Trump is using anti-trans rhetoric to distract from his waffling on abortion, experts say

Summary

Nutrition label

71% Informative

Former President Donald Trump has repeatedly made baseless claims that schools are secretly performing gender-affirming surgeries on children.

The claims are divorced from reality: Schools are not involved in the medical decisions that families of trans youth make.

Experts see his outlandish anti-trans comments as an attempt to shore up support after alienating parts of his base with confusing stances on restricting abortion access.

Sixty percent of Americans oppose the right of transgender minors to access gender-affirming care, but 54 percent do not support lawmakers banning or restricting such care, including half of Republicans .

At Tuesday ’s debate, Trump brought up transgender people only once; that comment marked the only moment that LGBTQ+ issues were mentioned on stage by either candidate.
