For years rightwing politicians and pundits have repeatedly criticized the left for playing the race card and the woman card This new film turns the tables and takes dead aim at the rights own longstanding but rarely discussed deployment of whitemale identity politics in American presidential elections Ranging from Richard Nixons toughtalking lawandorder campaign in 1968 to Donald Trumps hypermacho revival of the same fearbased appeals in 2020 The Man Card shows how the right has mobilized dominant ideas about manhood and enacted a deliberate strategy to frame Democrats and liberals as soft brand the Republican Party as the party of real men and position conservatives as defenders of white male power and authority in the face of transformative demographic change and ongoing struggles for racial gender and sexual equality
