    Like, it’s sad because they are so close to getting the point.

    • Say yes to positive economic policy that positively affects everyone and is very popular
    • Say no to literal penis inspection day, which negatively impacts everyone and is deeply unpopular

    I desperately hope there can be meaningful and constructive backlash against this kind of nonsense.

      It’s not deeply unpopular. It’s deeply unpopular in my circles, and probably yours, but the country just gave the popular vote to a republican for the first time in 20 years.

        You are correct that Trump is popular!

        You would not be correct to assume that anti-trans legislation is popular.

        It’s important to remember the air gap between the policies people support and the candidates they vote for. People generally indicate discomfort with overregulation of such a tiny minority, and this is what I mean when I said “deeply unpopular.”
