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.
She’s not even trans, btw.
Actually worse she made it clear she was not supporting trans in anyway. Actually the opposite. So not supporting trans is a slap in face and you get called slurs anyway. So why not support them?
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.
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.
