Will being childless hurt Kamala Harris with women?

Anytime anyone is married with kids ..... what a load of bullhonkey.
So members of, say, Moms for Liberty are considered more nicey-nice and trustworthy due to perceptions?

What you've really touched on is it's easier for people to identify with someone who looks like you, acts like you or resembles people you know. But America is becoming far more diverse (ooh, that dirty word) and we will be far better off if folks learn to expand their viewpoints of others. My mama said to not judge a book by its cover.

 

I’m not sure I agree with you here. The pubs have set out their talking points which lead people to(falsely) believe that Dems want unlimited, unfettered abortion. Trump said as much in the last debate when he delivered one of his lies that Roe and the Dems stand for the proposition that a newly born baby can be slaughtered. Disgusting.

As of now, I think the abortion ballot in Florida is losing. Absent a huge advertising blitz with perfect messaging, the ballot will fail. And soI am deeply concerned that the “abortion hill” is one that will win for them.

 

Yeah … but The Book of Revelations …

 

I’m reading this thread and seeing the attacks between posters as to whether a Step mom is a “real mom” and other stupid, inane attacks.

And then I realized this all stems from a MAGA talking point—from the VP candidate who may very well step into the shoes of the Presidency given Trump’s age.

This entire thread demonstrates to me that the MAGA platform is designed and constructed to divide and creat discord. Is there even a shred of universal decency in anything MAGA promotes?

 

Who said Harris had kids or that she knew what it was like to raise them? Her communist ways are the only thing people should be concerned about her. The kids thingy is a side show that must not be a distraction from her completely communist views for America. She also wants to legalize all the illegals and keep the borders open for even millions more to come in.

Kamala Harris Will Have A New Daughter-In-Law Soon

 

Maybe there is updated data, but a Fox News poll from last month reflected enough support for it to win. I am surprised that the number for the abortion amendment was higher than the marijuana amendment.

Florida voters support marijuana, abortion amendments in Fox News poll

A new Fox News poll shows broad support in Florida for proposed constitutional amendments on the 2024 ballot allowing recreational marijuana and protecting access to abortion.

Of the more than 1,000 voters surveyed in early June, 66% were in support of the pot measure (Amendment 3) and 69% favorable of the abortion one (Amendment 4).

Amendments need no less than 60% statewide approval to pass.

 

That’s great news (to me). I know DeSantis has stated his team will be unleashing a massive campaign against the Amendment in the coming months.

 

Can you link that? everything I have read indicates about 60% support - which tracks with the longitudinal data collection on this issue.

 

And can’t link anything without spending time to research. But see post 208, which tracks like you say it does.

 

I wonder if those like Vance who are concerned about Harris not having biological kids -or not having helped raised step-kids from a young enough age - have the same concern about people running for Congress or maybe they think it only matters to be President? I note that Matt Gaetz' primary opponent has four kids, which arguably makes him super qualified. Of course, I do recall that Gaetz previously said that he has secretly been a father to someone named Nestor for years.

 

Depending on how the question is phrased in an poll, that is very probable. Because in real life, perception and reality are two different things.

Society's perception if someone is almost 40 but is unmarried and with no kids (using myself as an example) = he's a wierdo. The same applies if he's an extreme gun enthusiast/collector/nut, motorcycle nut, likes extreme sports, has unusual hobbies, owns exotic pets, has multiple tattoos, etc.

"Girls date the bad boy, marry the good guy."

Again, perception versus reality.

And in any election, something as little as a 1% vote swing, especially in a purple state goes a long way.

 

Best analogy I can give is "Elian Gonzalez defeated Al Gore."

Obviously, not 100% of the same similarity, degree, or severity but the perception is there.

 

Now do one for the most criminal nominee in U.S. history!

 

unfortunately for you trump is also severely flawed. If he wasn’t this wouldn't even be a race.

 

Trump/Vance apparently want us to believe that raising step children is to be deeply flawed. Yet Kamala's family and children seem well adjusted, thriving and loved and they love their step mother.

What is truly deeply flawed is that Trump would rather focus on non issues than have people looking deeper at his Project 2025 platform, which seems to be focused on diminishing personal freedoms, women's rights, education, the environment, our country and turning it into an authoritarian state. Why is Trump hiding from this? Why is he afraid to debate Kamala?
