The more we have a ideological debate about whether or not it’s moral or ethical to recognize the existence of trans people, the more we’re going to embolden the Trump administration and other state-level government actors to act to take away our rights.

Surprised? Don’t be. Because Trump’s base and his idol, Putin hates and targets gay and transgender CITIZENS.
Chalk up another win for Pence, Religious Right, Nazis and Republicans because Trump and the Republican Congress were allowed to carryout these incremental fascist policies without a fight:
- Aligning with dictators such as Putin and Mohammed bin Salman
- Don’t ask. Don’t tell.
- Muslim Ban
- DACA
- Targeting black athletes #TakeAKnee
- Zero Tolerance - Family Separation #ICEtapo
- Deportation of CITIZENS
- War on Women #Patriarchy #Abortion #Kavanaugh
- Who’s next?
Prove that you care by voting. Vote out Republicans in 2018, 2020 and beyond until there are no more.
