Why don’t the president’s supporters hold him to their own standard of masculinity?

6:00 AM ET

Tom Nichols
Author of The Death of Expertise

"So many mysteries surround Donald Trump: the contents of his tax returns, the apparent miracle of his graduation from college. Some of them are merely curiosities; others are of national importance, such as whether he understood the nuclear-weapons briefing given to every president. I prefer not to dwell on this question.

But since his first day as a presidential candidate, I have been baffled by one mystery in particular: Why do working-class white men—the most reliable component of Donald Trump’s base—support someone who is, by their own standards, the least masculine man ever to hold the modern presidency? The question is not whether Trump fails to meet some archaic or idealized version of masculinity. The president’s inability to measure up to Marcus Aurelius or Omar Bradley is not the issue. Rather, the question is why so many of Trump’s working-class white male voters refuse to hold Trump to their own standards of masculinity—why they support a man who behaves more like a little boy..."

I've been screaming this forever, so I'm glad somebody finally put out an article about it.

I think, somehow, right-wingers have become confused about what "masculinity" is... probably because their right-wing parents do such a lousy job raising them.   I've seen that in person more than I care to -- I've got right-wing co-workers and damn near every one of 'em have kids who are in and out of jail and rehab because they're so fucked up.  Honestly, the only ones I know who don't are because their kids are under 10 years old.   And just you wait...   I've got right-wing cousins and their kids are also in and out of jail and rehab constantly.   One 'em would still be in prison for armed robbery if his rich-ass dad didn't own Trent Lott and get him to take a bribe to get it wiped off his record, so they could defraud the Armed Services and get him in there.  (Dumb kid didn't let his dad and Trent know that he also had a drug conviction in Louisiana, so they didn't wipe that one out and the Army found out about it -- ruh-roh!)  

We've wound up with a generation of pathetic, lost, whiney-bitch "red-pilled" males who buy into all sorts of "MGTOW" bitter-incel bullshit and think guys like Elliot Rodger (the guy who went out and tried to shoot a bunch of girls for "revenge" because they weren't attracted to him) are "heroes."  The internet, especially YouTube, are full of guys struggling with the concept of what being "masculine" is, and almost always getting it wrong.  They've even taken the term "toxic masculinity" to be an attack on all masculinity (it isn't -- in fact, "men's rights activists" originated the term themselves to describe what was wrong with some men), just like they think "Black Lives Matter" implies that other lives don't (which, also, isn't the point at all).  I'm thinking people are just really, really stupid nowdays, and too childish to see beyond their own immediate needs... which might be why Trump appeals to them, because he's so infantile.

 If you really look at a lot of these guys, they're obviously gay and are trying to keep from admitting it.   There's nothing wrong with being gay, but the denial of what their behavior really adds up to is twisting them in weird ways.  They want women for sex, but want all their relationships to be just with other men.  They don't respect women at all, and all their real "love" is for this "brotherhood" thing, and they bond over using women.  It's like they can't handle sex with men so they compartmentalize that off and think that makes them "more heterosexual," when it really does the opposite.  And they're obsessed with "testosterone," which is kind of a creepy thing for males to be concerned with when it comes to other males.  Occasionally you'll see guys complaining about "the new generation having a lower sperm count" and that comes across like it's cheating them personally!  They always say it so it comes across as "Milkshakes aren't as thick as they used to be and that pisses me off!"  It's really latent stuff to be concerned about.


And it all comes out in this Trump thing, where they have all these pictures of him as Rambo and stuff, and... it's ridiculous.  Trump is a huge priss.  He's a vain, makeup-wearing, jewelry-wearing, gossipy hen-party who's-looking-at-me-now-and-what-are-they-saying high-school-mean-girl bitch.  Now, I'm not saying those things are all female characteristics -- obviously they aren't.  And I off-and-on date a woman who fixes motorcycles and fights, so I don't limit women to anything.  But those things are typically not things that men admire in other men.  Overall, Trump is not what you'd consider "manly."  He's soft.  And he's immature.  Like the article says, he's a little boy.  He whines that he's not treated nicely enough, that things aren't "fair,"  he blames other people for everything he does.  He's like those kids in the stupid Family Circus strip with their "Not Me, Ida Know, Nobody" ghosts.

And this one:

And this one:

Anyway, where was I?   Oh, yeah.  It's beyond weird that they see Trump as a "tough guy."  All he does is mouth off.  Whenever he's around anybody who can hit back, he crouches and piddles.

