Trump’s Dangerous Masculinity: “I’m Gonna Do It Whether Women Like It or Not”

The Trump campaign strategised to appeal to male voters by increasing levels of misogyny and vilifying women. Signs of their misogynistic ethos included inappropriate “jokes”, devaluations of women and rape threats towards celebrities who expressed anti-Trump sentiments.

The recent change requiring US airlines to automatically refund passengers for canceled or significantly delayed flights has been a long overdue development in consumer protection. It’s quite shocking to think this wasn’t a standard practice before. In an industry that can disrupt lives with mere announcements of delays or cancellations, automatic refunds provide a much-needed cushion for travelers. I speak from experience; being on the receiving end of a canceled flight is not just an inconvenience; it can throw every part of your carefully planned itinerary into disarray.

I remember when Allegiant Airlines canceled my flight to Florida just before Hurricane Milton made its chaotic impact known.… Continue reading

As the daughter of former President George W. Bush and granddaughter of George H.W. Bush, Barbara is situated in a unique position within the longstanding Bush political legacy.
