Donald Trump says he will be the 91裸聊视频減rotector91裸聊视频� of women, whether they like it or not.

He91裸聊视频檚 campaigned with men who use sexist and crude language. He91裸聊视频檚 expressed alarm at the idea that wives might vote differently from their husbands.

And the former Republican president has suggested that Democrat Kamala Harris, who is trying to become the first woman to win the White House, would get 91裸聊视频渙verwhelmed91裸聊视频� and 91裸聊视频渕elt down91裸聊视频� facing male authoritarian leaders he considers tough.

In the final days of his campaign, Trump has stuck to a gendered worldview that his critics consider dated and paternalistic, even as he acknowledges that some of that language has gotten him 91裸聊视频渋nto so much trouble91裸聊视频� with a crucial group of voters.

Trump and some of his most prominent allies have peddled outright sexism.

Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, at an event with the Republican presidential nominee, likened Trump to an angry father providing tough love to a 91裸聊视频渂ad little girl91裸聊视频� who, as Carlson put it, was 91裸聊视频渋n need of a vigorous spanking.91裸聊视频�

Charlie Kirk, founder of the conservative youth organization Turning Point, which is playing a key role in the campaign91裸聊视频檚 get-out-the-vote operation, has said that any man who votes against Trump is 91裸聊视频渘ot a man.91裸聊视频� Kirk also has said wives who covertly vote for Harris 91裸聊视频渦ndermine their husbands91裸聊视频� 91裸聊视频� describing a man 91裸聊视频渨ho probably works his tail off to make sure that she can go and have a nice life and provide to the family.91裸聊视频�

On Saturday night, Trump laughed along with a crude joke about Harris, nearly a week after a speaker at his Madison Square Garden rally suggested the vice president was like a prostitute controlled by 91裸聊视频減imp handlers.91裸聊视频� As Trump repeated his claim, made without evidence, that Harris lied about working at McDonalds in her youth, someone in the crowd yelled, 91裸聊视频淪he worked on the corner.91裸聊视频�

Trump laughed, looked around and pointed toward a section of the crowd.

91裸聊视频淭his place is amazing,91裸聊视频� he said to cheers. 91裸聊视频淛ust remember, it91裸聊视频檚 other people saying it. It91裸聊视频檚 not me.91裸聊视频�

Trump has faced a persistent gender gap since Harris entered the race in July. Women are far more likely to say they91裸聊视频檙e supporting Harris than Trump 91裸聊视频� by a double-digit margin in some surveys.

That could be enough to prove decisive in what both sides expect to be an extremely close race that ends Tuesday.

Women generally vote at higher rates than men. In 2020, they made up 53% of the electorate, according to AP VoteCast. Among the nearly 67.2 million Americans who have already voted, about 53% are women, versus 44% men, according to TargetSmart, a political data firm.

91裸聊视频淭his is not a time for them to get overly masculine with this bromance thing that they91裸聊视频檝e got going,91裸聊视频� said Nikki Haley, who competed with Trump for the GOP nomination this year, in a recent Fox News interview. 91裸聊视频淲omen will vote. They care about how they91裸聊视频檙e being talked to. And they care about the issues.91裸聊视频�

Trump has not campaigned with Haley, who was U.N. ambassador during his administration, despite her offers to appear with him.

Trump has been aggressively courting men. Trump91裸聊视频檚 team has spent months trying to reach younger men, in particular, with a series of interviews on popular male-centric podcasts and appearances at football games and mixed martial arts fights. His campaign has been dominated by machismo, evident for example when former pro wrestler Hulk Hogan ripped off his shirt as he took the stage at the Republican National Convention and later at the Madison Square Garden rally.

The song 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 A Man91裸聊视频檚 Man91裸聊视频檚 Man91裸聊视频檚 World91裸聊视频� often plays at Trump91裸聊视频檚 events.

Trump was always expected to face challenges with women this year after nominating three of the Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, ending the constitutionally guaranteed right to abortion and ushering in a wave of restrictions across Republican-led states.

But his efforts to win women back have often landed flat.

Speaking Saturday in Gastonia, North Carolina, at his first of nearly a dozen rallies during the race91裸聊视频檚 final weekend, Trump acknowledged the blowback he has received for saying that, as president, he would 91裸聊视频減rotect91裸聊视频� women. He continued, nonetheless, to repeat the line as he insisted women love him and that he was right.

