Trump backers tweet #repealthe19th after polls show he'd win if only men voted

As polls show that Donald Trump would overwhelmingly win if only men were allowed to vote, the GOP nominee's supporters have spawned a new Twitter hashtag: #repealthe19th.

That’s a reference to the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote.

The Twitter commentary began after Nate Silver of the FiveThirtyEight website published an article Tuesday looking at men’s and women’s voting patterns.

He found that if the election only counted the male vote, Trump would swamp Clinton, 350 electoral votes to 188. A candidate must win 270 electoral votes to win the presidency.

1. I said this back when Ann Coulter was all over teevee saying that

I know there are think tanks trying to figure out ways to suppress the women's vote but it's a little harder than doing it to other minorities.

Full circle people, take away reproductive rights and birth control so women are pregnant and pregnant often, water down domestic violence laws so men can beat or just intimidate their women, and then take away their right to vote. Back to total subservience. Those stupid women who support Trump and anything about this have no idea what they are wishing for.

2. This almost seems like a joke, but it isn't.

Weird, weird, weird.

I have heard alot of weird things in my 60 years and this ranks up there.

3. #repealthe22nd

[Andy823]

4. Well that should help him

Get all the women to vote for him!

[tonyt53]

5. Look at Trump's hardest core base - white males over 50

They quit school at 16, farted around a couple of years, then went to work where their father's or other relatives worked. They did poorly while they were in school, and now they can't find a job that requires a dummy to operate the equipment. Trump tells them who to blame, it just like with Trump, it is everybody but the person they see in the mirror.

24. Please don't include every white man over 50

My husband is a 69 year old white male, retired from an aluminum mill and he is an awesome Democratic man. For every Homer Simpson, there is at least one Bill Clinton

6. Amd if they repeal the 13th and 14th

They would really have this locked up.

[harrose]

30. I think you mean the 15th.

[ThoughtCriminal]

31. Pretty sure they would repeal all three

[beachbum bob]

7. this would make a great political ad in states where gaining more women for Hillary

like Utah, could lead to a win....Start off...trump's supporters want to remove your right to choose whats best for you and take away your rights to vote.......welcome to the Dark Ages

[murielm99]

8. I thought you were joking.

I followed the link, and this is an actual article. Take a look at that electoral map with male-only voters!

GOTV ladies.

[sinkingfeeling]

9. Isn't that only if white males could vote?

[sharp_stick]

10. Too bad they'd need women to vote

to repeal but these moronic half wits probably can't think in terms such as reality.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. One says "Females destroyed America"

"too much testosterone"?

I think Hillary showed too much IGNORANCE just like the women who
approve of her CRIMES.

Females DESTROYED America!

23. My husband worked with a guy

who believed that power steering is what destroyed America. Power steering made it easier for women to drive, they stopped staying home and there went the country. We still laugh.

[rusty quoin]

27. If Trump was a real man he would have the power steering disconnected in the limos he gets around in

[Moonwalk]

12. These Geniuses haven't realized that if women weren't allowed to vote....

...they probably wouldn't be allowed to run for office either? (i.e. There'd be no Hillary for Trump to have to beat...and if he has to cheat that much to win, how much of a clever, great and powerful winner is he?)

Too bad there's no amendment we can restore that takes away the vote from republican men. That would win the presidency for Hillary for sure

13. Heard a woman call Rush Limbaugh show. She says only men have logic to make decisions

She was upset that she sees women on TV acting like they know anything and pretending to be experts. She says everyone knows women are not able to make choices, they are too emotional and don't know how to think.

Rush laughed, and then said he could comment on this, but he didn't want to on the air.

[PersonNumber503602]

14. This is amazing...

I made what I thought was an absurd mocking post to some woman Trump supporter on twitter about a week ago. I said something about the problem is that women are still allowed to vote and how that's going to ruin Trump's chances. Now something similar is a REAL thing? What the hell is wrong with these people? They are caricatures.

[angrychair]

15. Maybe I'm in a bubble

But I don't agree with Nate Silver's assessment that tRump would win if only men could vote. She is with the MOE for white male voters and if only men could vote her campaign would be structured with that in mind. I would still propose that she will win males voters nationally.

[crosinski]

16. Has this reached its apex?

I'm a Union Plumber's daughter, and my dear old dad told me that at a certain point the crap must collapse. Gods above, aren't we there yet?

[etherealtruth]

17. I was sure this was the Onion ...blechhhhhhhh

[MissMillie]

18. Nothing says "we respect women" than

#repealthe19th

[Ellen Forradalom]

19. Twitter trolls

as cowardly as their leader.

Good luck with that, fellas.

[roamer65]

21. Men for Hillary!

Ok guys, who else?

[jmowreader]

22. Ever notice something about people who brag of their love for the Constitution?

Every one of the bastards has a list of exactly what parts of it they'd like to see repealed.

[Quantess]

25. HAHAHAHA good luck with that.

Dream on.

[DesertRat]

26. I can't believe that hashtag is STILL trending on twitter

[lastlib]

28. I can only offer this:

[Divine Discontent]

29. Such quality human beings these GOP folks are who agree with that, and, most of all...

Why are the GOP women sticking with them... well, those who still are!
