USA Today Says Doug Emhoff Embodies (and Redefines) Masculinity

We certainly are hearing a lot suddenly about the men at the top of the Kamala Harris campaign: her husband, Doug Emhoff, who could be first gentleman, and Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz. And of course, it's all good. And weird.
They're soy boys ... and soy boys are bizarre, so ...
Soon after Harris revealed Walz as her running mate, Harvard graduate David Hogg claimed that Walz is "the definition of what healthy masculinity looks like." Whatever you say, David. Putting tampons in boys' restrooms is healthy masculinity?!
Worse yet was the opinion piece published by the Washington Post by Catherine Rampell, who argued that perhaps Emhoff's most appropriate title was "progressive sex symbol." Yes, the man who during his first marriage got the nanny pregnant and most likely encouraged her to get an abortion is a progressive sex symbol.
Now USA Today wants to get in on the fun, and it has a piece in its news section about how Emhoff campaigning for his wife embodies (and redefines) masculinity. We think they have that backward; you have to redefine masculinity before you can claim that Emhoff embodies it. Are we using Hogg's standard for health masculinity?

Please, Francesca Chambers, tell us more:
A “guy’s guy” who intersperses quips about his Fantasy football team with knocks on his wife’s Republican opponent, Emhoff has redefined the role of the nation’s second spouse as he hustles to help Harris become the first female president of the United States.
“The model of masculinity he's presenting is one where you can still like sports. You can still like to hang out with your friends. You can still like to defend your family from threats and be supportive of your wife in her role as the leader of the free world– or the leader of whatever organization she is in charge of,” former Harris communications director Jamal Simmons said.
Ah, yes ... a Democrat cat lady is going to know what a "guy's guy" is, eh? Heh heh heh heh heh. A "model of masculinity he's presenting is one where you can still like sports." WTF?! BWHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! "You can still like {LIKE?!} to defend your family from threats ..." - you mean the violent threats that his wife CommieAllah has intentionally imported into this country and continues to aid and abet? And, there is nothing to "like" or "not like" about it, bitch ... defending your family against threats is simply what you DO ... unless, of course, you are a Democrat soy boy.
"Sometimes, it’s lending an arm. Sometimes, it’s procuring a bag of Doritos." The media really is pushing the Doritos angle, even though under the Biden-Harris administration, you get fewer chips per bag because of "shrinkflation" and corporate greed.
Heh heh heh heh heh ... submissively fetching Doritos for Cackles like a wincing, pussy-whipped cuckold is the new Democrat "model of masculinity," now. ROTFLMAO!
"The model of masculinity he's presenting is one where you can still like sports." What? When, or to whom, was it ever not OK to like sports? Was that toxic masculinity? Was having friends toxic masculinity? They define masculinity as well as they do "assault weapon" and "woman."
Jeremy Redfern (@JeremyRedfernFL) ~ This may surprise you ... okay, it won’t ... but, this is not in the opinion section. It’s “news” from USA Today White House correspondent @fran_chambers.
Hmmm ... it really came from the extreme fantasy section of Mad Magazine, but USA Today is so hard up for content that it will desperately grasp for anything that might be available, don'tcha know.
Sharon Peters (@Keggr87) ~ {Replying to @USATODAY} Kamala is the masculine one in that relationship. He is a beta male. There's nothing masculine about him.
Steven (@stevenmirn) ~ {Replying to @USATODAY} One weird nanny f*cker doesn't redefine anything.
Andrea E (@AAC0519) ~ Like so many other attributes associated with MAGA, masculinity is something Democrats desperately crave. They see it but cannot replicate it.
Matt (@mattunc2003) ~ This just in: Liberal women seek beta (and lower men). Water is also, indeed, wet.
Democrat cat ladies need males they can control.
Kelley K (@KelleyKga) ~ Related ...
Robby Starbuck (@robbystarbuck) ~ CNN explains how Democrats are trying to attract more men with low testosterone. You can’t make this stuff up. Simply amazing. 😂😂😂

McLovin (@McLovin6Actual) ~ He definitely "redefines masculinity."
DrM (@DrMagnolias) ~ How does someone both embody and redefine something?
As we said above, they need to redefine masculinity before they can claim Emhoff embodies it.
Democrats attempt to pervert the definition of masculinity as "being a sniveling pussy" so as to match it up with what Doug Emhoff clearly embodies.
Janine Curran (@janinereturns) ~ When did corporate media become so nauseatingly sycophantic?
Joe McWopSki (@LakesFirearmsTr) ~ So, guys are supposed to get the babysitter pregnant and then force her to get an abortion?
The Populist Mad Ox (@TheRealMadOx) ~ The last thing the world needs is for men to be redefined by beta males like Doug.
Shayadjinn (@Shayadjinn1) ~ Doug Emhoff and the word "masculinity" have never even been introduced.
Hey, the man is a progressive sex symbol, all right? His wife is vice president, but he still buys her Doritos.
“I love him. I think that his support of his wife is exactly what I want to see white men in America doing. I think that he is representing what it looks like to stand behind a powerful woman,” said Carol Vinatieri, a Harris volunteer from Abington, who’s training to become a precinct captain.
A Harris volunteer. That's a good source.