Like with Obama.  Every time Trump's actually been around Obama, he's been meek and actually seems scared and servile.  Then he says a bunch of stuff... and then he's afraid to unveil a portrait at the White House because Obama would be there in person for it, and he'd have to be face-to-face with him.  And Trump can't handle it.  The only time you see him really go at anybody is when he's facing reporters who he knows aren't going to just get up and deck him.  And most of those reporters are women, who he loves cussing out... which also kind of appeals to his "redpill" incel base, who tend not to like women much.

Anyway, whole thing's very weird.  I think we've got a lot of very confused people in our population right now.

For his mouth-breathing supporters, Trump insults all the right people.

They’re more than willing to overlook everything else in exchange.

Pathetic, but reality.

bigdog



Sal is right. As long as he insults the right people, he owns them. Also, they are by far more like him than they are the figures they try to portray in public. Half of the guys out there wearing those camo suits and carrying their rifles were never in the military at all, and the ones who were are, very sadly, so unable to make it out in the real world that they have to spend their whole lives bragging about the 3 or 4 years of their lives that they may have actually done something important. Real men serve their country, get out, raise families and work hard to support them, and don't spend the rest of their lives dressing in a way that is supposed to impress others and begs people to thank them for their service. Real men only wear camo in the woods and that's the only place they carry a gun as well. Because that stuff makes sense if you're hunting. It doesn't make sense on the steps of a state capital building.
Trump's supporters are just like him-a bunch of bullies who want to control the playground, and to do so they have to pretend to be something they aren't, which is tough guys or heroes. All it takes is for the rest of us kids on the playground to laugh them off the field when we vote in November. There are definitely enough of us to do it, unless we let them cheat. That's the one thing that has to be stopped.

Here's something fun that Trump's cultists just don't get:  we don't expect Biden (or anyone else) to be perfect, just better.   And that's not even a contest.   We have two choices to choose from.  One of these people is going to be president, we have to pick one.  And if they want to depict a choice as worse than Trump, well, they've got their fuckin' work cut out for 'em, and they can save themselves some time by despairing right here and right now, 'cuz, buddy, you and yours are not an acceptable alternative.  You had your chance, and you fucked up skyrockets-going-off-spectacular at that.  I wouldn't join your fucking team if you were the last one on earth.  

Just assume that aaaaaaaalllllllllll the rotten shit Trump's slavish devotees say about Biden is true.   It isn't, o' course -- the shit right-wingers come up with is consistently dishonest and they've proven that again and again and again -- but, just supposin'.  Take it all and double it, even.  Even pretend that 90% of it isn't really old shit.  Heap on some new shit.  Make things up!

Even if you convinced people of all of it -- and conservatives are such known liars at this point that they really don't have a hope of doing that, hell, yesterday even goddamn Limbaugh was bragging on how much conservatives just make shit up and fool their base with it -- you still don't have something worse than Trump.   Not even CLOSE, not even within a thousand country MILES.  Hell, Trump makes DUBYA look competent, and most of the world still hates Dubya.  You're really trying to kick water uphill if you're gonna be making a case for Trump or hoping to make his opposition look worse.

Say that Biden plagiarized.

Yeah?  Well, Trump's a fucking sociopath who's emboldened neo-Nazis just to solidify his base.   Try to fucking top that with me.  You can't.   Trump's done plagiarism of his own -- https://www.plagiarismtoday.com/2016/03/18/donald-trump-plagiarism-controversy/ -- and so has his that stupid parakeet he has for a wife, but I really don't even fucking CAAAARRREE about plagiarism as an issue when one of the guys is a Nazi appeaser.  

We could actually stop right there, because "and your guy is a Nazi-appeaser" is enough of a deal-sealer for me.  But, let's keep going.

Say Biden is creepy with women.

Maybe so.  Aaaaand... who's he running against?   Why, he's running against Mr. "Grab 'Em By The Pussy" who cheated on his wife with a porn star (among others) and has over 25 rape charges against him, including that of a 13-year old.  So, really, fuck you for even trying that one considering the alternative you're offering.   We got Mr. Kinda-Creepy, y'all's ass got Ted Bundy, a'ight?

Say Biden's "senile."

Well, at best that'd put 'em on even ground, wouldn't it?  Because I've watched Trump.  You'll have a long damn way to go before you get anybody to come across as crazier or more unfit for the job than that looneytoon piece of shit.   So, again, crash against the rock of the eternal shore and crumble if that's gonna be your tactic, budreaux.  You are fucked from the gate.  Your hero wants to fucking inject Clorox, chuckles!  He sucks down every wacko conspiracy theory that comes down the pike like a whale sucking up krill.  He's an old man who's never gotten out of his terrible twos.  Yeah, let's play chicken with the sanity of our candidates, c'mon, I'll do that every day of the week and twice on Thursday, bee-yatch! What a Face

Say Biden's son got some business deal due to nepotism, etc.

