Like Hillary Clinton in 2016, Kamala Harris had a shot at becoming the first woman to occupy the Oval Office but stumbled at the final hurdle. While the charisma of their opponent \u2014 Donald Trump, in both cases \u2014 clearly played a role in these historic defeats, many observers also saw misogyny as a factor.<\/p>\n<p>In their dueling campaigns, Harris and Trump laid out starkly different visions for women\u2019s status and rights. Trump, who has faced multiple accusations of sexual assault he denies, sought to broadcast a hypermasculine image, appearing alongside mixed martial artists and offering praise for autocratic world leaders. He and his campaign surrogates also made multiple comments that were criticized as insulting or contemptuous of women.<\/p>\n<p>He called Harris \u201ccrazy\u201d and \u201cmentally disabled,\u201d and claimed she would be \u201clike a play toy\u201d for other world leaders if elected. His running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, doubled down on a quip he made in 2021 about \u201cchildless cat ladies\u201d running the country, saying \u201cI\u2019ve got nothing against cats.\u201dTrump also presented himself as a \u201cprotector\u201d of women, saying he would protect them whether they \u201clike it or not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Harris by contrast relied heavily on female celebrities such as Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga and Oprah Winfrey, betting that they would help her reach even conservative women voters. Harris did not campaign openly on the fact that she would have been the first female president of the United States. But she made the defense of women\u2019s rights, and abortion in particular, one of the cornerstones of her campaign. This does not appear to have won over enough moderately conservative women.<\/p>\n<p>At a campaign rally last month, former first lady Michelle Obama denounced the apparent double standard by which the two White House candidates were judged. \u201cWe expect her to be intelligent and articulate, to have a clear set of policies, to never show too much anger, to prove time and time again that she belongs,\u201d she said of Harris. \u201cBut for Trump, we expect nothing at all. No understanding of policy, no ability to put together a coherent argument, no honesty, no decency, no morals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Center for American Women and Politics also pointed to that double standard in a statement on Trump\u2019s victory. Harris had been a \u201cformidable fundraiser\u201d who \u201cconnected with voters,\u201d it said. \u201cUnfortunately, this contest also exemplified research on the obstacles women face when running for office, chief among them the unequal expectations placed upon women, and women of color in particular, who run for office.\u201d Women have held \u201cevery political office in America. Except one,\u201d it continued, vowing: \u201cThe work continues.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/americans-must-wait-for-their-first-woman-president\/article\">DJ<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/americans-must-wait-for-their-first-woman-president\/\">Americans must wait for their first woman president<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[16836,555,14762],"class_list":["post-135190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-americans-must-wait-for-their","tag-csr-news-en","tag-first-woman-president"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135190","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135190"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135190\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135190"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135190"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
