Is anyone else surprised by the GOP senators who oppose Chump's trans ban ?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Chuck Grassley

John McCain

Lindsey Graham

Joni Ernst

Orrin Hatch - "“I don’t think we should be discriminating against anyone. Transgender people are people, and deserve the best we can do for them."


Dr. King said the "The arc of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice." The forces of reaction can bray all they want but we are winning the battle for hearts and minds.

1. I am by Hatch and Ernst

Ernst is literally insane and mean imo.

I was surprised by how kind Future President Hatch's statement was. THAT is what surprised me so much. Especially the part you edited out, where he said transgendered folks are born that way.

2. hatch surprised me.

he said outright and with emotion that transgender people did not choose and were born that way. They deserve the best we can do for them. I noticed him wiping his eye when saying it. I wonder if he has a close relative who is lgbt and it got to him.

3. Joni Earnst has experience with sex organ surgery so she is not a surprise

[Stinky The Clown]

5. Please elaborate on that statement

[Cicada]

6. She ran ads bragging about her pig castration experience

Inflicting pain is a desirable trait among Republicans. So her ads were a big winner in Iowa.

The knives are coming out. He's fucking toast
