Summary
LGBTQ Americans are deeply concerned about Donald Trump’s second term, citing his anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, policies, and ties to conservative groups like the Heritage Foundation.
His past actions and campaign ads targeting trans individuals have raised fears of eroding healthcare access, legal protections, and rights, especially for transgender people.
Trump’s alignment with the Project 2025 agenda, which promotes rolling back LGBTQ rights, heightens anxiety, despite his appointment of an openly gay treasury secretary.
Advocates warn of significant societal and legal repercussions.
And one of the many problems with Harris is she kept reaching right and changed approximately zero minds. She could have said “the economy” is the bank accounts of the rich and we all know it, it’s time to change that. But yeah very unlikely to hear that from a politician whose name isn’t Bernie Sanders.
The problem is to the voters “the economy” is the price of gas or eggs or whatever. In fact it was the self-reported number one issue in the election. So politicians just keep talking past the voters because they mean completely different things by “the economy”.
Yeah Biden and Harris’ (along with the right though they won’t admit it) version of “the economy is good” only applies to you if you’re earning your income via capital gains and not earning your income from wages.
Of course there’s an argument to be made that healthy companies mean healthy jobs, but these companies have tainted and perverted this so bad that average workers don’t really benefit from it at all.
