President Donald Trump on Monday used an anti-transgender slur to attack Democratic South Carolina Senate nominee Dr. Annie Andrews, as he tries to push his handpicked GOP candidate, Sen. Darline Graham, over the finish line in the midterm election.
“Annie ‘Trannie’ Andrews is running against our wonderful Darline Graham for the Senate in South Carolina,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. He used a version of the slur three times in the post.
Andrews did not reference Trump’s comments in a statement responding to his post, instead saying, “I’m in this race to fight for my patients, my three kids, and South Carolina.”
“And I’m going to work with anyone to put South Carolina first, because lowering costs and making life better for families across our state is going to take all of us working together. If you care more about your bills than the politics in Washington, this campaign is for you,” she said.
Right in his fuckin pedophile face
She’s not even trans, btw.
As a trans person who’s tired of being argued about and used as a tool to curry favor and fear, but never spoken to directly in political messaging,
sigh
oh well YOU PEOPLE just want HUMAN RIGHTS for some reason and think you have a RIGHT to participate in the political system because, well, you do.
:)
Hopefully people will start to realize that abandoning vulnerable people won’t stop fascist assholes from demonizing you anyway. Their criticisms are in bad faith, so there’s no way to appease them.
Jesus, is South Carolina in play?
If I was a betting man I’d go on Kalshi and drop money on any democrat within 15 points in the polls. My instinct says the polling right now is having the inverse problem of the 2016 polling. The trump voters were very difficult to poll and hard to weigh correctly. The same is happening, but for ex Trump voters. And gen Z is significantly harder to poll than previous generations.
The polls are starting to respond to this. But I still think they are underestimating how many “red blooded Americans” are looking to change that to DSA red because of the gas prices.
The last time gas was this bad was when Carter was blown out and Reagan won in a historic landslide. There is power in people hating Trump. But the power of an unaffordable life is significantly more important. This is going to be a fucking Tsunami.
It’s going to be so extreme that my worry is this will be “too big to not rig”. When Trump starts saying the results are all fake.
Duh. How dum. Even as the athiest person I know, even I know if you want an answer from Jesus you gotta pray or something.
