Trump Fan Says Quiet Part Out Very, Very Loud With Disgusting Anti-Haley Comment

The opinion is rarely said this explicitly and in front of a camera, admitted NBC News Shaquille Brewster after the interview.

A voter in North Carolina faced fierce backlash over his highly offensive reasons for not even thinking about supporting GOP hopeful Nikki Haleys presidential run.

NBC News Shaquille Brewster asked the man identified as Emmett Martin, and whod claimed things were a whole lot better with Donald Trump in office if hed ever considered Haley for the White House.

You know, what I got to say, you dont really want to put it on, he replied.

When pressed for an answer by Brewster, Martin let rip: A woman is not going to be a good president. She dont have no balls to scratch. Shes just gonna scratch her head. All a woman is good for in my book is having babies and taking care of the house. Thats the old thing. You know, Im old school.

Brewster sought to clarify: So, you never even considered her, mainly because shes a woman?

Martin replied, Because shes female. Dont get me wrong: Females know what theyre doing, but they still got to have a little bit of guidance.

Trump would provide that guidance, he added.

Brewster shared the video of the exchange on X, formerly Twitter, and addressed the sexism and misogyny that Haley has faced throughout her bid to loosen Trumps grip on the GOP.

Men and women have told me they wouldnt vote for Haley because shes a woman before (and in plenty of other states), but rarely is it said this explicitly and in front of a camera, he wrote.

On X, critics couldnt believe that such views still existed in 2024:
