    Oh man, that was hard to read. The way he justifies his position shows he completely misunderstands the issue, yet is willing to fuck with real people’s lives to maybe win a few extra theoretical votes. Despicable. Using his completely valid experiences in a wheelchair to show he understands what it’s like to be bullied, and saying “No Iowan should face discrimination”, but then turning around and spelling out exactly how he wants to discriminate against trans people, is just insane. It’s almost too hypocritical for me to believe. Almost. It’s a shocking lack of empathy.

    Assholes like him are a big part of the reason we can’t have nice things. He’d rather screw people over and let the Rs win instead of just a. Doing the right thing, and b. Letting a few bigots not vote for him.

    Oh shit, Iowa Democrats are supporting anti-transgender legislation? As a voter in Michigan I better vote for the Republican so those Democrats know I support trans rights. Thanks for sharing!
