    So because the other guy’s a fascist, you’ll take the opportunity to throw trans people under the bus like you and all centrists have always wanted to do?

      I don’t think not talking about it is the same as throwing them under the bus. The fact of the matter is the Democratic party has already vowed to protect trans rights. Also, Fox News, and other media, has portrayed the trans issue in a misleading light and it’s the next big boogeyman. Them throwing away votes to assure people who already know who’s on their side that they’re on their side is stupid politics. Sure, it’d be great if we lived in a world where this calculation wasn’t needed, but we don’t.

        Like they did with undocumented immigrants.
