Reminder that Sarah McBride is the first out transgender woman elected to congress. The Republicans are specifically targeting her and future transgender representatives by banning them their gendered restrooms of choice. As always, cruelty is the point.

    How long before they straight up expel her? Or before someone gets violent with her on the House floor?

    Wonder which will happen first.

        I had to look her up again to see which party she’s in. I hope she never makes a statement like this again. She’s going to need more backbone.

            I meant because it sounds like she’s sucking up to Johnson. I know she isn’t though. She’s going “the high road”

              So would you rather see her single handedly(bc democrats have no backbone) fight a republican government that she guaranteed to not achieve anything against except virtue signalling?

              Shes recognises that that is a fight she cant win right now. So she wants to do her job and do what she can for her consituents instead of wasting the next four years getting absolutely nothing done.
