The trans agenda has proved a tremendous millstone around the neck of the Democrat Party. Deservedly so! This evil ideology is one of the biggest reasons Democrats find themselves sinking in the political sea that is the American electorate. Currently, the Democrats are historically unpopular. As the New York Post put it last month, “Democrats have become so unpopular that more Americans believe that aliens are among us than agree with the Democratic Party.”
The Post piece continues,
Dems are now held in lower esteem than lawyers,
undertakers, and car salesmen.
Two punishing new polls released Sunday show that the
party has hit historic new lows in approval ratings nationwide — with just 27%
of Americans saying they like the job Democrats are doing, according to NBC News.
A CNN poll put favorability at 29% — the lowest rating in
the 33-year history of the survey; 54% have an unfavorable view.
Just a few days ago, a Newsweek headline
blared, “Democratic Leaders Get Worst Polling Result in Over Two Decades.”
This same Newsweek piece also noted that “confidence in congressional Republican leadership
is on the upswing and is double digits ahead of Democrats.” Additionally,
President Trump’s favorability
rating (as of this writing) is about 20 points higher than that of
Democrats.
Again, much of this is due to the fact that Democrats refuse
to acknowledge the plain, simple, and long-held truth on what is a male and
what is a female. As I’ve frequently noted, marriage—the
union of one man and one woman for life—and what
is a male or female are two of the oldest truths in the history of
humanity. About the only truth older than what is marriage is what
is a male and what is a female.
Thank God—for now, at least—many Americans still hold to
these truths and are aghast enough to keep at least some of the fools who deny
these fundamental truths from political power in this nation. In what was likely
the most effective ad (“Kamala
Harris is for they/them, Donald Trump’s for you.”) Donald Trump ran during
the 2024 race for U.S. President, Trump’s team highlighted Harris’s and the
Democrat’s extremism
on transgender issues.
A few Democrats—Bill
Maher being chief among them—have recognized how electorally damaging the
trans agenda has been to the Democrat Party. A few Democrats in elected office
seem willing to heed Maher’s warning. However, most Democrats have completely
embraced the trans agenda.
Democrat support for the wicked trans agenda was on full
display during the Biden administration. As Leor Sapir put
it at City Journal,
From hiding children’s gender transitions in schools
from their parents to letting boys compete in girls’ sports; from replacing
words like “woman” and “breastfeeding” with “uterus haver” and “chest-feeding”
to supporting sex “change” surgeries for children; from appointing a Supreme
Court justice who wouldn’t define “woman” because she is “not a biologist” to
diverting millions of federal dollars to researchers who suppress scientific
evidence that puberty blockers don’t work; it is hard to think of a single
transgender policy that the Biden administration did not support, directly or
indirectly…
Additionally, Democrat-controlled states are not backing
down from the trans agenda. I believe there is no going back for Democrats on
this issue. The Democrat Party has
fully embraced a post-truth agenda, and “transgenderism” is a cornerstone
of this agenda. Tragically, too many Americans are eager for the lies the left
has long sold on sex.
To reject “transgenderism” would be a retreat towards the
truth, and the Democrat Party cannot afford to do this. Once you start walking
towards the truth, other lies tend to get exposed, and the Democrat Party is built
on a mountain of lies. Thus, if the Democrat Party rejects the trans
agenda, the Party, as we now know it, will cease to exist. Something called the
“Democrat Party” might still exist, but it will be a shell of its former self.
Something new and even further from the truth would fill the
political space now occupied by the Democrats. Led by the likes of AOC and Lil’ Boss Hogg, this new
party would siphon tens-of-millions of voters from the Democrat Party. This
would shake-up the political landscape in America like nothing before.
Democrats simply cannot allow this to happen, thus they are
stuck with the trans agenda and whatever other perversions that lie ahead as
they continue to march away from the truth.
