Kamala Harris’ campaign appears to have only one strategy to earn female votes, says author and conservative social media influencer Isabel Brown.
“To the elected Left today, I think women equal votes for abortion,” Brown says, adding that too many Democrats see women as “a dollar sign associated with the abortion industry.”
While Democrats’ strategy to win female voters this election cycle is laser-focused on abortion, the Left is working hard to appeal to men after spending the better part of two decades demonizing masculinity.
In an effort to sweep previous concerns about “toxic masculinity” under the rug, Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, have discussed their ownership of guns and released a campaign ad in which men brag about eating “carburetors for breakfast” and cooking “steak rare.”
The Harris campaign’s effort to appeal to male voters before Nov. 5 is likely driven, at least in part, by data showing that male voters of Generation Z increasingly lean to the political right.
“Gen Z men, namely 17-year-olds, seniors in high school right now, are politically the most conservative they’ve been in America in 50 years,” Brown says.
According to an Axios report on a recent Harvard Youth Poll, 26% of men ages 18 to 24 say they identify as conservative, which is five percentage points higher than men ages 25 to 29.
Although Gen Z women skew heavily to the left, even news outlets such as The New York Times acknowledge that some young men “feel that rapidly changing gender roles have left them behind socially and economically,” Brown says, and “see former President Donald J. Trump as a champion of traditional manhood.”
With less than two weeks until the 2024 presidential election, the battle for the Gen Z vote likely is already settled.
Brown joins “Problematic Women” to discuss the role of the abortion issue in the election and how Democrats have isolated young male voters.
Also on today’s show, we dig into concerns over the damaging effects of various forms of birth control, and Brown shares her own story of how “the pill” changed her life for years.
