Why are Republican women across Washington and the country pushing back against the party's loudest voices promoting trad wife ideals? On this revealing episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, senior political correspondent at the Daily Mail Elina Shirazi joins to break down the growing backlash among GOP women to misogynistic rhetoric in the MAGA movement. From calls to repeal the 19th Amendment and fantasies of single-income households led by men, to the hypocrisy of figures like Erica Kirk running massive organizations while urging others to prioritize family over careers—Shirazi shares insights from her reporting on disenchanted female voters, congressional rebels like Elise Stefanik, military women, and influential conservative podcasters including Brett Cooper and Tomi Lahren who are calling out the party's puritanical turn. They discuss how economic realities make the trad wife vision unworkable for most families, the lack of true female role models in the administration, and why this "lady problem" could spell trouble for Republicans heading into the midterms. How will this wave of discontent among women reshape the future of the GOP?
