Summary
Vice President Kamala Harris has condemned Trump's comments made at a Wisconsin rally, where he claimed he would protect women 'whether they like it or not.' Harris argues this reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of women's autonomy and reinforces a trend in Trump's rhetoric that devalues women's decision-making capabilities. Amidst a tight election race, both candidates are vying for female voters, with Harris emphasizing the importance of reproductive rights and women's agency, whilst Trump attempts to counter his declining support among women following previous controversial actions and statements.
