Trump says Biden vowing to pick a female VP is insulting to some men

Is this a joke? Is he really this out of touch or is this some political angle that I’m not understanding? Can anybody explain this statement made by Trump?

"I would be inclined to go a different route than what he's done," Trump told Clay Travis, a sports commentator who hosts a national radio show based in Nashville, Tennessee. "First of all he roped himself into a certain group of people."
Trump went on to say that "some people would say that men are insulted by that. And some people would say it's fine. I don't know."

Biden should not have signaled that he would only consider a black woman. Had he simply kept his mouth shut and chosen her, it would not have even been an issue.
He said woman not black woman, he considered women of all races. and it shouldn’t be an issue right now. I’m not finding anybody making a strong argument for how seeking for and picking a woman to be his V.P. is a bad thing
It isn't. His mistake was alerting everyone to the fact that he was rejecting perfectly qualified people based on their chromosomes. Had Trump come out and said he would only consider men as his VP, he would have been roundly criticized for doing so and faced screechings of sexism.
True, and given our countries history and the grossly unbalanced make up of men vs women and white vs other races in our leadership it would absolutely be sexist if Trump said he will only consider a man for the job. Considering a Historically oppressed minority group that has never held the office before is a completely different thing.

No you are just to blinded by bias to understand that what he is saying is 100% correct.
Biden openly stated he will not consider men or anyone who is white.
If that isn't racist/sexist - then nothing is
Biden said he would select a woman. He did not say he wouldn’t consider anyone who is white. In fact he interviewed multiple white women. You’re intel is fake news.

I’d love to hear you try and explain how selecting a woman as V.P. is racist or sexist. That claim is ridiculous
Dude... you are just being obtuse.
There is nothing racist/sexist about selecting a black(ish) woman as running mate.
There is something clearly racist/sexist about declaring those are part of the qualifications.
Hello??? Anyone home??
Ok Shawshank, I heard your claim the first time but I’m asking you to explain how seeking out a woman VP is at all a sexist thing. Do yourself a favor and look up some definitions before you try and defend those words
What? ... uh yeah...
Anyway... I'll try one more time..

If little Johnny has a best friend that happens to be black, and a girl... Little Johnny is not racist/sexist.
But, if little Johnny says he will ONLY be friends with black girls... he is both a racist and a sexist.
Thanks for trying but that one didn’t land. Feel free to try again if you’d like

he is completely right. it is sex discrimination.
Men have been fucking up our country for years. It is nice to have a woman in a leadership position, and I think she is more qualified than most men. Throughout history, women have made great leaders of their countries, and represent half of our population.


oh? if biden dies and harris takes over, are you saying she will not be representing you and your interests and agenda?


will she be governing to advance the interests of women at the expense of men?
I said nothing of the sort. Where did you get that from? If Harris takes over, my view is that she will advance the interests of all true Americans at the expense of assholes.


so, if men can be represented by a woman, then women can be represented by a man.


and there is no reason to be excite about this.

How in the world is it sex discrimination?! I’d love to hear you try and explain this one...


he vowed to pick a woman to be his vp.

that is him saying that no man would be even considered for the job, because of their sex.


if that is not sex discrimination, then nothing is.
Do you know what discrimination means? Also considering the fact that in our countries history we have never had a female hold that office nor has a minority woman even ever been considered for the office... well I think I can make a better case that the discrimination has been on the shoulders of women... not men


the past does not change the fact that biden decided to discriminate against all men based on their sex.


that is sexist discrimination.

Discrimination means unjust or unfair action against a group. The fact that no woman has ever held that office and only men have means that the discrimination has been the other way around and giving a woman the opportunity to be a part of the ticket for the FIRST time is not even close to what you are claiming

"Considering" multiple options is not the same thing as "Restricting" the options. We will only have arrived at true equality when skin color or chromosomal makeup is not even a consideration.

