Idiot Accidental Billionaire Mark Cuban: The Women Supporting Trump Are Garbage, Too

Before getting to that: The Democrats' attempt to use hysteria to drive votes works. It's working right now.

Watch this hysteria-pushing ad.

Women, who favor Kamala Harris by something like 56-42 over Trump, are outvoting men by 10%.

Men favor Trump over Harris by a similar but greater spread, something like 58-40.

But who men "favor" counts for two things, Jack and Squat, and Jack left town.

Women are turning out to vote while men are saying manana, manana.

A lot of men out there seem to be doing the very unmanly thing of doing nothing and deciding they'll just do whatever the group decides they should do.

Justin Baragona
@justinbaragona

According to NBC News, nearly 60 million votes have already been cast nationally -- and women are outpacing men by 10 points.

A loss this election would be a disaster for the pro-life movment.

Pro-abortion women are voting in droves to make guaranteed abortion until the moment of crowning the law of the land, and they'll end the filibuster and pack the courts with new leftwing judges to do it. Kamala Harris wants to expand the Supreme Court to at least 12 justices, so she can nominate a bunch more leftwingers.

Are pro-life people showing up? If not, and if we lose this, then it's not going to take the GOP long to conclude that they have to drop the pro-life issue back to its former status of "something we insincerely talk about but never do anything about."

They'll have no choice. If abortion-crazed women are going to swamp the polls every two or four years and keep conservatives out of office, the party will have no choice but to all but stop talking about this issue. It's just a matter of math.

Pro-life people are probably never going to be a larger group than pro-abortion people, but they have to at least keep it close.

The pro-abortion zombies are swarming the polling places. Pro-lifers cannot let the narrative be set that the pro-life position is a political killer.

On to Mark Cuban:

If there is any merit to this lawsuit filed by the brother of one of Cuban's players on the Dallas Mavericks, I'm not sure how many women Cuban actually knows.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

But the world's dimmest billionaire announces that there are no "strong, intelligent" women around Trump.

Alina Habba responds as well.

And just because she is scalding hot:

This is actually pretty standard behavior in the era of early voting. Actually, this year the gender gap is a bit smaller than previous years. Not a huge difference, but a small one.

And this seems to be driven by black voters. What I know is from GA.

The entire (I mean entire) gender gap in GA is from black voters. The gender gap of black voters is 23% and the gender gap of the whole state is like 6% or something. Without the black gender gap, it's even.

Why? Because black men...are not voting.

I think this whole thing is actually really good news. Early voting is down. It's massively down with D's. And the gender gap is...kind of normal?

This isn't exactly bad news.

17 at this point a new USSC would have to undo our current state-by-state situation OR a constitutional amendment setting a country-wide abortion law.

neither will happen.

also there are more being performed now, without Roe

Roe was a terrible decision and it's gone. State by state is the way to go.

I would think we should be looking more toward the legal marijuana crowd who by and large have what they want from their freedom now and maybe have decided to kick back and relax IYKWIM. Or the "fiscal responsibility" people who have likely checked out of politics due to prof ligate spending from the Uniparty. Or for that matter what about the asshole AlwaysFaggots who drew the line at someone trying to actually do all the stuff they promised their voters for years? Think that idiotic 4 or 5 percent might make a difference? Oh yeah it's Trump's personality they don't like. Go with that. When they TOLD you originally he wasn't conservative enough for their deadass black severe conservativing Fightin hearts.

Why the fuck does this election result come down to "pro life" people? Nevermind, I know why. Because they offend the "moderates".

55 "Before getting to that: The Democrats' attempt to use hysteria to drive votes works. It's working right now."

Ace, I gotta disagree on that. If the hysteria worked, the overall early-vote for Dums wouldn't be catastrophically low. It almost doesn't matter what the male-female proportion is if the overall Dum vote is so low.

Don't get me wrong: I continue to be pessimistic we won't get fucked in the mouth with the steal. I continue to scream that we shouldn't blow our loads before the girl gets to the bed. We should go out and vote harderer than any hard vote has even been voted.

But the delta in early voting b/t men and women is normal, and means nothing in the context of the overall Dum vote being so low. Plus, comically hysterical ads like that -- if you were going to make a phony troll ad, how would it be any different -- don't appeal to anyone other than comically hysterical lunatics who are already sure to vote.

