Some politicians are so fearful of former President Donald Trump retaking the White House that “they don’t really want to tell the full truth,” West said. “[Biden has] created the best economy that we can get. Is this the best that we can get? You don’t tell that lie to the people just for Biden to win,” West said in a clip played on CNN Sunday.

        I - what? Oh wow you are quite right that Biden has done fuck all over this ‘states rights’ trans issue. But of course even nothing is better than the imminent danger that the GOP has planned.

          Biden and Co inaction, and his lifetime of pushing for states rights has resulted in where we are right now.

          How long ago did the bathroom discussions start? And when was the last federal politician that even addressed the issue? When has someone thats attacked an individual or group of people in the trans community been convicted under the Matthew Shepard And James Byrd, Jr Act? They don’t care about trans, or gay, or minorities other than our ability to keep them in power, to do nothing.

          They did the same thing with women’s reproductive rights, fucked around for 50 years and kept promising to make it law until SCOTUS said shit or get off the pot. They raised millions keeping liberals in fear over what republicans might do if we dont give money and keep them in power.

          I have no clue how old you are, but Ive been of voting age and came out in the mid 80s and its been the same song and dance every two years, decades have gone by and that progress they keep promising is always just out of reach.

          They don’t care.
