As for 'deplorables', that was never meant to depict all who voted for Trump..it was meant to depict those who were extreme..who were racist...misogynist...White Nationalists...KKK....anti-muslim...etc., etc..

So no..those women who voted their conscience and chose Trump were not deplorable.

BTW..the 'according to some exit polls'....is not a ringing endorsement of the accuracy..IMO.
Lol, that's not who Hillary was talking about.

Why do you think this is and what does it say about the women who voted for him to you? Did their vote make a difference or would he have won regardless because of the electoral college system? Are these women considered part of the 'deplorables' to the ones pointing fingers for their losses instead of accepting defeat?

It tells me 51% of all white women are now regretting their vote. The other 2% are still OK with him.

Therefore, 53% of white women are intelligent....sounds about right.

Clinton was accompanied by a veiled woman
For this reason, white women felt the danger of their election because they may also impose on the Americans the veil

Hillary Clinton had to be the single most detested mainstream nominee to ever run in the general. Nobody actually liked her, but the DNC foisted her on us anyway.

Why were they so delusional to think that someone as universally hated as her would win?

And I say this as a young non-white female who did NOT vote for Trump. (Gary Johnson was my reluctant pick)

RE -- Women who didn't vote for Hillary.
Democrats spend 24/7 time protesting and screaming about Trump's verbal sexual insults, yet they hypocritically embrace a religion and ideology that truly oppresses, sexually assaults, and tortures women around the world.......American women get it.

My ex and I had a conversation before the election, and she said she simply does not like Hillary, found her to be shady. She said she was not nuts about Trump either, but he was better than Clinton. That seems to be the problem, Hillary came off as stiff and not inspiring.
I generally agree, but....

....are you saying Hillary does? .....Remember the 'Baking Cookies' comment?....I'm guessing not. Ask your ex if she remembers Hillary's 'Baking Cookies' comment.

It sets an extremely bad example for the next generation and the reputation of our country.

Women are not objects like they are treated in other country's.

As a woman and I am sure many women feel the same, I do not vote based primarily on outward personality quirks I vote according to my alignment with issues important to me and the country. Personality of a candidate is secondary. I actually find Trumps crassness a bit refreshing. At least you know what your getting as opposed to some others who I would define as two faced.

Perhaps many women are accustom to "here, hold my beer and watch this" kind of men who also are often rude braggarts that dont have anything of substance to say.
