Showing Original Post only (View all)Right-wing media escalate attacks on young women voters following Democratic election wins across the country [View all]

Figures across right-wing media expressed fear over the demographic, with Newsmax host Carl Higbie labeling liberal white women as the biggest threat to America they will literally vote for their own destruction and take everyone down with them.

These people are delusional! Should we follow them back to 1984 (or maybe 1884)?
