NextImg:Trump's Unsettling New Message For Women Is Creeping People TF Out
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Donald Trump is trying a new approach to winning over women voters by telling them that they are depressed, poor, anxious, unsafe and thinking about abortion ― but as their “protector,” he will change all that.

“I always thought women liked me,” Trump said at a rally in Pennsylvania on Monday. “I never thought I had a problem, but the fake news keeps saying women don’t like me. I don’t believe it.”

Polls show Vice President Kamala Harris currently leading by anywhere from 13 to 21 percentage points among women.

Trump read an extended version of an all-caps rant he posted last week on his Truth Social website as he insisted that women are in dire need of his protection.

“Because I am your protector,” Trump said. “I want to be your protector. As president, I have to be your protector, I hope you don’t make too much of it. I hope the fake news doesn’t go ‘oh he wants to be their protector.’ Well I am. As president, I have to be your protector.”

He added:

“You will no longer be abandoned, lonely or scared. You will no longer be in danger, you’re not gonna be in danger any longer. You will no longer have anxiety from all of the problems our country has today. You will be protected and I will be your protector. Women will be happy, healthy, confident and free. You will no longer be thinking about abortion.”

Trump has a long history of misogynistic rhetoric, from his infamous “grab them by the pussy” claim to his sexist attacks on Harris. He has also been accused of sexual misconduct, and last year a jury found him liable for sexual abuse against writer E. Jean Carroll.

Given that background, many found his comments on Monday to be insincere and downright creepy:

The guy who sexually assaults women, brags about grabbing women by the p***y, and is the number one reason women have lost their reproductive rights in this country would like you to know he's here to protect you. ???? #HarrisWalz2024 ????️ https://t.co/c7Vdk34frT

Creepy Trump saying to women, "I want to be your protector ... you will no longer be abandoned, lonely, or scared. You will no longer be in danger ... you will no longer be thinking about abortion."

It's a cult. https://t.co/5Se0hz21fO

So here's the thing:

This is not really "Trump address[ing] women." This is Trump addressing men.

This is how he thinks men want to hear other men speak to women.

Stick together, women. Voting blue this November is the ultimate act of covering someone else's drink at the bar. https://t.co/PVvoz1UdYV

Sexism aside, no candidate for president should talk to any American citizens like this. The president is our representative. He's not our king. He's not our savior. This is how a cult leader talks to his followers, not the way a president talks to free and equal citizens. https://t.co/NQ6XRbfY5u

I would rather take my chances alone in a forest with a hungry grizzly bear than find out what he thinks protection means.
