As Suburban Women Turn to Democrats, Many Suburban Men Stand With Trump
The New York Times ^ | October 13, 2018 | Trip Gabriel

DUBLIN, Ohio — Robert Peters and George Fidelibus walked off the 18th green at the Golf Club of Dublin, then carried pints of beer to the patio overlooking the course, which was framed by $500,000 homes.

Their conversation quickly turned to the president.

“I’m feeling better and better about him all the time,” said Mr. Peters, 63, a retired engineer, who had once been cool to Mr. Trump.

Mr. Fidelibus, 75, a retired banker in a Calloway hat, had also once been skeptical of the president’s bullying and lack of self-control.

“I’m a supporter of Trump now,” he said “He may not always say things the way most presidents before him said them, but what does it matter? They didn’t get the job done.”

As an edgy, divided nation heads into a crucial election, much of the attention is focused on the anti-Trump animus of suburban women, which seems to have gained a few degrees in intensity over the Supreme Court confirmation of Brett M. Kavanaugh.

Much less examined are their male counterparts. While recent polls show that white women with a college degree favor Democratic House candidates by a large margin, 20 points or more, white college-educated men — who focus more singularly on economic issues, according to surveys — are a potential bulwark for the president and his party. It is especially true in suburban battleground districts that are likely to help decide the next House majority....

Why would any woman support muslim loving Democrats?

Pure BS from the Slimes and I am not buying what they are selling.

I know plenty of suburban white women who are pro-Trump. (I am a 50 something white grandmother, although I am not exactly suburban I know may who are).

...said he wrote in Mr. Kasich’s name in 2016, rather than cast a ballot for Mr. Trump. “But now I’m a big supporter,” he said of the president.

He asked to be identified only by his first name, Sam, because he fears a backlash for his business if he publicly supports the president.

“I feel he’s done a marvelous job,” he said....

Other men who back Mr. Trump in Dublin were also unwilling to let their full names be used. They did not want to inflame clients, colleagues or family members.

This is one part of the hidden vote... there are others...

you should really THINK first before you cast your votes.

Herein lies the problem. They are not thinking, it's an emotional decision. And, of course, this accusation does not apply to all women, but if 51% of them vote for the loonies, we have a problem.

“Hey stupid women......you DO know that this can happen to your Husbands “

And when that happens, that kills Hubby’s career, which devastates the finances, which destabilizes the family, and on and on. Women are idiots; I’m ashamed to be one sometimes.

About 70 % of my Gop county Volunteers

You are assuming that this group is a representative of GOP voters and of women voters in your county. That is irrational, and almost certainly erroneous.

I reject their assumptions. Plenty of college educated white ladies support Trump.

The New Yoek Slimes is trying to keep with the Leberal narratiuvee that sexist, racist men support the Republicans while women oppose the Republican war on men or some such lib/commie garbage.

“...fake news crock of crap...”

Well put - also - most normal women saw through BlaseyFraud’s lying little girl voice act in the first minute of her scripted story that was supposed to pass as “testimony”. Slimes: trying to imply that Fraud convinced us (women) in the hopes that we will vote ‘rat with our fake “peers” who “believe the women”.

BS! We have husbands, sons, brothers and fathers.

You’re right stonehouse... White suburban college-educated women who support Trump are at MORE risk of being shunned than their white middle class husbands. They're also part of the ‘secret Trump vote’...

There you go again, inserting realism into the discussion. It spoils the fun for everyone.

Suburban Women don’t like their Husband’s having Jobs?

They don’t like keeping the money their Husband’s make rather than handing it over the Government?

They love MS-13?

I am not convinced, either. These women have sons, husbands, brothers, fathers, uncles, nephews, and cousins.

Maybe the college educated and single social workers with cats may support the Demonrats.

Which is why they're losing their minds about Kanye West and Jim Brown.

Exactly. The winners in the political games are those who pay attention to the details and fight for every vote. In the case of the Democrats, if they can't get enough votes, they head to the nursing homes and help the patients fill out their absentee ballots.

I agree with you. I don’t believe the article either.

It is just propaganda.

Those who stood with Trump before and elected him, are and will continue to be with him.

Just be sure to VOTE to help continue to MAGA!
