I agree with everything you wrote - well said! The only thing I disagree with slightly was that I think that US GC women concerned about the AMERICAN Equality Act didn't vote so much FOR Biden, in terms of they were endorsing the Equality Act by voting for him, but against Trump.

I also think that many people didn't think that the Democrats would win the Senate, so thought that the Equality Act would languish in the House and so wouldn't be an issue. Whoops.

I have to say that I am so incredibly angry at Biden and the Democrats for the Equality Act but also for prioritizing it.

I think that's where the Dems bamboozled you because Trump was not horrible to women's actual rights, and honestly to most people. I used to hate him for the first three years but last year I finally broke through the echo chamber and really tried to evaluate his actions on their own. I applauded his stance against China and favoring our own economy. Mind you I'm an immigrant but I believe that putting americans and american jobs and welfare first should be the goal. I appreciated him not using military funds for free transition. I saw him try to close us off to China before the virus got bad while liberal governors and mayors (including my state) left travel wide open and still do today as they destroy the livelihood of their citizens. They allow international travel into the heart of our state while punishing the people staying put as if it's OUR fault the virus is spreading. I saw Democrats utilize Covid as a political weapon.

I don't understand how someone could vote against Trump "because he's Trump" straight into this horrible mess.
