"Well Kamala didn't suck up to me and spend three hours on me"
Rogan, probably.
All Rogan's children are girls and he's happy to endorse the man who will make them slaves to men their whole lives.
I hope his children all dump his ass and he never hears from them in adulthood and wonders why.
That's one of my favorites to bring up to parents of daughters that are Trump supporters. "So you support a man that forcibly raped a woman and wants to know they schedule and status off your daughter's vagina all of the time?" Make it personal because most won't change until it affects them.
Rich white people have a long history of "giving away" their daughters. Let alone the insanity of debutante balls and the like. And just look at what they think medieval times was (there is a reason anyone with a basic understanding of history rolls their eyes at all the rape fantasies of shit like GoT/ASOIAF).
They view their daughters as property, plain and simple. And many take it even farther and consider them property to be "used".
I have a buddy that's about to pop the question to his partner, and the topic of asking the father for permission came up, and it's just so fucking dumb. I didn't ask my father in law, but if I did and he said no, I would just laugh and tell him his opinion doesn't actually matter, and maybe I'd next see him at the wedding for the last time.
Rogan is rich. The rules don't apply to the rich. His daughters will thrive in an unequal world.
I'm confused about this. I know Trump is not a fan of women, but he said that he wants women to be slaves???
They want to ban abortion AND no-fault divorce.
So once they're married with a baby in their belly, no matter what abuse they endure, they will not be able to request a divorce, because they essentially need their husbands permission first.
I wouldn't be surprised if they also pushed policies to punish unmarried adults, to force more women into unhappy marriages with incels who had no ability to attract a mate under any other circumstances.
So excuse the hyperbole, but it's essentially putting women in a position where they may as well be a slave.
I don't think Trump cares about that stuff...
The man personally probably doesn’t give a shit. He wants power and admiration and if someone like Stephen Miller says “hey this plan I have for changing how divorce and abortion work is good for your campaign / presidency” then he will go along with it.
The threat of a man like trump is not that he personally wants to do a bunch of bad things (although he does seem to think a lot of awful ideas with clear history and mechanism of not working, like tariffs, are smart and good). It’s that he doesn’t care about the people around him that want to do awful things.
I dunno maybe ask the ex-wife he violently raped because he got a bad and painful hair transplant how Trump felt about controlling women.
Oh wait you can't because she conveniently died from a fall while he was President and then was unceremoniously buried on his golf course.
But you're not wrong, Trump wants that level of control over every American, not just the women.
