 Trump has been taking the "ex-husband" strategy with this campaign. Because most people that have been hysterically against him have been women hallucinating Hiitler and "threats to democracy", Trump has been holding himself on the fringes of media attention and primarily through confrentations in the legal system. This has the effect of allowing space for women to reevaluate him and gauge how much "danger" they are willing to tolerate in exchange for prosperity. Trump being more muted and less adversarial lets women reconsider their positions and maybe even open to a "booty call" on election (erection) night.
Assuming the election isn't completely faked again, it will be interesting to see where women fall in the equation. 
 It is amazing how many women (I think my sister is one of them) are willing to vote for a senile old man who is kingpin of a crime family because Trump posts mean tweets.

I don't blame anyone for not being a fan of Trump.  I do blame people for thinking Biden is better in any way.  I so badly long for a day that I can vote FOR a candidate instead of voting AGAINST a candidate or candidates.  

FYI, I did vote FOR  Ron Paul when he ran.  He never really had a chance because the establishment wouldn't allow it and most people don't actually want freedom or small government.  Being at the national convention was eye opening about how corrupt the parties really are.
