In a telegenic age, ensuring that candidates are pretty people to appeal to shallow, ill-informed voters is a great Trojan horse for our enemies.
It is obvious that one part of the plan to use communists and Islamists to fundamentally change America is to use good-looking people, mostly men, to get the votes of mainly women. (Although attractive young women like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who makes herself every girl’s best friend, are meant to appeal to both men and women.)
We have three good-looking, well-dressed, well-spoken men in office or running for office who are communists. Mamdani, to the shallow-minded, is handsome, with a crinkly, benign smile. He speaks well (if you don’t listen closely, and too many women don’t), is confident, and is thoroughly malevolent in his intent. He is not a “Democratic Socialist.” He is a communist, just as the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was communist, so let’s get that out of the way right quick.
Ditto the latest two handsome men: Abdul El-Sayed, the Democrat nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, and Oliver Larkin, who is running against U.S. Rep. Jared Moskowitz for the 2026 Democrat nomination in South Florida’s 25th Congressional District. They are making the rounds of TV interviews in hostile territory, such as Sean Hannity’s TV show. Both men are fit, handsome, and well-dressed. Eye candy for the female voter prone to feel rather than to think.
The problem with this approach—running good-looking people—is that they are very unlikely to be the ones who actually run the offices they win. You can bet good money that, like Biden, others will hold the power and the reins, controlling them from behind the scenes. The pretty public candidates are merely placeholders for the death-cult communists, socialists, and jihadists around the world.

Winston had disliked her from the very first moment of seeing her. He knew the reason. It was because of the atmosphere of hockey−fields and cold baths and community hikes and general clean−mindedness which she managed to carry about with her. He disliked nearly all women, and especially the young and pretty ones. It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy.
As in advertising to sell products, the democrats figured out that the female market is the easiest to sell to and manipulate, so they have started focusing on them.
Something that might surprise people is that I focused my plumbing company marketing on the female customer, nothing weird or obvious but the uniform appearance and colors used, and advertising were always done with the thought of appearing clean, approachable, and non-threatening to the female audience, I think it helped for the upscale S.Cal coast.
Reagan’s demeanor and way of explaining things appealed to female voters even though under that pleasant personality he was one of the toughest cases on foreign affairs and forcing change on the entire world order, that American government has ever produced.
The left is constantly scanning for, identifying and grooming useful idiots.
Could be the same commie ‘elites’ that run democrats are running commies. Similar styles come from focus groups...
Democrats will be running handsome men with military backgrounds and Commies will be running handsome men with charisma.... Democrats ignored the Nazi tattoo on one of their ‘placeholders’ because they don’t give a damn what these people are like on the inside - they’re selling the book cover - not the book.
True. Just like Thomas Sowell and Clearance Thomas are examples that a certain group of people (That Scott Adams advised to avoid) can occasionally produce great men.
Fixed.
“Communists are running pretty people to garner the female vote”
Too bad we cannot bring back the Founders to comment on this - something tells me that they would say that was EXACTLY why they excluded women from voting.
dont forget Hollywierd... The last 10 years of putting Arabs in leading roles on TV has paid off for them... just like another demographic. 60% of females know no better.
The far left hos will be trading in their little red riding hood capes for burkas after the mid terms.
Spock became a sex symbol to women in his day. How could such a cold logic driven alien evoke such a response? The biggest clue comes from when his popularity exploded: it was after his fight scene with Captain Kirk on Vulcan that the love letters started flowing in. A male that will fight for them must trigger a very deep instinct into the Female mind.
Why the Soviet Union lost the Cold War...they had a bunch of ugly guys like Brezhnev.
Funny thing though, Nixon said that Brezhnev was quite the ladies man.
There never should have been a female vote. That was the beginning of the end for America.
With apologies to the fine ladies of FR who vote the right way in America’s interest, you are not represenative of women at large. In almost every election on every level, there is a strong gender gap with Democrat, Leftist, and Socialist candidates typically getting more of the female vote while conservative candidates tend to get more of the male vote.
Women’s sufferage was logical from a Constitutional point of view, but the Constitution should never have granted the right of the vote to women in the first place. We would be far better off had women never received a constitutional right to vote.
Sad but true. I don’t like that fact and you don’t have to like that fact, but it does not change it from being a fact.
Television got JFK elected. It has been downhill for the democrats since.
Married women, demographically, vote correctly
Married women, demographically, vote correctly
It’s white women that are ruining this country. I am flabbergasted at the majority of the voters who are voting for these socialist are white Women.
Lobby women are more shallow than kiddie splash pools
Girl next door?
In Caracas maybe.
