Trump held a "town hall" to talk women's issues across the US. Only his Republican friends were invited

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-town-hall-women-georgia-b2629936.html


Donald Trump spoke at a Georgia town hall on Tuesday to address women’s issues - it turned out the “town” was populated by only GOP backers hand-selected by Fox News.

The day after the former president jammed to his curated playlist as two of his supporters fell ill at a rally in Oaks, Pennsylvania, and just hours after he delivered a free association performance at the Economic Club of Chicago, he arrived at the Reid Barn in Cumming, Georgia.

Located in Forsyth County, about 45 minutes outside of Atlanta, these are the areas where Trump must run up his totals on election day if he is to win. Ostensibly, the town hall run by Fox News was meant to soften his image with female voters. If Trump is to have any hope of flipping the state, he will need to improve his image with women.

As soon as Trump arrived in the rustic barn with its wood panels, he received rapturous applause. Throughout the town hall hosted by Harris Faulkner, questioners seemed enraptured by him.

You just know he picked Forsyth County because of its long, long history of racism.

and they're not talking to their husbands about it. Their number one concern? Their daughters.
