Harris' bet: women's joy vs. men's rage

I'm old enough to remember when the sexist stereotype of feminists was that they're "humorless" and "shrill."

We cannot doubt he's kept up late at night, dwelling on his fear that a woman might be enjoying herself. At a rally in Asheville, North Carolina last week, Trump could not stop babbling furiously about Harris's laugh.
