In partial defense of Donald Trump…<\/p>\n
… I think this falls into a category of “Man-Splaining”… (Which sub-category, I don’t know — there are sub-categories for this one, aren’t there?)<\/p>\n
… and, as a defense, it falls into the category of “Doesn’t do Donald Trump any favors”.<\/p>\n
It’s probably the case that “Miss Universe”, as set up by Donald Trump, would have to fulfill the duties of fitting the normative definition of beauty that she won the beauty contest with for… that year she’s Miss Universe.\u00c2\u00a0 (It has to be in the contract, right?)<\/p>\n
The fact that that’s sexist is the result of what sexist shindigs these things are.\u00c2\u00a0 Particularly as under the ownership of Donald Trump.\u00c2\u00a0 Apparently.
\nActually, I’m less surprised that Donald Trump tripped over the “losing a slice of that Suburban Women” demographic with one slip at the debate — he has a lot to answer for…<\/p>\n
then I am that he slipped up on the same thing that cost Mitt Romney……<\/p>\n
His “Don’t pay taxes, ’cause I’m smart” lining up with Mitt Romney’s “47 percent” comments.\u00c2\u00a0 Being that the logic of a Donald Trump victory lands on him winning a slice of “Rust Belt” white men who would align with opposition to free trade and bristle at being called one of the “deplorables” by Hillary Clinton or “clinging to guns and god” by Obama…<\/p>\n