Agreed, but we get there by including oppressed minorities in leadership. It’s time for a women to be represented in top leadership. Biden was being honest, I thought that would be respected over hidden agendas. He thought it was time to give women the platform. I think he is right. I’m not a big Kamala fan but I think Biden made a smart move

but now,?

biden has admitted that he was only considering women.


so now, he is balancing out that past discrimination with some discrimination in the other direction.


that you can look at this obvious sexist discrimination and deny that it is discrimination,


undermines all your claims to be against discrimination.

True, and given our countries history and the grossly unbalanced make up of men vs women and white vs other races in our leadership it would absolutely be sexist if Trump said he will only consider a man for the job. Considering a Historically oppressed minority group that has never held the office before is a completely different thing.
"Considering" multiple options is not the same thing as "Restricting" the options. We will only have arrived at true equality when skin color or chromosomal makeup is not even a consideration.
Agreed, but we get there by including oppressed minorities in leadership. It’s time for a women to be represented in top leadership. Biden was being honest, I thought that would be respected over hidden agendas. He thought it was time to give women the platform. I think he is right. I’m not a big Kamala fan but I think Biden made a smart move



your support of sexist discrimination, and your blatant dishonesty about it, should be considered by all voters.
you call me a supporter of sexism because I support selecting a female for V.P. keep running with that, it makes you sound super smart!
 
Is this a joke? Is he really this out of touch or is this some political angle that I’m not understanding? Can anybody explain this statement made by Trump?

"I would be inclined to go a different route than what he's done," Trump told Clay Travis, a sports commentator who hosts a national radio show based in Nashville, Tennessee. "First of all he roped himself into a certain group of people."
Trump went on to say that "some people would say that men are insulted by that. And some people would say it's fine. I don't know."

Biden should not have signaled that he would only consider a black woman. Had he simply kept his mouth shut and chosen her, it would not have even been an issue.

And, quite frankly, had he not telegraphed what he was going to do, I would have thought it a smart move. Instead, he comes off as, "I don't care how qualified she is, she checks the boxes".
Checking boxes is how it’s being painted but that’s BS. Petty attack talking point. They went through a long and intensive vetting process
And they poisoned the well by telegraphing their intentions from the beginning. I'm sure they went through a vetting process, but it still comes off that way.
I’m sorry you see it that way. I think Biden is doing a great thing for and with women and minorities so I applaud him on his intentions, his transparency and his process

he is completely right. it is sex discrimination.
How in the world is it sex discrimination?! I’d love to hear you try and explain this one...


he vowed to pick a woman to be his vp.

that is him saying that no man would be even considered for the job, because of their sex.


if that is not sex discrimination, then nothing is.
Do you know what discrimination means? Also considering the fact that in our countries history we have never had a female hold that office nor has a minority woman even ever been considered for the office... well I think I can make a better case that the discrimination has been on the shoulders of women... not men


the past does not change the fact that biden decided to discriminate against all men based on their sex.


that is sexist discrimination.
Discrimination means unjust or unfair action against a group. The fact that no woman has ever held that office and only men have means that the discrimination has been the other way around and giving a woman the opportunity to be a part of the ticket for the FIRST time is not even close to what you are claiming


"has been", past sense. perhaps.

but now,?

biden has admitted that he was only considering women.


so now, he is balancing out that past discrimination with some discrimination in the other direction.


that you can look at this obvious sexist discrimination and deny that it is discrimination,


undermines all your claims to be against discrimination.
You’re just plain wrong. By definition and in relation to this situation you are wrong.



at teh start of looking for someone for this job, he made the decision to discriminate against all men.


that is sexist discrimination.


that you think it is justified by past discrimination, is noted. but that does not explain your delusional denial of it.
Is it unjust and unfair to not consider a man for a job that has ALWAYS been held by men? Hell no, so it’s not discrimination. it’s long over due to give a women a turn and there are plenty qualified women out there to choose from.
