      They don’t care. They’re trying to indicate how unwelcome Sarah McBride, the first trans woman elected to Congress, is.

      See, that’s not a bug, that’s a feature. When that happens, the more bigoted of the population will scream about men in the women’s restrooms since that is exactly the situation they’ve forced people into, then use that as further justification for more bathroom bills. It’s a self-perpetuating cycle of discrimination against a minority group and the conservatives couldn’t be happier about it.
