Younger men threw their support behind Donald Trump in 2024 after favoring Biden in 2020
The United States is still not ready for a female president after more than a century of unsuccessful campaigns for the White House, according to former First Lady Michelle Obama.
“As we saw in this past election, sadly, we ain’t ready,” Obama said earlier this month in a live conversation with actor Tracee Ellis Ross that was published Friday.
“That’s why I’m like, don’t even look at me about running, because you all are lying,” she said. “You’re not ready for a woman. You are not. So don’t waste my time.”
You make some really good points. I had to look it up and apparently it is not uncommon to have a country that has never had a woman as its top leader.

Also, if you add up all the years women have actually been a leader it is just a token amount.

So clearly this is not just a US thing. Why women are so grossly underrepresented in politics appears to be pretty universal.
