Having read your essay, it reminds me how leftist media, intellectuals, and influencers often construct a narrative about Trump and the political right that is readily accepted by left-leaning audiences without critical examination.

Your assertions, undoubtedly drawing from critical theory, frame white women's support for Trump as solely driven by a desire to maintain racial privilege, and you present this interpretation as a self evident truth.

Such perspective disregards other factors such as economic concerns, cultural influences, and personal beliefs.

By treating a framework like critical theory as the one and only truth, you are reducing diverse experiences to a single explanation and shutting down open dialogue.
