Trump: Women and Donald Trump

trump: Democrats are heavily favoured to win back control of the House of Representatives on Tuesday, an outcome that would thwart most of Trump's legislative agenda and subject him to a barrage of congressional investigations, according to Toronto Star. If they do, it will be largely because of the women he has infuriated into action. Eight years later, Donald Trump's first midterm is shaping up as the election of the angry liberal woman. According to the Center for Responsive Politics, women have donated more than 308 million to Democratic congressional candidates this year more than three times what women donated to Democratic congressional candidates in the 2014 midterms. Democratic women have run for office in unprecedented numbers, gifted campaigns an unprecedented army of midterm volunteers, and poured unprecedented cash, a few dollars at a time, into candidates' coffers.
