Suburban women, will you please like me? I saved your damn neighborhood, OK?” President Trump said.\n\nMr Ware told Sky News suburban women hold the key to the US election and many of them do not like 'President Trump's tone.'\n\n'The poll shows, nationally and in swing states, President Trump is losing with suburban women between 23 and 27 per cent, and there is no way he is getting them back,' he said.\n\n'Suburban women don't like him, they don't like his tone and they don't like what he is doing.\n\n'The real thing for suburban women, it's not just his tone and the way he speaks and what he says about women, it's really about COVID.\n\n'Because the burden of COVID is falling on the shoulders of women.'\n\n
