Show notes

Why do single women largely vote for Democrats? Same reason blacks typically vote for them... because they've built their brand around keeping minority groups reliant on them and believing that without government involvement they would be trampled under-foot by those racist, sexist, homophobic Republicans!

There's way too much to talk about with this topic, and that is absolutely terrifying.
