House Republican absurdly claims Trump will ‘protect women’

The Republican Party and its presidential nominee Donald Trump have a problem: They are sexist and their policies are misogynistic. This means that women voters are repelled by Trump and he has only a small number of female campaign surrogates who aren’t related to him.

One such surrogate is Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina. Mace broke with Trump back when he attempted to overthrow our country’s election results, but she has since returned to the MAGA fold. The congresswoman appeared on Neil Cavuto’s Fox News show to attack Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and argue that a Trump presidency will be better for women.

"As a woman, I want to vote for someone who's going to protect women like me, who are survivors of rape,” Mace told Cavuto. 

That’s quite a statement considering that in May 2023, Trump was found liable for sexually abusing writer E. Jean Carroll and subsequently ordered to pay tens of millions of dollars in damages for defaming Carroll by saying she lied about the abuse.
