Flailing Trump Goes After Trans People In Attempt to Pass ‘SAVE’ Act
On Trump threatening legislative blockade until its passage: “[he] has never been more out of touch”
WASHINGTON — While the illegal war in the Middle East wages on, gas prices rise, and health care costs continue to soar, President Trump has made it clear his “No. 1 priority" is to pass the “SAVE America Act”--MAGA’s extreme anti-voting rights bill–with demands that it include anti-trans provisions. He even threatened not to sign any bill until Congress sends this legislation to his desk. In response, the following statement may be attributed to Laurel Powell, Director of Communications at the Human Rights Campaign:
“Donald Trump is flailing and has never been more out of touch with what the American public wants or needs. His anti-democratic bill threatens the right to vote for millions of people who have done nothing more controversial than changing their name. Now, as gas prices rise, job losses roll in, and he prosecutes an illegal war in the Middle East, Donald Trump is trying to tack on attacks on trans people in the mistaken belief that it will make the rest of it any less rotten. As voters proved in November, they are seeing through these anti-equality attacks that do nothing to lower prices, provide health care, or protect our families. It’s giving weak and desperate.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:uzpesvkkhyjnnor3w2gn2vml/bafkreifxdlfqim4jugzrtlnrdavtoa6sm5ubbjslc55hhdyxebb2symh4y)
