Comment on How the Fuck did Trump Actually Win - F.D Singifier
WoahWoah@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago7% more women voted for Trump in 2024 vs. 2020. Trump has actually been gaining with women – and that’s not exclusively white women despite the current narrative. Trump actually lost support from white women for the first time since 2016.
20% more latinas voted for Trump than 2020. Trump has steadily gained Latina votes since 2016. 5% more Asian women. Trump gained support from women and people under 30 and most men. His biggest gains are probably the Latine and youth vote. Latinos shifted tremendously in their support of Trump.
Anyway, the point is, it seems as though an anti-woman political platform actually increases women’s support for that candidate. Obviously it’s probably reasonable to conclude there are other compelling issues, but the idea that targeting women in a political platform actually decreases overall support from people with higher levels of education, but not from women themselves.
