Donald Trump has rallied in the polls.
He is now the betting favorite to win the 2024 Presidential race.
And Fox News just broke the details of one late endorsement for Donald Trump that no one could have predicted.
Magazine endorses Trump
Donald Trump had a steady lead over Joe Biden going into the Presidential debate on June 27.
Biden needed a good performance to reverse his fortune.
Instead, Biden turned in the worst Presidential debate performance of all time.
It was so bad that Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and other Democrat Party bosses orchestrated a coup to replace Biden.
Vice President Kamala Harris parachuted into the 2024 race, and surged to a lead.
However, Harris’ edge has essentially evaporated, and Trump’s chances are looking really good.
It’s clear that he has momentum because he is picking up unexpected endorsements.
Back in 2016 and 2020, it was borderline career suicide to be associated with Trump outside of right-wing circles.
But that stigma has been broken.
And now Maxim magazine is endorsing Trump for President.

The magazine industry, even men’s magazines, skews heavily toward the Left.
But the media environment has changed.
Publicly supporting Trump is no longer tantamount to a death sentence, save for the most left-wing enclaves like academia or Hollywood.
Fox News reported that “Maxim, launched in 1998 by Felix Dennis, describes itself as ‘catering to the modern man with content that promises to seduce, entertain and continuously surprise readers.’ At its peak in the early 2000s, Maxim‘s subscription circulation reached over 2.5 million readers. It is currently owned by American company Biglari Holdings. Maxim‘s current editor-in-chief is Sardar Biglari.”
Democrats pushing male voters away
Maxim supporting Trump is indicative of a growing gender divide in the electorate.
As radical feminism has become a core tenet of the Left, more young men are gravitating to the Right.
It’s easy to see why when Democrats promote messaging that says men are “toxic.”
Meanwhile, Second Gentlemen Doug Emhoff is being trotted around by the Harris campaign despite two separate scandals involving women.
Fox News added that “during Maxim‘s peak, competitors like GQ tailored their content to younger audiences. It has since changed hands several times, with founder Felix Dennis first selling the magazine for $250 million. Maxim is currently mainly a digital publication, with bi-monthly print copies for subscribers. Maxim‘s ‘Hot 100’ was released around two weeks ago and features names like Sydney Sweeney and Elizabeth Hurley.”
One of the top comments from Maxim’s Twitter post read: “And you just lost zero fans. Probably gained some.”
That is probably true.
The Right is not even particularly making a targeted appeal to young men.
They just don’t have contempt for them or masculinity in general like so many on the Left do.
For example, Maxim features Hollywood bombshell Sydney Sweeney while several left-wing outlets have demonized her, not for her politics, but because some conservatives like her.
If the Left is going to be that reactionary, their performance with men is going to sink even lower.
