8 Democrats Help Pass GOP Bill Forcing Teachers To Out Transgender Students - Lemmy.World

Henry Cuellar, Donald Davis, Cleo Fields, Laura Gillen, Vicente Gonzalez, Marcy Kaptur, Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, and Eugene Vindman

All but Fields represent swing districts, with Cuellar, Davis, Gonzalez, Kaptur and Gluesenkamp Perez considered particularly vulnerable in November’s election. (Fields’ safely Democratic district is likely to be eliminated by GOP gerrymandering, though he could choose to run for reelection in a far more conservative seat.) Republicans, who have seen the public turn against them on major issues like inflation and immigration, continue to believe they have an advantage on transgender issues ― particularly when it relates to how they are handled in schools and in kids’ sports. All of the vulnerable Democrats are likely to face attack ads on transgender issues in the fall.

The curse of the big tent. You accept conservative democrats who will break from the party sometimes or get a conservative Republican who will be a rubber stamp for Trump on everything.

I wish American politics were different, but here we are. If you want to change things then organize with your community, go down to your local Democratic party headquarters, and coopt their infrastructure from the ground up.

Or tell people to vote 3rd party (Any third party, it doesn’t matter!) and then whine online that suppressing votes for Democrats didn’t fix things, I can’t tell you what to do.

The curse of the big tent.

Your tent should try to welcome the left instead of fight them to impress the fascists you adore.

Oh shit, it’s ensign crab. I was afraid you’d killed yourself since you’re so upset about genocide [as long as being upset about the genocide is politically helpful to Donald Trump]. Glad you managed to soldier on!

And unfortunately yes, that does mean in some districts you can’t expect to support trans rights and win. Reality sucks. Its unfortunate you don’t have any solutions other than shitty devise commentary and voter suppression in leftist spaces.

Got under your skin by saying that your only policy is bad, huh?

You will abandon any constituency not named netanyahu.

You must be so sad about all these mean Democrats bullying you, poor baby 😪🤧🤢

You keep up the [faux] outrage and keep on fighting [to keep leftists apathetic and disengaged]

You must be so sad about all these mean Democrats bullying you

I’m sad that democrats can’t seem to stop supporting genocide and bigotry.
