How awful. She nouns 'transgender,' switches to using a slur (if you self-apply it then I entirely accept that though), and then invalidates gender by assuming it'd make Obama gay. What a perfect combination. Most worryingly, I'd argue this quite probably has racist connotations too since my limited knowledge of history suggests the womanhood of black women has long been denigrated by white or white-passing people, to use a bigoted understanding of what it means to be transgender to do that is vile. I'm afraid I don't tend to lower my expectations because somebody is old since that I think that insults the elderly people I know that are willing to adapt to the needs of others via empathy, there's no excuse for being a rigid conservative.