You really wanna even try stacking that against the corruption from Trump's little crime family?   Oh, son, believe me, you don't, you really don't.  You are soooooo effed-in-tha-A if you even try to clear the launch pad with that shit.

Now this, this is the really good one, which our resident pissant, in all his self-unaware ineptitude, just attempted.   Brace yourself, because this one's reaaaaally gigglesome to contemplate:

Say that Biden tells lies.

Very Happy   C'mon, baby, have you seen Trump's relationship with the truth?   I don't think the headcase can tell you the truth about what he ate for breakfast, because it'd give him more of a buzz to make something up.  Good  luck portraying Biden as the "liar" in this race, flipperhead!  Very Happy  Biden could say "I can flap my arms and fly" and Trump would still be five figure digits worth of whoppers ahead of 'im.  

Where else you wanna go?  Whatever it is, I guarantee you that, out of the two choices before us, one of which is going to win, Trump will be FAR worse.  

Trump has made America look like a country of idiots for even tolerating his childish behavior.  Trump has crouched-and-piddled like a servile dog before adversaries like Putin and even Kim Jong Il, who doesn't even have all that many chits to play with!  Trump has killed off America's world standing.  Trump has destroyed our international trade and shown the world they can work around us -- they've made new trade alliance we've been left out of.   Trump's "let's just hope it'll go away" attitude turned what could have been a public health issue into a body count of 100,000 (and that's just in four months) and an economic crisis that may turn into a depression, so... yeah, tell me again how Biden didn't cross all his T's and dot all his I's, you mewling pathetic JOKE.

Nobody thinks they're electing someone who's perfect and flawless.  We never have, we never will, it'll never even be an option.  But as far as picking the best of the two choices available to us?   We ARE, fuckwit, we most definitely are, and you don't even have anything CLOSE to luring us away from it, so give up.  You have nothing to offer, and you never have, other than being someone to laugh at and to strive to be nothing like.   Anybody that anyone has ever elected has been a compromise in one way or another.  I'm very comfortable with the choice to be made, given knowledge of the competing option.

The biggest problem is why are we in the same place as the last election? Two unbelievably crappy choices out of the entire adult population?? One reason is the fanatical and generally hyper-partisan media sand blasting every potential candidate until they give up. Digging up crap they MIGHT have done years ago, speculation is the new media standard, not verified facts. And stupidos from every political bent (liberal and conservative) eat it up with a spoon. Anyone who wants to run for a major office in this day and age HAS to be crazy and rich or have access to major money.

Nope, gator fan, because Sal is right. If the Democratic party ran Jesus Christ against Donald Trump you'd say he was a sorry excuse for a candidate that nobody could possibly really want in the White House.

You're a Trumpster to the end and have shown it multiple times on here. There's never been any chance you'd ever vote for anyone else.
Personally, I'm delighted, excited, and just pleased as punch that Joe Biden is going to be our candidate. He is the one democrat that Trump knows can beat the hell out of him Come November. Trump is pissing his pants looking at the polls right now and so are a lot of his closest advisors.

Biden's a good man, a decent man, and more importantly, willing to listen to the different views of others along the way. He and Elizabeth Warren have been buddy-buddy since the primaries and he's already adopted some of her ideas like canceling student loans. Not all of us Dems are holding our noses and voting for him-that's your fantasy and it always was a fantasy, just like the fantasy that the Democratic party was ready for a far left candidate like Bernie. It ain't so and never was so. November is going to prove it. America is a nation of centrists, no matter how people label themselves when a pollster calls them to ask.

Nope, never have been a Trumpet fan and have never posted anything positive about him on here. I actually wanted Pete Buttigieg to move forward but the Dem machine didn't allow that. I didn't like all of his positions but he seemed level-headed, Not like Biden or Trump.

It's almost like you people simply scan a post without really reading it. Or as some do on here (like Sally Girl) attempt to twist it around to match their twisted logic.

Of course you wanted Pete to be the nominee. He would have gotten less votes than any other democrat in the race. Trump would have trounced him.
Which is what you would have wanted to happen.

Personally can't get inside gatorfan's head to know his true intentions (though admittedly can't see him ever voting for a Dem), but it's certainly true that Buttigieg would've been thoroughly trounced.  He had virtually ZERO support from the African American contingent.  That's an absolute no win scenario.

What you (and Linda) are saying is that YOU'RE CENTRISTS. My interpretation of that is that you prefer the status quo. All that has changed; there no longer exists a "normal". Better get off the fence and into the fray.
Liz Warren is no "far left" candidate; just a highly educated professor who sees, probably better than most people, what has to change for the good of the country.

We're saying we're centrists as are most Americans, and that includes most Democrats.  Being a centrist does NOT preclude favoring and supporting beneficial change.

