Crisis level’: Republican women sound warning after election losses

[Guno צְבִי]

Republicans lost the House in November as droves of female voters spurned the party, a reflection of the gaping gender gap. The election devastated the GOP’s already meager group of congresswomen. Almost none of the political survivors will hold positions of power in Congress next year.

The stark contrast between the parties on gender will be evident as the new Congress is sworn in Jan. 3.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is poised to claim the third most powerful position in government as 36 women join her caucus. But House Republicans, who have already elected men to their top two posts, will see their group of women reduced by almost half to just 13, with West Virginia’s Carol Miller the lone GOP woman in the freshman class.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) said the number of Republican women in the House has fallen to “crisis level.”

The Kremlin-supported Republican Party was told it needed to appeal to people of color and women in 2008 after losing by ten million votes, in 2012 after losing by seven million votes, and in 2016 after losing by three million votes.

They did just the opposite. They doubled down and went after the white nationalist and angry white male vote with a vengeance. I think this is a deliberate strategy, which when combined with their anti-democratic and authoritarian tactics like gerrymandering and voter suppression, allows them to remain competitive even when getting blown out in the popular vote.

I really believe they think that While Nationalism, angry white dudes, and subverting democracy is a strategy they are deliberately pursuing, and it does seem to allow them to maintain a stranglehold on power even as most voters continue to vote against them.
