Dems won, that's good. They have control of the senate which they haven't had for a while.
So here's my damper, there was anti-trans legislation passed in blue states and there was an increasing rise of anti-trans rhetoric within the Democrat candidates. I do not want the establishment Dems and their think tanks to get the take away that they won by throwing trans people under the bus.
I'm still going to be critical of Dems, they have a lot to prove and should be spending these next couple months in meetings on how they deal with the fact Trump will veto everything they do. They will have to find a way to circumvent that veto pen or persecute Trump to the fullest extent possible as well as his regime.
I hate saying this but imma be honest with you. They absolutely won because they abandoned trans rights as a talking point. You have no idea how many peoples single issue with not voting democrats was gender affirming care. They hate it and will tell you in the same breath that circumcision is ok. The only reason so many republicans flipped was because of how bad the economy is performing.
I’m not saying to abandon trans rights but I think I speak for the majority when I say that running on policy that affects 1% of the population and angers 50% of the population is stupid. Instead of phrasing it to help trans people, we should focus on expanding healthcare access to ALL citizens. Not just trans people.
If the candidate can't explain how trans Healthcare is part of Healthcare for all, especially women, then that is a skill issue. Al Sayed practically dog walked them on Fox News over this issue and won big
You and I both know it doesn’t matter what you say. All they have to hear is the word trans and they won’t vote for it.
If they aren't able to hear past the words trans then they aren't listening to the politician no matter what they say.
