Once again: If Dems do well in November, absolutely everyone should interpret it as a definitive statement that the US electorate rejected a disgusting smear campaign against trans people.
While watching the ALDS just caught an attack ad against Sherrod Brown on… transgender surgery for kids. It wasn’t very effective and the framing was odd. If that’s the best attack ad angles then the GOP is cooked in Ohio.
