Pregnant trans dissed on Morning Joe

"I keep thinking that Joe and Mika and Willie are reasonable tolerant,
hip people-- and then I see this morning's show, where the pregnant
trans man's appearance on Oprah is used as grounds to cite this as
"one of the reasons why 81% of Americans feel the country is headed in
the wrong direction" (Joe); and "disgusting" (Mika) (!). Maybe by now,
I shouldn't be surprised by Joe and Mika showing astoundingly little
empathy or compassion for our community, but it still gave me a
morning "jolt," especially on a day when Martin Luther King's legacy
was a major topic."
