Listen, Freud would for sure have a field day with the men who bought into fascism because they wanted sex mommies, but what I am offering is a LABOR critique, not psychoanalysis. These men want a return to receipt of unpaid feminine domestic/emotional labor PAIRED with sexual labor.

The other thing is, in a time when Donald Trump has won two presidential elections I simply don't believe that a candidate has to do this sort of too clever by half triangulation to win! If you're not good enough at politics to avoid throwing your own constituencies under the bus then don't run
