Democrats seem to think that the issue — which carries life-or-death stakes — is too divisive to address.

    I believe that the popular vote isn’t sufficient to win, as it wasn’t when Clinton lost with the popular vote.

    I believe Democrats won’t protect trans rights, either.

    You’ve chosen to be dishonest as fuck about my positions.

      She didn’t get the popular vote where it mattered, popular vote is still what is needed

      So you think it’s just as likely they won’t protect trans right as it is likely the Republicans won’t? Because that was the question.

      Looking at Democrat’s States vs Republican States it’s pretty clear you’re wrong about that second part.

        Trump won without it.

        So you think it’s just as likely they won’t protect trans right as it is likely the Republicans won’t?

        I don’t trust either of them at all on this issue. I think they’re just itching to throw another vulnerable minority under the bus like they did with the undocumented immigrants you’re using Republican talking points about.

          Again, she didn’t get the popular vote WHERE IT MATTERED, first past the post still requires popular vote, just not at a national level.

          Republicans do bad thing

          Democrats try but fail to completely stop it

          “Why did Democrats do this bad thing??” - Ensign_Crab

          Every time without fail, it’s a classic

            How does adopting Republican border policy count as trying and failing to stop Republican policy?

            Oh wait, you don’t care. You’re just happy they moved to the right.

                If they nominated Trump, you’d expect everyone to believe that he was the most progressive candidate ever.
