It's crazy how Trump can't stop talking about how attractive he finds Kamala. He has compared her to his imported model wife, and to Sophia Loren and Elizabeth Taylor, and then recently he decided enough is enough and went on a rant about how he himself is hotter than Kamala.
I don't remember a single Dem politician or pundit going there at all. Everyone was busy scrutinizing her record, her success chances, and her policy platform for the next 4 years. But then again, I don't remember Dems going far out of their way to call every female politician dumb and unhinged, as is customary in Republican campaigning. This weird cult of sexualizing every woman while calling her stupid, no matter the scenario. She could be an accomplished lawyer with an economics undergrad, wearing a pantsuit covered from neck to toes, and they'll still go there.
It is certainly weird as fuck. IMO it is a dog whistle trying to imply she made her way up using sex as a tool. I doubt he actually finds her attractive. She doesn't look like Ivanka.
Sounds kinda like manosphere PUA negging bullshit. If most women are out of you're league, you gotta cut them down to your level to have a shot. 🙄
Maybe it's because liberals aren't weird and don't view women as pretty objects to be owned. Pretty wild.
It's always risky trying to interpret Trump's words, but my interpretation of what he was trying to say is that the magazine used a drawing of Kamala that made her look beautiful, with the unsaid thing being that he thinks she's ugly in real life. That's why he was going on about the artist.
