woman, taught me to be kind to everyone, even those that don’t deserve it.
My picture was leaked!!!
Seriously, there’s no such thing as “toxic masculinity”.
If you’re beating people up for no reason, beating women, shooting people in a rage....none of that has anything to do with Masculinity.
Those guys just used to be called pieces of...well...
My pop NEVER included any of that when teaching me about how to be a man.
Can testosterone cause males to be more aggressive than females....yeah nature designed it that way so we could hunt without running :)
If one is taught wrongly what masculinity is....then that person was not taught Masculinity.
If someone shows you a grapge and describes as an apple, then it has nothing to do with the grape.
That was THE WEIRDEST comparison i’ve ever made!! :)
Let’s give these radical Muslims some credit. They know damn well that adopting Western-style feminism is the surest path to complete subjugation and slavery.
There is no conceivable way for someone like me to vote for Harris.
No amount of hate for Trump or any other BS excuse could even come close to making sense.
Trump is NOT my ideal, but I like what he was trying to do for our Economy last time. We literally NEED that now to survive as a World economic power...
We lose to the, literal, Communists... There will be nothing left of our Constitutional Republic.
A decade? These insidious little Communists have been at it for a century. Just take a look back at what Hollywood and the Propaganda Media have been promoting.
“Thing is, if someone is near enough, man or woman, young or old, black or white, I hold the door. It’s common courtesy.”
I do too.
nope! their “men” think its ok to rape little boys.
The best Westerners can do is to have one mother-in-law and three ex-mothers-in-law.
Who is that fag?
Their civilization is sustainable.
They are advertising the new shows. Just about every clip with a male in it is some mildly pretty boy who always looks like he’s apologizing for something.
Whatever aspect of maleness that serves the feminine purpose is a man's masculine responsibility, yet any aspect that disagrees with feminine primacy is labeled Patriarchy, "Male Privilege" or Misogyny."
