A group of self-proclaimed undecided women voters in North Carolina had some harsh words for former President Donald Trump in a roundtable discussion with liberal outlet CNN.
While President Joe Biden’s re-election bid against Trump remains vulnerable, his campaign has stated that it believes one of his best paths to victory is to allude to Trump’s alleged cruelty toward women. However, a January poll showed that Biden’s lead over Trump among young women, as in many demographic groups, had diminished.
CNN hosted a focus group focused on women voters in North Carolina, a state that Trump won in 2020 and 2016 but remains on Democrats’ wish list to turn blue for the first time since 2008.
Two of the women voted for Trump, but they are all concerned about the president’s legal problems, and one woman, Shante Williams, was so upset that she demanded he be put in the hole.
‘I don’t mind! Put him in jail! We don’t hesitate to put other inmates in solitary confinement,” she stated. ‘Put him there and shut up. He can talk to walls. He can talk to rats. I don’t care.’

While President Joe Biden’s re-election bid against Trump remains vulnerable, his campaign has stated that it believes one of his best paths to victory is to allude to Trump’s alleged cruelty toward women. However, a January poll showed that Biden’s lead over Trump among young women, as in many demographic groups, had diminished.
Several panelists seemed to believe that it was unlikely that Trump would ever see consequences for his action.
“He sees himself as completely Teflon,” Trish Saemann said. “He doesn’t stick at all and I’m very nervous because he’s starting to seem like he’s right.”
All of the panelists believed Trump should face trial, saying there were simply too many charges against the president to ignore.
‘How many times can you say it’s a witch hunt? Personally, I’m tired of hearing it,” said one of the undecided.
They all confirmed that if he were found guilty in the Stormy Daniels case to maintain his silence, they would never consider voting for him.
President Joe Biden recently attempted to hit Donald Trump on the abortion issue in an appeal to women on a rare visit to the former president’s home state of Florida last week.
The president’s campaign maintains that once Florida’s abortion law goes into effect (it bans abortions after six weeks, which is before many women know they are pregnant) there will effectively be an abortion ban across the Southeast. of the nation.
“Many women in the Southeast may have to drive for a day or more to get to the nearest clinic,” Biden campaign communications director Michael Tyler said in a call with reporters Monday.

“There is one person to blame for this cruelty and it is Donald Trump.”
The president’s re-elect team also argued that Florida is in play for them this cycle.
“With our large monetary advantage, the Biden campaign has many paths to victory and that includes Florida,” Tyler said.
Biden and his team have been trying to link the 2024 election to access to reproductive rights across the country.
They see it as a priority issue – and a winning issue for them – in all the battleground states across the country.
Abortion rights turned out to be a winning issue for Democrats in the 2022 midterm elections, when the party did much better than expected.
Biden has built on the raft of abortion laws enacted across the country since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
Donald Trump said the abortion issue should be left in the hands of the states
Thousands of pro-choice activists and allies demonstrate in Orlando, Florida, to protest the state’s abortion ban.
Florida ban sparked outrage across state
Earlier this month, Trump said the abortion issue should be left up to individual states to decide.
‘My view is that now that we have abortion where everyone wanted it from a legal standpoint, states will determine it by voting or legislation, or perhaps both. And whatever they decide should be the law of the land. In this case, the law of the State,’ the former president said in a video published on his Social Truth account.
Some conservatives criticized Trump for his stance. He had previously hinted that he would accept a national ban on abortions every 15 weeks.
