Hey look! Yet another conservative policy that abuses women. I'm sure if they keep voting for the big (R) it'll get better any day now. Oh wait, taking away the vote from anyone not white and land owning is a conservative policy plank.

Intentionally so.

Trump wants to stay in power, by any means necessary, legal, ethical or otherwise. Usually otherwise. His main motivation for this is simply his massive ego.

Many different groups want to help him stay in power, so he can remain a useful idiot for them. Most of these groups just want the usual corruption stuff. They just want to use Trump to try and get rich. But some have more ideological goals: White supremacy, expanding the US empire and strengthening US global hegemony, neoliberalism/right wing libertarianism/anarcho capitalism, techno feudalism, White Christian nationalism, and others. Some, like China and Russia, want Trump to stay in power because they know he will continue to weaken the US, and they want to see the US weakened, if not eventually collapse (honestly, I'm fairly sympathetic to this one).

VP Permaliner doesn't want single women without children to vote...

President 🦧 doesn't want married women to vote...

Call me hysterical and have my husband commit me crazy, but I kind of get the feeling they just don't want any women voting.
