(25,479 posts)Based on the article, it's an accurate summation. We've known for a very long time that there's a gender gap in Trump's support.
"A majority of men 54 percent said that Trump respects women either a lot or some. Just 31 percent of women saw things that way."
To a hammer, everything looks like a nail, I guess.
Think. Again.

It was not just an accusation - a jury found he was liable for sexual abuse, and the judge said it would be called "rape" in most jurisdictions. The NYT did not ask its male interviewers about that rape, just the consensual affair with Stormy Daniels.
They are minimizing rape. That's why they need an intervention.

(101,361 posts)With an appalling article, the headline can't really save it. The sub-head is a self-satirizing "views differ" piece of crap - it could have been "Sexual abuse apparently not a problem for them", but the NYT really doesn't care, do they?

(120 posts)They made sure the most eye catching part was TRUMP RESPECTS WOMEN. The fact that women disagree is much smaller. (As I think Nevilledog was indicating. )

Plus, reichwing tax slashing and deregulation policies always favor corporations. I understood this reality when I was about 10, but most of murca stumbles in the dark.
