Voting in a ‘Nasty Woman’ shirt

Main Line taxi driver Rob Connaire, in partnership with The Citizen, offers riders the chance to vent about politics. Watch here to see what real people think about the election

In the run-up to this year’s Presidential election, Rob Connaire, aka Politicabbie, has found a way to take politics back to the people: Take a ride in his Main Line taxi, and he’ll offer you the chance to express your political views, on camera. As he says, “The average bear knows a lot more than politicians give them credit for. Neither my customers nor I have a $10,000 check in our hand, but if we band together a series of conversations, who knows what we could do?” The Citizen will publish Politicab’s videos, which will also be uploaded to YouTube. Maybe our electeds will take heed.

In this episode, an anonymous masked teacher calls Trump a “boob” and says Millenials (at least) knew what the Donald meant when he called Hillary a “nasty woman” at the last debate.

“We know that meant ‘nasty bitch,’” she says. “And bitch is inherently a misogynistic statement. It says, ‘Oh you’re a powerful woman and I’m uncomfortable with that fact.’”

Need a ride and a rant? Call Connaire at 610-291-5618. And stay tuned for more Politicab videos on The Citizen.
