Trump claims he will protect women regardless of their opinions, drawing criticism from Harris

Former President Donald Trump stated at a rally in Wisconsin that he would "protect" women "whether the women like it or not." This remark drew immediate criticism from Vice President Kamala Harris and her campaign, who argued it reflects a disregard for women's autonomy. Harris highlighted Trump's comments on social media, suggesting he believes he should control women's choices. In response, Trump's campaign emphasized his focus on security and economic issues, claiming Harris's policies have harmed women. Polling shows a significant gender gap, with women favoring Harris and men supporting Trump. Abortion remains a key issue for voters, with many prioritizing it in their decision-making.