There was the rest of it where I said that women voting early is normal behavior. This is balanced by election day being very male heavy.

Also, if the gender gap is kind of normal but it's expanding rapidly in the black population, what's it doing in the rest? It's shrinking proportionally.

Men do seem to be voting more early in general. It's just the sliver of the population that is black men is not.

Your analysis makes sense to me, but also -- ace's post is scaring me a bit. So I don't know how to feel.

IIRC, exit polling from 2020 showed married women of all races (on average) splitting about the same as married men. Single women (of all races) split by like 10+ points for Biden.

I don't know that I ever saw a racial breakdown, but I always assumed at least SOME of that discrepancy is due to marriage rates being lower among blacks and hispanics than whites.

The messaging is working so well that Democrats are missing millions of voters from 2020 early.

Instead of using the ample opportunities to vote early that they have traditionally used, they're saving up their energy to come out on election day.

67 Here’s the thing. Trump has already said he won’t do any of the things Democrats are saying he will do as it relates to abortion. Conversely, Democrats, including huge foreign donors are spending millions in every state trying to change both constitution and law. Democrats including Kamala have promised of they win to pass national abortion statutes which codify the right to abortion in federal law, in subversion of the Dobbs decision and ultimately state’s rights.

So riddle me this, are women voting for Harris against states right, for subversion of the constitution, against capitalism, for the open border and ultimately for the Marxist agenda? Simple answer, yes they are.

I respect people’s right to choose who they vote for. But the arguments they make for that choice fail every truthful introspection.

97 The abortion “law” in NY is 6 months no excuses. 6 months to births there are no penalties. I put “law” in quotes because what Democrats did is take it out of the criminal code and put it into the health code. They also charges the 6 month to birth language so virtually any excuse could be used and no penalties could be subscribed. That’s because there are NO penalties set forth in the health code.

Flash forward, and I had an argument with a woman in NY on abortion. She said I should vote for Harris because Trump will take away your abortion “right”. I asked if she realized it’s a state rights issue and informed her of NY law. She accused me of lying. This is the kind of fanatical, fabulist pathos driven crap you are up against.

143 >>> 97 The abortion "law" in NY is 6 months no excuses. 6 months to births there are no penalties. I put "law" in quotes because what Democrats did is take it out of the criminal code and put it into the health code. They also charges the 6 month to birth language so virtually any excuse could be used and no penalties could be subscribed. That's because there are NO penalties set forth in the health code.

Flash forward, and I had an argument with a woman in NY on abortion. She said I should vote for Harris because Trump will take away your abortion "right". I asked if she realized it's a state rights issue and informed her of NY law. She accused me of lying. This is the kind of fanatical, fabulist pathos driven crap you are up against.

However it’s a big constitutional republic and we need to adhere to the laws and constitution for all people”. Giving this back to the states was the right move. There is no right to abortion in the constitution. Let each state decide. That’s really not hard to explain.

Not sure how the political thing works or how the odds have varied over time.

In sports betting in general, some gamblers try to guarantee a win regardless of which team wins via arbitrage when there is a significant change of odds (or point spreads) over time by strategically placing bets on both sides.

No idea if that's occuring to any degree here -- but perhaps a possibility to some extent (people who bet early on Trump may be trying to "middle" by betting less on Kommie-la but now with higher odds if she "wins").

183 I don't think they really want abortion made a constitutional right all the way up to birth.

It would have to be done via an act of congress and that is a hurdle only achieved with huge majorities both houses and a president same party.

It would then be challenged and run up to the court and the court would have been packed which would be the result of the Ds in house, senate, and WH.

But by that point they would have achieved all they want and would have eliminated their NUMBER ONE WEDGE GOTV VOTE ISSUE.

And why would they do that? With the ultimate power of both houses and the WH, they can eliminate all dissent via censorship. With the judges, and the DAs, they can jail anyone they want without consequence for speaking up.

I really have started to question this, similar to the idea that inner city voters turn out at 95-130% during Presidential elections. The commies feel entitled to those votes. That being said, I do like your idea of 'attacking' in a different way entirely, as this lays the groundwork for the long-term opinion shift that would need to happen for additional changes. One example, I recall some bank (or maybe several) creating loans to help potential adopters pay for their insane legal expenses; what can we do to reduce those costs as well?

