At a campaign rally in Michigan, Trump targets suburban women voters by promising he is “saving surburbia” and “getting your kids back to school.” He adds, “You know what else? I’m also getting your husbands…they want to get back to work…we’re getting your husbands back to work,” embracing dated gender role expectations of women as dependents on men – whether their own husbands or the president of the United States.
