'If He Hated Women So Much, How Could He Be Married 3 Times?'
Women For Trump Want to Know: 'If He Hated Women So Much, How Could He Be Married 3 Times?'
http://theslot.jezebel.com/women-for-trump-want-to-know-if-he-hated-women-so-much-1788069782
On Thursday at 4 p.m., a ten-yard stretch outside of Trump Tower in Manhattan felt like the stands of a high school football game, if the stakes were much higher, the stands were metal barricades, the coaches were police, and one team’s fans chanted “Lock-her-up!”
I was curious to see who would respond to the mysteriously under-advertised graphic posted Wednesday on the Facebook page for “Women for Trump New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut,” faction operating under the larger “Women For Trump” coalition. When I arrived, I found 50 or so women, many between ages 50 and 70 and identifying as working or retired suburban mothers, holding purple “Women for Trump” signs. Many of them hadn’t heard of Wednesday’s anti-Trump “Pussy Power” protests; they’d just come to show that moms and women outside the city have political opinions too.
On her way out of the barricades, I caught Zulma, who’d been holding a “Latina for Trump” sign and stopped to give me a quick spiel on immigration. “Women are the ones affected by open borders,” she said. “Last year 70,000 women were assaulted by illegal immigrants. I have two daughters, and I’ll be damned if that happens to them,” she said. “That good?” She marched off.
Barbara, a black minister from Harlem, believes that Obama and Clinton are “godless” in their stances on marriage equality and abortion, and she’s tired of the “same Democratic games.” “If Trump hated women so much, how could he be married three times?” she asked. “The Democrats who are accusing him are probably the same ones shacking up around the corner. And watching pornography!”
