Reminder that Sarah McBride is the first out transgender woman elected to congress. The Republicans are specifically targeting her and future transgender representatives by banning them their gendered restrooms of choice. As always, cruelty is the point.

      What else would he be doing? Fixing the economy? Repairing infrastructure? Going home to spend an evening with his family? It’s not like America has bigger problems than specifically telling one junior congresswoman that she has to use a different restroom than she’d prefer.

      You say that as if the POTUS elect, soon to be President of the largest military force in human history; wouldn’t do/say the exact same things.
