President Donald Trump mocked transgender people in front of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, whose child identifies as nonbinary, during an Oval Office meeting in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday that was intended to focus on trade relations but instead became a showcase of Trump’s familiar culture war politics.
The meeting, held in the presence of reporters, aimed to emphasize renewed cooperation between the two countries, which remain deeply economically intertwined. But as The Independent reported, it “devolved into a political rally disguised as a routine press availability.” Trump repeatedly veered off topic to attack Democrats, the media, and transgender people, boasting that under his leadership, “We have strong borders. We have no men in women’s sports. We’re not going to take your child away and change the sex of your child.”
I’m with you. The whole strategic voting thing… Even I’ve been victim of it and it was no more obvious than in the last election.
A lot of people voted liberal because they wanted to shut out the conservatives, and liberal votes had the best chance of doing that.
The problem is organization and agreement.
If we all agree to drop the strategic voting and just go with who we actually want, for a single election, I’m sure things would massively change. The trick is, getting everyone to agree on anything.
