I guess when you ask why why some women would vote for Trump, the fact is that a lot of people agree with his views on race. Likewise, remember when notorious womanizer and boxer Floyd Mayweather agreed with Trump's comments about women? Trump can draw racist women and sexist minority men.

A Puerto Rican woman posted a video to Facebook of a racist incident at a restaurant in Arizona during which she was told by a white woman at the next table that America should be all white and that you will be wiped up, trust me.
Lennys Bermudez, a mortgage loans business owner from Scottsdale who filmed the video, said she asked if it was OK to sit next to the woman out of courtesy and was met with the reply: Do I have a choice?
I was so shocked, I asked her to repeat it so I could see her face. Something in me said I should record it, too. Thank God I did! What you see next left me speechless, Bermudez wrote beneath the video on her Facebook page, which has been viewed more than 21,000 times.
The video of the exchange begins with Bermudez saying: Well I have never been told that somebody prefers whites instead of me.

Floyd Mayweather says Trumps locker-room talk is how real men speak
Floyd Mayweather has expressed support for President Trump in the past, and he attended Januarys inauguration. More recently, the once-again retired boxer even offered a defense of Trumps infamous Access Hollywood comments, saying it was the kind of locker-room talk in which real men engage.
Mayweather was appearing on Hollywood Unlocked when the subject of his friendship with Trump arose. Mayweather clarified that he had communicated with Trump and talked with him on a couple of occasions, claiming that he just wanted to say he had been to a presidential inauguration and that it didnt matter who the president was.
Mayweather than asserted that no one ever accused Trump of being a racist until he won the presidency. People dont like the truth, he said, comparing some of Trumps comments to lines in rap music.

She looked pretty "white" to me, not that it's the major point...Just awful, ,outrageous, behavior.

That, at least, is something to be thankful for.
