On Tuesday, data scientist Nate Silver tweeted a map of what the election would look like if only women voted and what it would look like if only men voted.

Someone replied to Silver with the hashtag #RepealThe19th, referring to the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote, The Los Angeles Times reports.
@NateSilver538 Women are not fit for politics. #RepealThe19th

Give out nice enough handbags and most broads would gladly trade their voting rights for one. #repealthe19th

This is why we need to repeal and not replace the 19th amendment. #RepealThe19th https://t.co/bV4WnbgQ2H

@emmaroller men should never have given women the right to vote #RepealThe19th

Women reacting to @HillaryClinton with tears, exaggerated "you go girl" cheers, &c. is a solid argument for why we need to #RepealThe19th.

On the bright side, Trump opponents have hijacked the hashtag to voice their disapproval and even got a few good jokes out of it.
In response to a study showing Trump would win if only men voted, some of his backers are tweeting #RepealThe19th. DEPLORABLE. #WomenSaveUs

Literally the ONLY thing that surprises me about #RepealThe19th is that Trump supporters know there are more than 2 amendments.

#repealthe19th This is why the only group that trump leads in the polls is uneducated white men.

#RepealThe19th is trending which is an excellent way for the #Trump campaign to prove just how supportive of women their voters are.
