Political ad ignites conservative anger over women possibly hiding their votes from their husbands

[Dulcinea]

(NBC News) A political video reminded women that they can vote for Vice President Kamala Harris without telling their husbands, enraging prominent conservatives and reigniting a fiery discourse that highlights the central role of gender in this year’s election.

The video, which began circulating last week, opens with a woman about to enter the polling booth after her husband, looking nervously back at him before she makes her choice. She locks eyes with another woman as they fill out their ballots for Harris.

“In the one place in America where women still have a right to choose,” actor Julia Roberts narrates, alluding to an ongoing partisan battle over reproductive rights, “you can vote any way you want and no one will ever know.”

1. Too fucking bad.

2. Claire McCaskill had the best response to their, "Can you imagine a woman not telling

her husband who she's voting for?"

Claire: "Can you imagine a man sleeping with a porn star when his wife has just given birth?"

[Think. Again.]

3. There is nothing "conservative" about being "enraged"....

....by the thought of women voting.

4. Ha! Conservatives have been suckered into controlling their wives!! Publicly!

It's all on the table now.

[Think. Again.]

5. Please don't call rightwing radicals "conservative"...

...that word just doesn't apply to republicans.

7. It most certainly does!

Bringing women back to the 19th century is conservative by definition.

[Think. Again.]

8. No, there's nothing restrained, cautious, or moderate....

....about anything the radical rightwng does or thinks.

They like to use the word "conservative" to camoflage their extremism, but we don't have to help them.

6. We need to rethink our use of the word conservative when describing MAGAs.

MAGAs are not conservative. They’re anti-American. Some are fascists. Most want to tear our country apart. They want power. Total power. No guardrails.
