Trump promises to protect women

Vice President Kamala Harris has rebuked Donald Trump's recent claim of being the 'protector' of women, highlighting his previous statements about punishing women for abortions and the adverse effects of overturning Roe v. Wade. Trump's efforts to appeal to women voters come amid a significant gender gap in support, as polls show many women view Harris favorably compared to Trump. Critics, including former White House Communications Director Alyssa Farrah Griffin, have labeled Trump's assertions as 'creepy' and 'gaslighting', given his role in appointing justices who facilitated the rollback of reproductive rights. Additionally, Republican candidates like Bernie Moreno have faced backlash for their dismissive remarks about women's concerns regarding abortion, further complicating the GOP's outreach to female voters. The disparity in Trump's favorability among women poses a considerable challenge for his campaign as the election approaches, with many voters expressing feelings of being patronized. Harris concluded that women need trust and support rather than Trump's empty promises.
