    Yeah, and he shot Kirk down and ignored all the other idiotic shit, and the only common ground he found was…this. He didn’t even say he was against it ffs, just that it was unfair. Immediately everyone started up the “HE’S ANTI-TRANS” flagpole and refused to come back down. It’s insane.

          Lol, many of us saw this coming when you first posted here. We already know your opinion on the matter and asking us to think more on it just makes you look… less flattering.

      It’s not unfair for trans women to play in sports though! His answer is what I expect from someone who hasn’t done their homework on the topic, which would be strange for a potential presidential candidate. I read this not as ignorance, but as a political calculation.
