Women for Trump – his female fans speak out
Politico.com ^ | 06/09/2016 | DANIEL LIPPMAN and BEN SCHRECKINGER

Politico interviewed more than two dozen women who support Trump — elected Republican officials and political activists — and while many wouldn’t condone his more controversial comments, almost all saw a Trump different from the one presented on television screens nationwide.

Many of the women pointed to Trump’s successful and popular children as the measure of his character. Some said the presumptive nominee reminded them of their own fathers or husbands, and others said they saw Trump in themselves. Several rejected the notion that gender should have anything to do with the way they choose a president.

----------------------------------------

“I have known politicians for over 35 years and I have never had a more kindhearted one look me straight in the eye and talk to me about the United States of America,” said Sue Lynch, former president of the National Federation of Republican Women who originally supported Scott Walker’s presidential bid. In April, she met Trump, snapped a photo with him, and took his measure after a campaign stop in her hometown of La Crosse, Wisconsin. “I was overwhelmed by the kindness of that gentleman,” she said.

------------------------------------

Becca Reese, 57, of Columbia, South Carolina, owns a metal manufacturing company and is a Trump campaign volunteer who says she has met the candidate a handful of times. When it comes to Trump’s barbed attacks on prominent women, Reese could not agree more. “What he said about Rosie O’Donnell is perfectly true,” she said, adding, “Megyn Kelly is a bitch and she will either keep her job and continue on or she will lose her job over this campaign.”

WHY ARE WE STILL LETTING THE LEFTIST MEDIA SET THE AGENDA?

The agenda is all about how Trump is this or that.

The Agenda COULD BE about why HilLIARy is not in jail yet for this or that.

All well and good but the main reason Trump is doing well is that he is exposing the Globalists and Traitors in the GOP with his border security, anti globalisation, pro American agenda.

My wife watches CBS This Morning - About half the show is Trump bashing stories and the other half is Pro-Hillary - we both laugh out loud at the obvious bias.

Women recognize a male who isn’t afraid to be a man - having two X chromosomes makes one female - not necessarily a woman....

If the violence was against Hillary or Bernie people it would be the top story all the time, never ending about us. We are in very dangerous times here.

There is some truth in that article that some women see their father or husband in Donald. I see my dad in him. My father was an alpha male, but not rich. With the thick brow and thick neck that Donald has and I do see some slight mannerism that Donald has that my father has. The only difference my father didn’t like to swear. LOL No doubt my father would have voted for Donald even my mother.