91裸聊视频淚 believe that women have to be protected. Men have to be, children, everybody. But women have to be protected where they91裸聊视频檙e at home in suburbia,91裸聊视频� he said. 91裸聊视频淲hen you91裸聊视频檙e home in your house alone and you have this monster that got out of prison and he91裸聊视频檚 got, you know, six charges of murdering six different people, I think you91裸聊视频檇 rather have Trump.91裸聊视频�

Trump91裸聊视频檚 campaign believes his focus on crime and illegal immigration will help him win over 91裸聊视频渟ecurity moms.91裸聊视频� At his rallies, he has featured the stories of mothers whose children were killed by people in the country who are in the United States illegally. That includes Alexis Nungaray, whose 12-year-old daughter, Jocelyn, was killed by two suspected Venezuelan gang members.

The campaign also believes that Trump91裸聊视频檚 frequent denunciation of transgender rights holds sway.

In Salem, Virginia, on Saturday, Trump brought to the stage female athletes from Roanoke College, where a transgender woman had asked and then withdrew her request to join the women91裸聊视频檚 swimming team.

In a statement, Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt defended Trump91裸聊视频檚 approach. 91裸聊视频淲omen deserve a President who will secure our nation91裸聊视频檚 borders, remove violent criminals from our neighborhoods, and build an economy that helps our families thrive 91裸聊视频� and that91裸聊视频檚 exactly what President Trump will do,91裸聊视频� she said.

Several attendees at his rallies said they welcome Trump91裸聊视频檚 promise to be a 91裸聊视频減rotector.91裸聊视频�

91裸聊视频淚 want protection. I mean, we all do, right? We don91裸聊视频檛 want to feel like we91裸聊视频檙e not protected,91裸聊视频� said Kim Saunders, 52, a small-business owner who lives in Williamsburg, Virginia. 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 that scary feeling. So for me, it makes me feel really good to have someone protect me and a man protect me.91裸聊视频�

She said she could not understand why women would support Harris, but thinks men are drawn to Trump because 91裸聊视频渉e is that alpha male. And for me, I love the alpha male. I grew up with a dad that was an alpha male.91裸聊视频�

Donna Sheets, 51, a caregiver and self-described 91裸聊视频渄ie-hard Trump supporter91裸聊视频� who lives in Christiansburg, Virginia, blamed the debate around abortion for Trump91裸聊视频檚 struggles with women.

She said she knows people are sometimes turned off Trump by 91裸聊视频渁 personality I don91裸聊视频檛 care for. But seeing how he runs this country, that91裸聊视频檚 what should matter at this point. Because none of us are perfect.91裸聊视频�

Harris, meanwhile, has seized on Trump91裸聊视频檚 remarks, highlighting them in speeches and online.

The vice president has tried to address her own side of the gender gap, appearing on podcasts and doing interviews particularly geared toward Black men, a traditionally Democratic constituency where Trump appears to be making inroads. She was asked in an interview with CNN on Saturday whether she believes women will make the difference in this election.

91裸聊视频淚 believe all Americans are going to make the difference. And I intend to be a president for all Americans,91裸聊视频� she said.

Trump has pushed back on a suggestion by top Harris surrogate Mark Cuban that Trump does not surround himself with strong, intelligent women. Trump notes that he hired women to lead his 2016 and 2024 campaigns.

But as he has tried to undercut Harris, who is the first woman to be elected vice president, Trump has repeatedly turned to gendered language.

91裸聊视频淪he certainly can91裸聊视频檛 handle (Russian President Vladimir) Putin, President Xi of China. She will get overwhelmed, melt down and millions of people will die,91裸聊视频� he said Saturday.

On Saturday night, he repeated his claim that he is the 91裸聊视频渇ather of fertilization,91裸聊视频� awkwardly and falsely taking credit for a fertility procedure that was briefly outlawed in Alabama by a state Supreme Court ruling due to the overturning of Roe.

And at recent rallies, Trump, who was found liable for sexual abuse and has been accused by more than two dozen women of sexual misconduct, has noted female supporters in the audience and mused about how he cannot call them beautiful anymore.

91裸聊视频淵ou have to be very careful. Everything you say. You know, like there91裸聊视频檚 some women that are very beautiful in the audience. I would never say that,91裸聊视频� Trump said. 91裸聊视频淚f I said they were beautiful, that91裸聊视频檚 the end of my political career.91裸聊视频�
