Donald Trump says transgender people will "end" if GOP keeps Congress in midterms

Donald Trump said in an interview yesterday that voters should treat the 2026 midterms as if he is on the ballot, while bringing up how he is going to make "transgender... end."

"I think we're gonna do very well," Trump said. "I'm gonna take a lot of time, and I'm going to help people get elected, if I can."

Trump's second administration has taken a harder line against transgender people's rights than his first administration did, with him immediately ordering all federal agencies to stop acknowledging that trans people exist on his first day in office. He also ordered the military to kick trans service members out, issued an executive order to ban trans kids from participating in school sports as their gender, and started using all the investigative offices under his control to intimidate hospitals, school districts, and other institutions into rolling back trans rights and care.

His comments about ending transgender people echo comments he made in December 2024 at AmericaFest – after the 2024 elections but before his inauguration – where he said: "With the stroke of my pen on day one, we're going to stop the transgender lunacy."

While the right often says that their issues with trans people are sports and what kids are taught in school, they sometimes admit that they simply have a problem with trans people existing at all.

A bit off-topic perhaps, Mod can move this if they so like, but do you girls and guys living in the US believe that DT's anti-trans agenda is bringing in more votes than it loses?
All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players.
To thine own self be true.

Integration ongoing. I'll cross the transition bridge when I get to it.

I can't really answer that but Australia's version of Orange is starting down the same path.

There is a following in the religious right as well as neo nazis.

In our case this movement is just gaining traction with a groundswell of support who blame our government for everything wrong in the whole world.

Even the way Orange's mistakes has increased the costs of most things
And then one day you stop to find,
10 years have got behind you,
no one told you when to run,
you missed the starting gun

I try to be a voice of reason, and avoid being hypocritical. We can make fun of the president for using orange makeup, but there are literally hundreds of posts on this site advising people to use orange concealer to hide beard shadow. Just saying.

No, not at all.

He believes that it will, and is prepared to challenge the election results when he loses. He does not live in reality, and his supporters seem to accept, if not encourage, his delusions.

He made campaign promises to bring down prices, to stop war, to end transgender "lunacy", to deport illegal immigrants, and to reduce crime.

He claims to have ended 8 wars, though he cannot point to any that actually ended by his hand. He started a war with Iran, which caused prices to go up, not down. His deportation policies have been challenged in court many times and are generally viewed as extremely unpopular. His activating the National Guard troops to reduce crime has not actually reduced crime, and people are not happy seeing soldiers with weapons standing around in their neighborhoods.

So, having failed on his campaign promises, he continues to focus on unpopular vanity projects like the White House ballroom, the Trump Arch, and the Reflecting Pool debacle, which have also been challenged and paused in court. The signs of the times are becoming clear to him, with ever-lower approval ratings, that he is losing power.

Members of his own party are questioning and even leaving. So what does that leave? Change the rules concerning mail-in ballots for elections, which are very popular in Democratic states, and try to drum up votes by returning to attacking transgender people. He has nothing else.

Quote from: Devlyn on Yesterday at 09:12:05 AMYou forgot the Trump class dreadnought. 😂

Oh yes. And putting his name on everything he can, so it is nearly impossible to erase him.

Meanwhile, he and his family are making billions of dollars on some very questionable deals.

But that is beside the point. He has already tried to associate LGBTQ organizations with domestic terrorists and link them to Antifa, which is not an organization.

With his private Security Police (ICE), if he gets elected, I fear that some of our activist and "influencer" allies will be disappeared to some third-world country for no reason. He has already deported several U.S. citizens, Naturalized citizens, and children here for healthcare.

This ship is piloted by a madman.

Does it ever make you think of the film "Civil War" 🤣

It is a mad world we live in today. It is astonishing how quickly everything has turned to crap the world over.

I love that movie, especially the final scene when he finally gets a quote from the President.
