This whole thing began after Sarah McBride of Delaware was elected as the first openly transgender member of Congress.
"What Nancy Mace and what Speaker Johnson are doing are endangering all women and girls. Because if you ask them what is your plan on how to enforce this, they won't come up with an answer," she said. "What this inevitably results in is women and girls who are primed with assault because people are gonna want to check their private parts suspecting who is trans, who is cis, who is doing what."
"The idea that Nancy Mace wants little girls and women to drop trow in front of who? An investigator, who would that be? Because she wants to suspect and point fingers at who she thinks is trans. It's disgusting. It is disgusting."
"And frankly, all it does is allow these Republicans to go around and bully any woman who isn't wearing a skirt because they think she might not look woman enough. People have a right to express themselves, to dress how they want, and to be who they are. And if a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect her genitals to use a bathroom. It's disgusting."
"They're doing this so Nancy Mace can make a buck, and send a text, and fundraise off an email. They're not doing this to protect people. They're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kinds, and everybody should reject it. It's gross."
That one is racking up numbers.
