But anyone who views the Democratic party as truly supportive of trans rights, certainly in any kind of national sense, is sorely mistaken.

It's ironic if we were to say this before the election, there would be a very different response. Now the ship is sinking so to speak, critique is more receptive.. just not when it counts.

For a split moment I figured the whole "weird" rhetoric would expand to actually describe how people are legitimately being discriminated against with legislation, but yeah just follow the laws.. even if they mean parental rights for rapists and fucking windows on school bathrooms. Never hoping for a political outcome again.
