Every last Republican woman I know understood the consequences and never bought the idea the Billy Bush tape disqualified Trump.
My SIL actually said, "sheesh, he was just telling the truth about a certain kind of woman, get over it!" My only argument about the Bush tape was with a man. It was pretty contentious, and it was about how we couldn't vote for Trump because of the Bush tape.
He won in spite of that tape, he overcame it because he was srong enough to do so. White Republican women voted overwhelmingly for Trump, tis a fact.
Thanks for your response, and I will try to be encouraged.
