I laughed from the start. You are wonderfully unique and bold to flat out write it like you see it. I reflected on my own personal style. I spent 40 years in engineering. For Easter, I chose a blue shirt, yellow tie, khaki pants, my "dress" New Balance sneakers and a Jos A Bank sport jacket. I will spare you a photo. A sad note, we are so appearance conscious. I t is sad, especially when it comes to photo ops in fatigues while holding a weapon. And the Fox News thing has bothered me, but then they are so cute. I realize I would not write all this publicly and admire you for doing it.

The ideas in this piece are something I’ve never even considered, much less thought about so deeply. Too much of what I see is something I’ve already completely mulled over in my mind or even written about, but with your articles, I am regularly exposed to some fresh perspectives.

I don’t think I personally know that world well enough to pull it off—I grew up in Republican spaces—but someone else could!

This feels spot on… and made me so glad that God delivered me out of the world of Republican politics, and politics in general!

The only reason Thatcher wasn’t Republican is she wasn’t American. Otherwise, she is the original modern Republican. The comparison is apt.

I love this ethnographic exposition!!! Both insightful and appropriately cheeky/humorous.

I wonder what the actual stats are but it seems like 1 or maybe 2 out of every 10 women are remotely rightwing leaning.

I would not be the first to point out "Mar-A-Lago Face" as a trend for Team R human females.
