Quote:I asked Cat Tervens if she regrets her vote for Trump, and she responded:
Honestly, no. Iâve become extremely numb to the nonstop outrage and histri-
onics of the left, and I am happy that Trump delivered and focused on restor-
ing the rights of women and girls. Heâs not perfect, and frankly, I donât even
like the guy (I had serious TDS during his previous tenure), but heâs the only
one willing to do what needs to be done, and Iâm willing to weather the other storms that come with him. My hope was that the Democrats would see what a losing issue this gender nonsense is. So far, Iâve only seen them continue to double down, and I feel like they wonât win another election so long as they prioritize pushing gender ideology. How could I vote for the party that denies the reality right before our eyes and not only gaslights us but tries to ruin our lives if we dare to try to encourage them to change course, no matter how
gently? The party that excuses the violence committed against us in countless ways so they can virtue signal and prioritize the feelings of men with auto-gynephilia above the needs of every woman and girl in the country (and abroad) is no party I can support. They get what they get at this point. After everything theyâve put me and many I care about through, I simply no longer care. Cope and seethe, you little tyrants (2025, Mar 2).

I'm kind of in the same boat as Korebi in that I hoped to glean a little insight from the Trump voter. I did not lol.

I thought the Trump voter was possibly typical, based on my pre-election outreach. Prior to the election I spoke to a number of âswingâ voters. She seemed fairly typical of the swing voters I spoke with, to be honest. Not in the specificity of her being cancelled by friends, of course. Most expressed rage at the Democratsâ inability to define âwomanâ and erasure more generally. Several mentioned that Democrats had failed to codify Roe. Many seemed to me to be single issue voters. I would add that most also minimized the risk of fascism. Several were former Democrats, which really broke my heart.
Looking forward, I am trying to figure out how we reach such women. If we canâŠ

Sadly I feel that most of these "single-issue" women voters will need to experience the effects of their votes for Republicans in a personal and negative way before they will change their minds. That's been the case with every single Republican voter I've known personally. They will not extrapolate or empathize beyond their own personal experience when it comes to their own vote.
"Touching the hot stove to learn that it burns" is sadly a real thing and they won't change until they get burned.
(Apr 4 2025, 8:03 AM)komorebi  Many seem to have become...or been shaped into...single-issue voters. But that's also kind of a good thing, because it means that if the party can regain sanity on the single issue, perhaps they can court these voters again. Idk, maybe I'm reaching a little, but...yeah just trying to make a more productive post instead of doomposting đ«
