I saw a graphic recently that showed that college-educated white women turned out for Trump in a big way, but I don't remember the number.

Then I guess I'm not sane. I didn't vote for Trump.

If you thought those pink hats were actually women's hair, and if you thought they looked like vaginas...you must not be very experienced with either in real life.

The hats were not hair. And cat's ears don't look like women's privates. Any woman whose exterior genitalia looks like those hats is badly in need of corrective surgery.

The hats are a visual pun, designed to call attention to Trump's misogyny, foul language, and demeaning views of woman as sex objects for his personal entertainment. They seem to have worked pretty well for most sane, not so silent, well-informed people, who understood this, and they also served to build community and solidarity among those at the rallies and elsewhere.

BTW, the majority did NOT vote for Trump - Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by close to three million.

We'll be seeing more of these hats in the near future, don't doubt it. They are trending on eBay and other online marketplaces as I write this.

Not true. The majority of college educated female voters voted for Hillary.

You're right, it was a majority of white women overall that Trump won, 53% to 43%. Clinton won college-educated white women 51-45.

Like I said, political theater is good business. I'd take either side of the trade.

Don't doubt it, we've seen it for thousands of years, we'll see it for thousands more.

She beat Trump by 6% in that demographic, an underperformance of at least 10% of preelection predictions.

You're wrong, again. The poster stated that a majority of WHITE college educated female voters voted for Trump, which is absolutely correct.


Stop lying please.