They're not. They're about even. Maybe a bit down.

The difference is that Democrat votes are WAY down. PA alone is missing 800,000 Democrat early voters while the GOP is missing about 60,000 (with a couple more days for returns to happen, so both will go up a bit).

Combine that with the regular occurrence that election day is heavily Republican AND male, and you've got a recipe for a clear cut election...should rules be followed, of course.

Have you talked with any of these abortion fanatics? Because you quickly find out they are NOT single issue voters.

---

I agree, in the same way that heroin addicts don't always just do heroin. But the reason they are addicted to the Democratic party now is this single issue. And the worst thing about it, is that it caused an incredible shift in the politics of this country. Look at the pattern of women voting over the last 8 years. Especially the last four. They don't care about inflation, they don't care about the military, they don't care about the deficit. The people selling socialism are also selling abortion on demand up to the point of birth. Socialism is the anchor baby of their politics

201 I’m unclear why it’s so hard for some in the party to say “personally I am against abortion for religious and other reasons. However it’s a big constitutional republic and we need to adhere to the laws and constitution for all people”.

Because Republicans are not republicans either - no more than Democrats are democrats.

Except that gap between men and women voters has always existed. Since before the original Roe ruling.

I think I remember reading somewhere (years ago) that not a single democrat since Kennedy would have been elected if women couldn't vote. I may be misremembering that, but the point is -- this gender gap in voting isn't new.

They aren't voting on abortion any more then they are voting on kids in cages or the unvaccinated spreading covid. They want to virtue signal. And they want to get kudos on facebook/twitter. But more then anything they want your stuff.

A pro-abortion Trump would get fewer votes then the moderately pro-life Trump we currently have. He'd lose a few pro-life single issue voters (because these people do exist even if they aren't numerous) and he'd get 0 AWFL/party girl votes from Kamala.

That's why the incumbent AG, who legalized drugs, made shoplifting a non crime and closed juvenile detention facilities, is going to win.

259 It could have been - England managed it without causing a Civil War, after all.

Brazil ended slavery peacefully a generation after our Civil War. I suspect if the US had found a way to avoid the Civil War the same would have happened here as the economics of slavery made less and less sense over time.

But then you quickly get to how? A lot of things have to go differently in the run up to 1861 for that to be an option.

The Census Data does not differentiate between people IN the US and Citizens OF the US.

Also, the most current Census Data you can pull from is roughly 2-4 years out of date at any given time.

Ace's assertion of Raw Population Data in this Post is referring to the Electorate.

The Census is NOT a Survey of Eligible Voters.

Again, Pay Attention.

The Raw Population Numbers are UNDER 13% and the Eligible Voter Population (what we are concerned with here) is over 25% below that number.

And again, that Census Data is Out of Date and Inaccurate in regards to the Electorate.

Seriously. The biggest issue that caused contention in the US wasn't so much with ending slavery (although of course that was also contentious), the problem was with what to do with the slaves afterwards. If you read any articles / writings from that era around slavery, that was a MAJOR sticking point.

England did not have to face that issue.

288 You can say "Women are showing up more than men!"

But, the numbers still show republicans seriously outperforming democrats in nearly every category.

From registrations, propensity, to turnout, it's a seriously huge shift.

There is ammo for election days, and yes I agree the message should be to get men out, but that's what they typically do.

Even with early vote numbers, I want to compare/contrast, and I feel if we looked in 2020, and even 2022.. you'd see women outvoting men just the same.

The difference this time is there are lots of black men not voting, and lots more republicans voting.

Make of that what you will.

Kamela will lower taxes, with a $25,000 payment to first time home buyers, a $6,000 payment to first time parents, a $50,0000 credit to someone who starts a small business. The average voter doesn’t have a clue how any tax gets levied or what is required to create these payments. But they hear this crap and think it can happen.

If Harris cheats her way to a win, or worst case scenarios, by actually getting enough dolts and imbecile know-nothing lofos to vote for her, then it will be under this DEI hire's watch that the country will crumble beyond repair. It will be under her that we'll finally fall apart economically, socially, culturally. The AWFLs will have their bloody abortions saved (in their minds) while the country self-destructs in all ways. And her name will be attached to it all. Nothing I can do, nothing you can do, nothing any of us can really do if the worst outcome comes to pass next Tuesday.

