Educated white women were already recoiling from Trump. Then came Kavanaugh.
CNN ^ | October 2, 2018 | Analysis by Ronald Brownstein

Posted on 10/02/2018 4:50:47 PM PDT by McGruff

Even before Christine Blasey Ford delivered her controlled but explosive testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee last week, college-educated white women like her represented a rising threat to Republican prospects in the November election.

But Ford's detailed allegations of sexual assault against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh could allow Democrats to solidify an unprecedented advantage among those women, who represent one of the few steadily growing components of the white electorate.

Coming even as many professional white women are already recoiling from President Donald Trump's definition of the Republican Party, and Democrats have nominated an unprecedented number of professional women for Congress, the collision between Kavanaugh and Ford -- a professional herself -- has the potential to reinforce a lasting shift in loyalties that could tip the partisan balance in white-collar suburbs around America.

At a friend’s house, I saw the colleague was on Tucker tonight. She came across as quite a reasonable woman - even as a liberal.

Yes, the Muslim woman that Fair attacked for daring to vote for President Trump.

Why in the HELL has Georgetown not fired her yet? I'll tell you why: because they have uber liberals and secularists in charge there - and have for years.

Georgetown has some pretty buildings. As far as it's claim to "academic scholarship" these days, it is in the toilet.

Educated white women were already recoiling from Trump.

So?

The UN-educated and DEPLORABLE ones VASTLY outnumber them!

Which makes you wonder what their degrees were in.

And how many of them were LUG; too.

That would have been one of the few questions that would have been useful in that whole travesty.

This is another:

Mr. Kavanaugh; when did you stop beating your wife?

Considering yard signs or tv ads, I find it VERY hard to determine which party candidates are aligned with.

Getting a LOT of repeating on TODAY this morning!

They want to harangue Trump about mocking; but I think the vapidity of Ford is more exposed.

You know the ones that shouldn’t be allowed to vote because they don’t know any better.

Keep THIS up and I'll be forced to post youtube videos of Obama voters!

Elitists like this should be ignored. I know a number of very well educated women who voted for Trump.

Not all of them were white, so I'm not sure if this soy boy would include them among the snooty little bunch of pseudo-intellectuals he pretends to be concerned about.

I know of at least 6 who have switched parties because of what the party of slavery and lynching has devolved into, after their disgusting behavior in the Kavanaugh hearings.

The DimWits are losing support, as witnessed in the recent growth of the Walk Away Movement.

Thank you, Mr. President, for giving them a glimpse into hell to dream about when they're trying to sleep.

Notice they clarify with “may”. They say “may” a lot. So, when you say they are wrong, and show them, they can say they didn’t say it WOULD.

They only wish. I am an educated white woman and I am not wavering in the least in my support for President Trump. I feel more strongly than ever that he is the right person for the job.

Liberal pussy hat women have never supported Trump and never will. What a surprise...
