Why Women Should Consider Trump

The Misconception

Dear fellow women, you are being manipulated. Falling for this particular deception won’t only impact you, it will affect all of us. I am a prosperous 30-something divorced, white, childless, American woman with multiple postgraduate degrees and a busy career. I have lived abroad in several metropolitan cities and I own my home. According to every single statistic, I should be a single cat lady who despises J.D. Vance. I should also have a strong dislike for Donald Trump. But I don’t.

The Importance of Voting

It’s important to remember that the presidency is not a popularity contest. There seems to be some confusion on that front. You aren’t casting a ballot for Prom Queen, you’re voting for the leader of the free world. This is why the Electoral College exists. I’ve heard other women say they’re voting for Vice President Kamala Harris because “she’s more iconic” than Trump. But what about inflation, foreign or domestic policy, war, immigration, education, human trafficking, or any other serious issue?

Real Pro-Women Policies

The truth is, if you actually voted for real pro-women policies, you’d vote for Trump. The Left is aware of this. That's why the Democratic Party has spent an enormous amount of money making Abortion the number one issue for women. White women alone make up 40% of the electoral vote and 89 million American women total are registered to vote, making us the largest voting bloc in the nation. In 2020, swing states like Arizona, Michigan, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania saw women vote at record rates, with Biden winning 57% of female voters.

The Power of Women

We hold serious power. This is why Democrats want to convince women that the unrestricted right to abortion is more important than the right to vote, freedom of speech, or any other right you can think of. They equate abortion with being female and tell them they are physically under attack by the GOP. They also include the Supreme Court in this narrative. Democrats have done such a good job with this indoctrination that, in a recent viral video, young women said they would rather have the right to an abortion over the right to vote. What are they teaching girls in schools these days?

Consider the Bigger Picture

However, even if you're a passionately pro-choice voter, it's misguided to consider abortion as the critical issue at stake in this election. Trump has already stated he doesn't favor a national abortion ban and would veto any such bill. According to KFF, only 14% of American women - or 7% of the American population - have had an abortion at some point in their life, 21% being Black, 19% Hispanic, and 11% White women.

Focus on Everyday Issues

In contrast, 100% of Americans - women included - have to buy food, pay medical bills, and want to know their tax dollars are going to help them in an emergency. Just ask the victims of Hurricane Helene who were offered a measly $750 after FEMA gave billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars away to noncitizens and foreign countries under the Biden Harris Administration.

Trump's Record

Trump's record is worth a closer look by female voters. The former president approved the largest paid parental leave program in history, guaranteeing 12 weeks of paid leave. He directed more than $200 million per year to technology education grants for women and programs that encouraged STEM careers. He founded the Women’s Global Development and Prosperity Initiative, the first-ever government program focused on advancing women’s “full and free participation” in the global economy. Trump also highlighted under-the-radar domestic women’s issues, establishing a task force for missing and murdered Native American women. Under the Trump administration, women’s unemployment reached the lowest level in 67 years and women received over 70 % of new jobs.

What Really Matters

Trump recently observed, “Women want to have safety. They want to have a strong military. They want to have a strong police force… They want to be in their house and they want to be safe. … I hope they like my personality… But to me, it wouldn’t be very important, the personality.” He's right. This is not a personality contest. It's not about which candidate is more "iconic." It is our duty as citizens to vote for the best policies, laws, and chances for us and our loved ones to thrive for years to come. Women voters are no exception to this rule.

Final Thoughts

So, from one potential single cat lady to a nation of others, consider this: voting for the rich white man in this election doesn’t make you evil. It makes you wise.

Bottom Line

It's crucial to look beyond the surface when deciding who to vote for. The personality of a candidate or their popularity should not be the deciding factor. Instead, focus on the policies and how they will impact you and your loved ones. What do you think about this perspective?
