His interview with influencer Adin Ross earlier this week is part of a broader effort to answer Kamala Harrisās nomination with an unabashed courtship of too-online misogynists.
UFC head Dana White, theĀ wife beater, is āa fighter.ā North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is āvery tough,ā while Chinaās Xi Jinping is āstrong.ā Elon Musk, the transphobe who has turned X into a megaphone for bigotry, is a āgenius.ā So said Donald Trump during his 75-minute livestreamedĀ interviewĀ with Adin Ross, the 23-year-old gamer and influencer.
The adjectives and verbs for all of the women they discussed were very different. Kamala Harris was said to be āweakā and āstupid,ā Nancy Pelosi and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez were ācrazy,ā and AOC was described as ārantingā and āscreaming.ā And, of course, there was that appellation Trump applies to every womanāmost famously to Hillary Clinton in theirĀ final debateĀ in 2016āwho doesnāt supplicate herself before him: ānasty.ā
In other words, the interview was vintage Trumpāthe latest of a million-plus examples proving that, no matter how many smarmy advisers and gullible political reporters insist otherwise, he is incapable of changing who he is for political expediency. Heās an out-and-proud misogynist who intends to appeal to closeted misogynistsāand no one should be happier about that fact than Kamala Harris.
As a group, do these guys vote? Iām thinking in very low numbers.
Whatever proportion of them that do vote will vote for Trump specifically because of the āgrab them by the pussyā comment.
I still remember when everyone was talking about this to show Trump fans what a piece of shit he is. How naive we were back then, I think youāre right that him saying that just made the crazies love him more.
Most of adinās viewers arenāt even old enough to vote.
