Trump popped in on “Fox & Friends” on Friday and dropped this gem: “Without abortion, the women love me.”
You almost have to give him a round of applause for nearly stumbling into a factual statement. Almost.
He’s partly correct: Women are mad that the Supreme Court’s conservative majority, half of which he appointed, overturned Roe v. Wade, eliminating the constitutional right to abortion. Like, throw-your-remote-at-the-TV mad. But “women love me”? Uh, no.
The polling data is clear: Women are not loving him. The latest New York Times/Siena College national poll shows a staggering 16-percentage-point gender gap between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris—and it’s not in his favor.
Why? For starters, abortion is the top issue for female voters under 30. And if Trump thought he could just fumble through an all-female town hall—one that Fox News stacked with MAGA supporters—and lip-service his way back onto women’s good side, think again.
