The premise, the Trump is of low character based on a dirty joke

It's not about telling dirty jokes. It's surely not about being prudish. It's about the disrespect behind them. Women are people, too, entitled to a modicum of human dignity. Decent people accord that. Those who don't are, at best, low class.

Both Trump and his VP choice are contemptuous of women and their agency. For Trump, women are playthings. For Vance they are barefoot/pregnant/kitchen. Some women play it--they make a living on having pretty little heads. Good for them if it works for them. Others submit to being used and battered. The rest of us can tell the decent guys from the pigs and are repelled by the latter.

It's not just women, at least with Trump. I don't know enough about Vance yet to know if it's just women but for Trump everyone, if not a strongman bro, is either a sycophant or a potential target. Neither of them is respected.
