Steamroll them like these women did, okay? They don't control us, and they don't control our destiny.

I hate this crap. I hate all of this crap. Okay. We just got through with an election cycle that really highlighted significant divisions between men and women. I feel like there's this effort to pit Americans against each other, depending on their identity or based on their identity. I don't see men as the enemy here. Okay. I think men in America have their own issues and
