Trump has an Achilles' heel when it comes to winning a general election: He doesn't do well at attracting women voters. Actually, that's an understatement: He repels many of them.
In recent polls of Republican voters in Iowa, the boastful mogul was the first choice of 37% of men (when results were averaged) and 31% of women. Because there are more male Republican voters than women — 57% in the 2012 Iowa caucuses, for example — that gender gap, while sizable, is not fatal.
In the electorate as a whole, however, there are more female voters than male — 53% in 2012 — and there, Trump's gender gap is more pronounced…
why is Trump doing so well?
“He's figured out the mood of the voters,” said David Winston, a Republican pollster who is not affiliated with a campaign. “People want to hear how a candidate plans to change everything. They are looking for someone who will rock the boat. Trump is doing that more clearly than the others.”
That could be just enough to allow Trump to win the Republican nomination. But thanks to the 19th Amendment, it doesn't look as if it's enough to win the presidency.
I thought about posting this one. Instead I posted about Monkeys and poop. So same thing, I guess?

Solidifies, if not adds- to, the MRA vote.
I'm guessing 90% of Trump supporters also think it's about ethics in video game journalism.
