Democratic Retreat on Transgenderism Support
Democratic leaders are retracting support for Rep. Sarah McBride's transgender priorities amid backlash, facing challenges in swing districts. The issue arose when Rep. Nancy Mace requested rules to keep McBride out of women's private spaces in Congress. The collapse in support follows Trump's successful exploitation of Democratic backing for transgender rights. Polls indicate growing unpopularity of transgender ideology outside progressive circles. The dispute highlights the Republican approach to transgender issues and the Democrats' dilemma in navigating the transgender agenda post-election.
