Trump: I’ll Protect “Suburban Housewives” From Blacks

The Daily Beast reports:



President Donald Trump is known to long for the 1950s—when women were expected to be subservient and quiet and presidents could just deport people en masse.

Now, he’s plucked a campaign message straight from his favorite era by telling “suburban housewives” he’ll protect them from an entirely imaginary “invasion” of poor people led by Sen. Cory Booker, the sole Black male Democrat in the Senate.

It’s not clear what Trump is basing his assertion on—a recent polling average showed that women favor Biden over Trump by 23 percentage points. The president recently rescinded an Obama-era rule that he falsely claimed forced the construction of low-income housing in suburban areas.
