Lauren Leader: It Drives Me Nuts to See White Women Supporting Trump

‘It’s hard to wrap our heads around’

EXCERPT:

LEADER: “Still, I do worry — and I sort of agree with Molly although I don't know, maybe Harris should go on Joe Rogan — I do worry because I think, first of all, on the white women, Trump has lost no ground since '16 with white women. We’re still seeing 50% of white women supporting him, which I know drives a lot of Democratic women nuts because it’s so hard to wrap our heads around. But black men in Michigan, like, she has to win them. The margins are so thin that if she can't win over — and I was so happy to hear Barack Obama say that last night. I mean, we've all been seeing this under the surface. They have to go after those voters. The question is, can you convince people if the base is sexist though?"
