Joe Biden announced Senator from California Kamala Harris as his running mate for the 2020 presidential election, garnering nation-wide praises for picking a Black Indian American woman to be his vice president. Donald Trump reacted to his opponent's well-received move by offering a divisive message to the country's women voters, much to the chagrin of some Republican operatives.

Trump is leaving no stone unturned in a bid to win back a core constituency that played a vital role in his 2016 win: white women. Retaliating Biden's move of tapping a Black woman to be his running mate, Trump is trying to lure back women voters using a series of tweets, coupled with a last-minute policy initiative created exclusively to induce potential concerns about their families and communities.

Making some major changes in fair-housing regulations, Trump wants to let suburban housewives know that the move will not only keep their neighborhoods safe but also fend off low-income housing projects. He has falsely accused Biden of wanting to defund the police, claiming that would lead to a surge in crime across the suburbs.

Moreover, Trump has been pushing for schools to reopen in the fall in a bid to win over women having a hard time taking care of their children. Keeping in line with this strategy, a bright pink bus with "Women for Trump" printed on it kicked off a nation-wide tour with planned stops at Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Florida.

Taking to his Twitter account, Trump claimed that the suburban housewife will be voting for him. He went on to say that they want safety and appreciate the fact that he ended the long-running program that allowed low-income housing to invade their neighborhood.

This has turned out to be an existential issue for his political future. Back in 2016, Trump won a crucial demographic in the form of white women without a college degree by an impressive 27 percentage points. By May, his opponent has closed the aforesaid gap to just 6 points, according to a survey conducted by ABC/Washington Post.

The poll suggests that Trump has lost the edge that he had in 2016 when he won suburban voters with a 49 percent lead as compared to his opponent's 45 percent. Trump's threatening approach to women isn't well-received even among some Republican pollsters, who are raising questions about the president's gambits, specifically his predictions about crimes running rampant in the suburbs and claims about low-income housing causing suburban property values to drop.
