How Donald Trump could win back some women

For the most part, women have left Donald Trump’s campaign like rats fleeing a sinking ship that’s also on fire. Trump it seems has done everything he can to alienate women but yet he still has a percent who continue to support him. By most estimates, Clinton is dominating Trump by upwards of 15 points nationwide with women (http://presidentialgenderwatch.org/polls/womens-vote-watch/presidential-polling-data/). Clinton’s female supporters are just as loyal as Trump’s male ones. But even now, Trump still has a sizable percent of women in his corner (33-45% range) with some still undecided. As always, it is these undecideds that can sway the election. If Trump can pick up the remainder of these women who still have yet to back a candidate, in key battleground states such as Pennsylvania, Florida (where Trump just pulled ahead in a new poll http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/26/politics/bloomberg-florida-poll-trump-clinton/index.html), or North Carolina, it is possible for him to stand a fighting chance.

He isn’t going to swing any women from the Hillary camp, especially because of her ability to go after Trump specifically on women’s issues. But if Trump is able to keep that quiet, and focus on other issues that women find appealing, it is possible for him to sway a few minds. His biggest focus in these last 12 days before the election should be on national security, providing reliable jobs, and how he will fix Obamacare. With specifically these three points, he has the opportunity to keep himself relatively safe and at the very least keep the down ballot Republicans for loosing too disastrously.

One last thing Trump needs to quit doing is attacking Bill and Hillary for past misdeeds. At this point, all of America has heard of what Bill did and for Trump to keep bringing up their history keeps his in the news cycle as well. All he needs to do is simply say that he is no longer that person, that he has changed, and that he is sorry for the mistakes he made in the past.