You a fan of the Greatest Generation ? I'm sure you are.

Every pilot, gunner, and bombardier of the Eighth Air Wing killed - if they followed their plan close enough and got lucky - German women and children with their drops. Why ? Because some fraction of those losses saved American lives. That's the hard reality.

Sometimes it's yours or theirs. We're at that point - they're killing theirs - and you want to do what ? Wade in and stop it ?

Why is it so fucking impossible to consider that it's the 42% who are out voting the men?

No no no mayhem! You must panic because 100% of the women who are voting are Harris supporters! You must NOT think that Trump supporters are doing more voting than Harris supporters!
Even though Harris is deeply unpopular, her policies have caused chaos for EVERYONE, and she is a complete imbecile, it means she is getting every fucking vote being cast by women RIGHT THE FUCK NOW!

Regarding early voting in person or election day in person voting, that is not a typical source of fraud.

Absentee ballots are. What TJM's stats are measuring is that actual real person enthusiasm for Dems appears to be down.

That makes it much harder to pull off a cheat because if the GOP and indy votes at the rate of 2020 or higher, then the Dems have to resort to unbelievable levels of fraud which they do not have the paper trail for (such as absentee ballot requests, etc. and running election day ballots over and over again like in Atlanta is highly visible due to duplicate ballot images).

Any cheat this year will have to be the bare assed Venezuela style cheating without the national control that Venezuela has to cover it.

Fair enough.

But it's hard to get over the fact that 2020 saw the greatest turnout in history driven by mail in voting, especially from Democrats.

And then realize that Republicans are even in early voting to 2020 but Democrats are massively down.

So, I mean, I can believe that Republicans will perform at 2020 levels while Democrats will perform below 2020 levels based on their early voting patterns showing similar things across states, or I can believe polls which have no incentive to being correct.

An alternate theory for why the betting sites have been moving toward Harris & against Trump for the last 3 days:

Bettors holding in-the-money, Trump-to-win bets are cashing out now, i.e., taking profits, instead of holding their bets through election day, and making even more money (IF Trump wins).

But that would indicate uneasiness about Trump's chances too.

349 By nature, also, men are going to vote on election day. It's a rule. It's simple. It's routine. Additionally, they are going to do so on their way to or from work.

Let's face it...the women voting early (a significant number of them) are spending their lives during the day at home and online. A lot of them live for this shit...and to be honest, I'm happy men will be voting outside of their wives' influence when they're on their own. "Harris...of course I voted for Harris."

I'd imagine married women, GOP voters in general, and those that are older white voters are less likely to EV for various reasons.

Unmarried or never married women, minorities (such as Black church community based voting pattern of rounding people up on the church bus and taking them to the polls to vote), and younger voters are more likely to EV.

Absentees vary a lot more because rules differ among the states--many are pretty strict about absentee ballot requests requiring a reason, some require id, etc. Some are all absentee ballot types like WA with no inperson voting allowed at all.

Posted by: 18-1 at November 01, 2024 03:50 PM (oZhjI)

The how is easy. Virtually every state had the models of the 13 colonies on how to do gradual emancipation. Set a date where babies or adults became free, and slaves then can be sold south so economic losses were minor.

Even in the south, some slaves were running their own businesses and paying a stipend back to the master in Civil War days.

But plantation slavery of cotton exhausted the soil and the areas that could be expanded to were not very suitable for plantation farming. This led to friction with the North and Midwest over expansion, backing overseas expansion, increasing repression of free speech for abolition literature. Finally there was the pre-Civil War in Kansas.

Rather stupid to do that in an unconsolidated nation and it will be revealed this time. Dumbass leftists think they control the institutions so they will control the outcomes--that is usually not so--people control the outcomes. It is always a mistake to reify institutions (or any other man made thing) and assume it is a unified whole.

Some conservatives do it too but less so than leftists because being one with the hive or blob is more important to them. Pessimistic conservatives are the ones that believe the hive mine/blob always wins and thus equate titular control of institutions with actual control of the people within.

Individuals always get a vote in outcomes.
