    And if there is a deliberate strategy to throw anything and everything at Trump's administration to see what sticks, I would think it is a direct response to the effectiveness of doing so against Obama and Clinton before. Still waiting for criminal charges regarding Benghazi, election fraud, birth certificate forgery, murder, etc.

    I am fine with whataboutisms as long as they can be applied both ways. It just seems that post about Clinton or Obama are frequently answered with whataboutism. It is either okay for both or neither.

    It's not okay, and I think time will show that these are not equivalents anyway

    It’s why many lifelong republicans are bailing.

    You are more optimistic than I. I just went with my fiance to wait for her to early vote (I already did). While I was waiting, I overheard an octogenarian complaining about the high turnout. Like it was a bad thing.

    I don’t know I would say I’m optimistic.

    Ah yes, the “respectable” Republicans that took a stand for “our values”. Their names read off like a murderers row Chamber of Commerce types hell bent on turning us into Brazil for the sake of cheap labor.

    I see people say "what has Trump done that directly impacts your life in a negative way" from time to time, and I just wanted to post this article that explains some of the things that(based on existing administration actions and leaked memos) will likely happen and will have a direct negative impact on my life and the lives of many of my friends

    I know this board leans pretty conservative, but I've seen (most of) yall be pretty logical and consistent in your support for LGBT rights despite that. I know transgender rights are the new hotness for the left vs right "culture war", but I would implore you to remember(regardless of which side you fall on) that these policy decisions will affect real people, many of who are already marginalized by society and in many areas are offered little to no legal protection for their identity as-is.

    The "grounded in science" bit is eugenics-like.
