I know more women who support Trump than men who do.

Vocally..

I feel like there are a lot of women who are less vocal about it who might be afraid of getting attacked

It is naive to ignore people's stated preferences in favor of what we ourselves might wish to happen. Man vs. Bear... it's their choice, not ours, even if we "know better".

I'm stating a fact that trump supporters tend to be more dangerous and more vocal, and as such, democratic supporters are less likely to speak up...

I'm not American, but I personally don't know any women who support Trump (internationally, he's hated). But I agree there could be confirmation bias, because i don't tend to get along with right wing people here in Australia either

I find that thinking people from all walks of life can get along with one another extremely well - by simply not being a jerk:-) - whereas even people from the same tribe/religion/belief/whatever cannot get along with one another or even deal with being alone, bc toxicity is painful.
