IIRC a quarter of the Republican ad spending was on that single ad, "The Democrats are for 'they/them', Trump is for YOU". It was that effective.

I don't care much who is right morally. America's culture wars are almost an irrelevance to me as a foreigner. I care because it's skewing American elections. Trump is about to pull out of the climate accord and it will be partly because of this. That is just a crazy situation. You guys need to turn down the temperature. On the Democrat side that means less moralizing and hectoring because it is very visibly driving the other side crazy. It's not worth it.

Ok, tell me how that's the Dems calling anyone who isn't straightforward with their pronouns a bigot. Oh, wait, it's an argument being made by the party of lies? Then why blame the Democrats?

Cool, I'll mentally keep you with the other people who think that: Trump supporter. Considering your other points I don't believe you aren't one, whether you live here or not, you sure as fuck act like one