Meanwhile, you blithely continue to ignore the exponentially clear results of the Democratic primaries. Do so at your own peril, not ours.

The science part of my marketing degree has to do with statistical probabilities, which includes polling techniques...who, what, when, where, why, what questions, etc. That's one reason I'm always skeptical about polls. In this political climate, there can be no centrists. Wishy washy won't cut it.

Speaking of polls, this from CNN - definitely worth a read (highlights mine):

Warren as Biden's running mate makes no electoral sense

(CNN)Poll of the week: A new national Ipsos/Reuters poll finds former Vice President Joe Biden with a 45% to 39% lead over President Donald Trump.
Biden's lead is confirmed by an ABC News/Washington Post poll out Sunday morning putting Biden at 53% to Trump's 43% among registered voters.
What's the point: Biden's lead has stayed consistent, though the race is close enough that Trump could close the gap in the five months between now and the election. Biden may try to shore up his position through his vice presidential selection.
A potential running mate who has gotten more attention recently is Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren. But a look at the data reveals choosing Warren makes little sense electorally speaking.

Start off with the fact that selecting Warren could cost the Democrats a Senate seat. Outside Massachusetts changing its law, a Warren Senate vacancy would be filled by Republican Gov. Charlie Baker.
So what could possibly make Biden risk a Senate seat by choosing Warren?
The electoral argument for Warren has been outlined well by famed Democratic pollster Stan Greenberg. Biden has electoral weaknesses among Democratic voters mostly on Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders' part of the party and Warren can help with those.

However, the public polling suggests differently. Combining our last two CNN polls (March and May) that asked about Warren's favorability finds that she gets about a -20 point net favorability (favorable - unfavorable) among Democratic leaning voters who say they are not voting for Biden at this point.
That makes sense when you look at the groups Biden is doing well with and the voters Warren generally appealed to during the 2020 primaries.
Biden's actually doing quite well on his left, for example. An average of recent live interview polls shows that Biden's getting 85% among self-described liberal voters. Trump's scoring just 9%. Four years ago, an average of pre-election polls taken after the third presidential debate put Hillary Clinton at 77% and Trump at 10% among self-described liberal registered voters.
In other words, Biden is doing better than Clinton did among self-described liberals.
Another group where Warren showed real strength in the primary season was among white college educated women. In states with entrance or exit polls, Warren got 22% of their vote on average, compared to the 13% that she got overall in those states.
Like with liberals, Biden is performing very well for a Democrat among white college educated women. An average of recent polls puts Biden at 61% and Trump at 36% among them. The final pre-election polls from four years ago had Clinton with a 52% to 36% edge.
This is not to say all is well with Biden and the Democratic base. Biden does have problems with three key parts of the Democratic coalition: black voters (particularly young ones), Hispanic voters and young voters generally. Biden holds large leads among all, but not to the same degree that Clinton held at the end of the 2016 campaign.
These are mostly groups that Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders did well with in the primary, but there's little sign Warren has any special appeal to them. She underperformed with all of them in the primary.
Warren averaged 7% of the black vote in primaries where black voters made up at least 5% of voters. She got 11% of black voters under the age of 30 in these same contests. Warren averaged 12% of the vote overall in these states.
Warren scored an average of 8% of the Hispanic vote in primaries in which Hispanics made up at least 5% of voters. She earned 13% of the primary vote on average in these same contests.
Warren took an average of 12% from voters under the age of 30 in the primary. She averaged 13% in these contests overall.
None of this is to say that selecting Warren would hurt Biden. The political science literature indicates that vice presidential picks don't make much of an electoral difference, except for maybe a slight home state boost -- and Massachusetts is already quite blue. Polls that indicate they can be game changers generally use flawed design. Nothing discussed above or in Warren's electoral history suggests she will break that streak, given she has underperformed the Democratic baseline performance in her Senate runs.

If Biden's going to put a Senate seat at play with no real shot at electoral payoff, he'd need not to have any other potential candidates. He has so many of them that my colleague Chris Cillizza has a regular column ranking the top 10 of them.

National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), a nonprofit public interest organization, filed a complaint with the Department of Education requesting that it conduct a full investigation into the University of Pennsylvania’s failure to disclose the source of millions of dollars of donations from China since 2013 to the university and its Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement as required by law.

Since 2017 alone, when the Biden Center opened and after Joe Biden announced he was running for President in April 2018, the university received over $70 million from China, of which $22 million were listed as “Anonymous.” Federal law requires the disclosure of the source of all donations over $250,000. The complaint also requests referral to the Department of Justice to file an enforcement action seeking compliance and to recoup all the costs of the investigation.
