Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet.
Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well.
Horrific.
Where did I say that? He’s absolutely not DSA and his anti-trans rhetoric is terrible.
Then why on earth would you think this guy, who is against everything the DSA stands for, would increase the DSA’s power?
Do you understand how majority vs minority parties and leadership work in Congress? As much of an asshole as this guy is, he’s STILL better than a Republican in the same position.
What does that have to do with your assertion that electing this person will increase the DSA power?
Ok, what is your suggestion in this instance? You seem to think this is a black and white issue, so what would you do here?
No. That doesn’t sound like an answer to the question either. Is this a bot account or something?
You seem to be intentionally obtuse. Break it down for us, you say don’t vote for Turek, are you saying to vote for Hinson?
Nope. Still not answering how electing this guy empowers the DSA. How odd. This bot must be broken.
Ok, I’ll answer and see if you can answer too.
The more seats the Democrats hold across Congress, the better off the entire country will be. There are still 2 more years of a Trump presidency, and if you think this is bad, just watch what would happen if the Republicans hold on to the majority in Congress.
DSA candidates, at various levels of elected positions nationwide, have shown great surges in popularity. Simply put, more Democrats in Congress, the more options open up to oppose the GOP regressive agenda.
Now it’s your turn to answer. Who are you advocating for in this race?
