I'm neutral about Trump. I agree with some of his policies and strongly disagree with others.
But the trans movement jumped the shark. TQI+ has set back the progress made by women and LGB over the years. TQI+ has no similarity to LGB.

I know a couple cool people who are transgender. They are low key and aren't part of any "movement".

I do NOT consider trans-women to be actual women. I do NOT want them competing in women's sports or beauty pageants. They should NOT be allowed in women's-only facilities unless they have fully transitioned.
It should be illegal for schools to encourage children to question their birth gender and to allow drag queen story hour in schools and libraries.
"Gender affirmation" psychology is bullshit. People who think they may be trans should have access to psychological counseling, NOT affirmation.
It should be a crime to give anyone under 18 transitioning drugs and surgery.

So I agree with Trump that there are two genders - men and women - and that a person's biological sex should be the one listed on official documents.

The infamous, "I judge Trump on the merits" person? I don't believe you. XD

[Lliam]

@ladsin2, I judge people based on their actions. Is there any other rational way to judge someone?

[DrPepper12]

Somehow any advice that Trump gives as far as a relationship to another human being I find suspect...

Why would it ever be a good thing to pick on a minority of people who make no attempt in harming others and are just trying to live their own lives. He's just being a bully to them for no reason other than that he needed a boogeyman to scare his base into voting for him and sadly we have enough bigoted people in this world and in his cult that fell for it.

[Ladsin2]

Thanks for the response. Why do you think he's bullying rather than being forthright and direct? Presumably there's a difference right?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Because I honestly don't think he even slightly cares about them other than the votes they get him with his base when he spills his vitriol about them. If it played better to support them with his base, you best believe he would be cheering and encouraging their transitions. Thats what makes him a bully.

[Ladsin2]

To clarify, it's bullying if you are willing to praise or demean a person or group of persons based on political considerations. Is that right? What if black men started voting republican. Do you think democrats would call them race traitors or black white supremacists? If so would that be bullying as well?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Black men did start voting republican, especially in this last election and i wasn't a fan of Biden's comments either saying you "ain't black" in voting for Trump during their race. That's abusing your power to bully minorities.

It doesn't have to be based on political considerations though. It's abusing power to belittle or shame a weaker person or group of people to cause harm or discomfort. In this case, Trump is using his power to help mentally and physically torture trans individuals from living their lives and yes that includes teens.

I agree the trans crap needs to stop , being a woman is something that happens at birth and it should not be used as a costume by mentally ill men.

thanks for mho

[TraderJoe]

90% of people think l they shouldn't be in women's sports, but the woke disagree and will probably win.

[Ladsin2]

Why do you think they'll win?

[TraderJoe]

Because the left are a bunch of pussies. Thery are totally okay with killers crossing our borders illegally and killing children.

[Ladsin2]

Doesn't explain why they'd win. Do pussies generally succeed in life?

[TraderJoe]

They did under Joe Biden.

[zagor]

Why would anyone care what some ignorant asshole thinks of them?

[seeyounexttuesday]

Hey could you be more vague? Thanks.

[Ladsin2]

Perchance.

[Ladsin2]

Lol I guess you didn't see it, but he said men will never be women etc.

[seeyounexttuesday]

well yeah, he's right.

[exitseven]

I did not hear the comment so I cannot say.

[beefcakebradybatson]
