I think the context is a little different in his statement as what he said was more about the ignorance of a male but not voting for a female candidate just because she was perceived to be not as smart as a male. That’s said. Kansas like most colleges today have a liberal slant and don’t know his politics but maybe there was more to his comments than just the snippet produced. I’ve had roughly 10-15 Managers in the career, and only two women. Those two were in the top 5 of the best ones I’ve had. I’m a firm believer in hiring the best qualified person for the job, regardless of whatever DEI criteria is in place at your job. I don’t discern over race, sexual orientation or religion etc, just give me someone that offers us the best opportunity to succeed. If you don't, you just make your company weaker. That said, in my view there is no comparison of the candidate quality in this presidential electio. Trump is a proven leader (even sans his shortcomings) and the left sees it which is quite telling as they continue to shift over for him in droves.
