A supporter of former President Donald Trump told a focus group recently that she thinks women are too emotional to be president, which is why she's sticking with the man who would switch policy positions based on segments he watched on "Fox and Friends."
In a focus group hosted by Sarah Longwell, an unidentified New Hampshire Trump voter explained why she didn't think top rival Nikki Haley was up to the job of running the country.
"Now, don't take this the wrong way, guys," the voter began. "But I don't feel as though a woman belongs in the presidential seat," she said. "I say that because... we think with our heart, mostly, over mind and that's not what we need right now. We need someone like Trump."

The focus group also featured a male Trump supporter who issued a similar opinion about women's unfitness for the presidency.
"I just feel like it's a man's job," he explained. "And they got to make tough decisions that can't have any emotions involved. They're the commander in chief. They have that red button at their disposal at all times. I just kind of feel like it would be better in a guy's hands."
The video was shared by The Bulwark's editor-at-large Tim Miller on Threads.
"Y’all have listen to a focus group of two-time Trump voters discussing their concerns about a woman president. Horrifying. Full pod: https://youtu.be/ktULrrt5UUo?si=zixa1_wF3jK4sysr"
