I think the real question here is if they're running from them, then what are they running from exactly?
...and if they weren't allies before, why should we believe they are now?
- Its immoral to turn your back on the trans community. 2. Its electorally stupid to turn your back on the trans community. 3. In the general election, you should always vote for the democrat anyway. The amount of good things that happens in government is measured in how much control democrats have, and evil is measured in republican seats. If you have a senate with 42 good dems and 10 bad ones, that's a tough time, but if you have a senate with 42 good dems and 20 bad ones, you can get a lot of great stuff to happen. But most importantly of all, if you have 51 republicans in the senate, it will always be awful.
