    The ad is the second one from a Democratic candidate in a swing state responding to an onslaught of anti-trans advertising.

    I love in Ohio and all repub ads only talk about illegal immigrants and trans people. That’s all they have, with a sprinkling of late term partial birth abortions.

      I am frankly shocked that the trans stuff apparently works, well enough to be a main thrust of an ad campaign. Like I fully get there’s a subset of Americans who are not comfortable with the concept, dislike trans people, think it’s immoral or whatever. But it’s such a big deal to you that we need a particular political party in charge so they can ban stuff? I just can’t relate to that. But it’s common enough that they run these ads, it’s either firing up true believers or actually converting people. Somehow.
