The queer rights organization issued a new report that demonstrates how Joe Biden’s policies are exponentially better than Donald Trump’s for LGBTQ+ people.
I think you may be confusing the actions of a Republican Congress with those of Joe Biden’s cabinet. The American political apparatus has many levers, and just because you’re at the top doesn’t mean you control the whole thing.
No, I’m mentioning there are more things the Biden’s cabinet and the rest of his administration could be doing to push back on state level Republicans (mainly legislatures and AGs), to demonstrate my real point - the last four years have been fucking awful for the LGBTQ community, and seeing Biden supporters here pat themselves on the back for how it’s gone frustrates me (and probably a lot of other people we want to vote for the Democratic party’s candidates in the fall) a lot.
I think it would be a lot better politics for people who want (like I do) to see Republicans lose elections to forget the victory laps and focus more on (to paraphrase Bill Clinton) feeling the pain of their voters and telling us what you are going to do going forward instead.
