Former President Donald Trump spoke at the 76th Annual New Hampshire Federation of Republican Women Lilac luncheon. With Trump's numbers declining with women, it was an important campaign stop since they are the state's largest organization of conservative women. But, of course, it was a cringe-inducing moment.

Trump expressed outrage over the push for electric appliances, even though the former President's tariffs on washing machines made them more unaffordable.

At any rate, it's not a good idea to treat women as housewives from the 1950s. We don't like that, but that's what he did.

"It's so destructive," Trump insisted. "All electric, all-electric everything. Now they want to take away your gas stoves. Does anybody like gas better? You cook a lot more than I do."

"But they want to take it away," the twice-indicted former President continued. "They want to take away your washing machines and your dryers. They don't want to give you any water for the washing machine. Even though you have so much water, you don't know what the hell to do with it up here. It flows out into the ocean."

If that sounds familiar to you, it might be because, in 2019, Trump claimed that we have to flush "toilets 10, 15 times," and I never knew what he was talking about.

I flush mine once. Does anyone here flush their toilet 15 times after peeing in it?
