CROSS Say it Jill ░░░░░░░░ Filipovic It s impossible ░░░░░░░░ t worry CROSS Filipovic ░░░░░░░░ you my apologies Well ░░░░░░░░ I mess up your ░░░░░░░░ we ll start off ░░░░░░░░ you first Sorry about ░░░░░░░░ Jill we re very ░░░░░░░░ to have you with ░░░░░░░░ I really want to ░░░░░░░░ and I slid in ░░░░░░░░ DMs to make sure ░░░░░░░░ we had you so ░░░░░░░░ for being here So ░░░░░░░░ want to kick it ░░░░░░░░ with you because Republican ░░░░░░░░ white women like we ░░░░░░░░ talked about most certainly ░░░░░░░░ certainly helped pave the ░░░░░░░░ for abortion rights to ░░░░░░░░ obliterated And white women ░░░░░░░░ narrowly favored the Republican ░░░░░░░░ candidate for the better ░░░░░░░░ of 70 years We ░░░░░░░░ talked about the support ░░░░░░░░ Trump in 2016 and ░░░░░░░░ That was not an ░░░░░░░░ that was a continuation ░░░░░░░░ a long standing pattern ░░░░░░░░ why do you think ░░░░░░░░ bulk of this group ░░░░░░░░ loyal to a party ░░░░░░░░ does not serve their ░░░░░░░░ FILIPOVIC Well I think ░░░░░░░░ first thing it s ░░░░░░░░ to understand is that ░░░░░░░░ women are the largest ░░░░░░░░ of race gender combination ░░░░░░░░ bloc In 2016 they ░░░░░░░░ 41 percent of the ░░░░░░░░ That s a bigger ░░░░░░░░ bloc than white men ░░░░░░░░ s much voting bloc ░░░░░░░░ black women black men ░░░░░░░░ women Hispanic men So ░░░░░░░░ think it s very ░░░░░░░░ to understand that among ░░░░░░░░ huge voting bloc you ░░░░░░░░ of have to break ░░░░░░░░ down into subgroups in ░░░░░░░░ to really understand it ░░░░░░░░ the reality is that ░░░░░░░░ women who have been ░░░░░░░░ to enjoy the fruits ░░░░░░░░ feminist progress who have ░░░░░░░░ higher education who ve ░░░░░░░░ able to stay single ░░░░░░░░ longer who have been ░░░░░░░░ to delay childbearing who ░░░░░░░░ in big cities those ░░░░░░░░ tend to vote for ░░░░░░░░ They do vote in ░░░░░░░░ own interest What you ░░░░░░░░ on the conservative side ░░░░░░░░ who tend to vote ░░░░░░░░ people like Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ sexual assault allegations and ░░░░░░░░ in fact vote against ░░░░░░░░ interests of women more ░░░░░░░░ I think is a ░░░░░░░░ that being in a ░░░░░░░░ being respected for being ░░░░░░░░ traditional woman is safer ░░░░░░░░ better than having to ░░░░░░░░ of go at it ░░░░░░░░ your own I think ░░░░░░░░ s a lot CROSS ░░░░░░░░ FILIPOVIC of affiliation with ░░░░░░░░ status It is part ░░░░░░░░ what grants you know ░░░░░░░░ women whether you re ░░░░░░░░ or conservative some large ░░░░░░░░ of privilege in society ░░░░░░░░ there are a lot ░░░░░░░░ white women who really ░░░░░░░░ to hang on to ░░░░░░░░ CROSS Yeah Yeah I ░░░░░░░░ that s a really ░░░░░░░░ point.”
