It all depends on what media you consume. If you're on Fox, Daily Wire and X then you will think transgender people are everywhere because they tell you it is.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

He got it right, the Universe has no gender, and has all genders, he just can't accept reality
Merely days ago, this same man said everything is computer. Which is it Don?
Everything's transgender computer
Literally nothing is. There are so little trans people in this country you could fit them all in an averaged sized gymnasium with plenty of leg room. More cis people choose self identifying names than trans do. This whole fucken bullshit is just bigotry and scapegoating so the elite can continue their 50 year old grift without having to adjust anything at all. Its controlling for the sake of controlling.
You are massively underestimating the trans population. It's estimated to be about .5% of the population, about 1 in 200 people. That's over a million in the US alone.
It's more like 1%
Yeah its a bit of a hyperbole but I'm trying to high light just how little trans people there actually are. For instance, there are far more witnesses to mass shootings than there are trans people.
I'm sure you can fit a million people in a gymnasium if you try hard enough.
But then you lose the leg room. And I am fairly tall.
But wait...I thought everything is computer
Have you seen who's writing code these days? Everything is computer, computer is transgender, ergo everything is transgender.
The reality is that he's is just failing to grasp what "gender is a spectrum" means.
If everything is transgender then that means trump is trans, so congratulations on coming out. Do you go by Daphne now?
The amount of attention put on such a tiny fragment of society is astounding. If everything is transgender, try getting a fucking hobby. Oh wait you already spend an equal amount of time golfing on my dime while saying you're saving me money...
Every time TFG goes golfing it costs you a quarter or so.
Did he just find out cars have transmissions?
maybe he means Transparent - Like the difference between what he says and what he means
Huh. Is HE transgender? Has he been looking at an unusually significant amount of trans porn lately? I don’t get it. It seems to be on his mind an awful lot.
These guys do project a lot.
They do indeed.
Mebbies he means transgenic?
Trump is the sort of person who doesn't want schools teaching about homophones because he has no idea what homophones are
Well, duh homie.
Through executive order, your dumbass turned us all into women.
I think this was the plot of something I read ages ago.
I think it was a japanese comic of some sort.
Trump's sudden obsession with transgender issue came out of nowhere but I have a theory. I think that he tried to sexually assault a woman during the campaign and when he grabbed her crotch he got a handful of penis.
It didn’t come out of nowhere and it isn’t surprising. It’s part of the fascist playbook to demonize that which they cannot subordinate to their cult of machismo and their fairytale of a golden past.
Nah he just realized they're a great target to attract a big crowd of bigots behind him. Once they've been dealt with he'll move on to another group to bully, maybe the rest of the LGBTQ crowd.
Then on to women!
OMG, that's literately the subplot of Too Wong Foo. A cop attempted to sexual assault one of the protagonists, who was a drag queen, and he goes on a search to arrest them after they fought back.
Literally Wesley Snipes' best movie, and one of John Leguizamo's best works.
As for Patrick Swayze, gone too soon, fuck cancer, man.
Literally one of the best movies of all time.
I used to watch it soo many times.
