Donald Trump sought the presidency three times. On each of those occasions, his opponents were lawyers with experience in Congress, the White House and other government agencies.
Trump's background was in real estate.
Yet, Trump won twice, when his opponents were women.
What does that say about the preferences of American voters? Can you say "male chauvinist"? The only time Trump lost election was when his opponent was a man, specifically Joe Biden, a former member of the Senate and vice president to Bill Clinton.
(An argument can be made that he did not win the first election, but rather manipulated the electoral vote in a court battle with the backers of Hillary Clinton, a lawyer, member of Congress, delegate to the United Nations and married partner with President Bill Clinton.)
In his third bid for the presidency, Trump defeated Kamala Harris, a woman who had served as a trained lawyer, a member of Congress and as vice president with Joe Biden.
