https://www.npr.org/2024/10/19/g-s1-28932/donald-trump-transgender-ads-kamala-harris

The Trump campaign has recently dropped at least $17 million on ads highlighting Vice President Harris' support during her 2019 presidential campaign for access to gender-affirming medical treatment for transgender people.

It's part of a broader Republican strategy casting the Democratic Party as taking transgender rights to extremes.

According to data compiled by AdImpact for NPR, these ads have aired more than 30,000 times, including in the key swing states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The campaign has placed a particular focus on NFL and college football broadcast audiences.


Voters consistently say issues like the economy and reproductive rights are their top concerns in this election. But in the closing weeks of the campaign, Republican ads focusing on transgender rights are dominating airwaves all over the country.

Consider the ad below from former President Donald Trump. If you've seen a Trump campaign ad lately, there's a good chance it's this one:

"I do think it's just emphasizing that sort of cultural divide that we do see in sport," said Jessica Taylor, a nonpartisan election analyst with the Cook Political Report. Taylor said the issue can appeal to men and swing suburban women, and polling backs that up.

Polling from the Marist Center for Sports Communication in 2022 found that 61% of Americans say transgender athletes should only be allowed to "play on teams that match their birth gender."

In extremely tight races where small shifts matter, divisive social issues can move the needle.

"If it moves a small sect of voters, that could still be key," Taylor said.

>Anti-trans rhetoric is also being used down-ticket

Republicans are making similar bets in the House and Senate races that help determine control of the next Congress.
>>
The Senate Leadership Fund, a super PAC affiliated with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, is bombarding Ohio with at least $15 million in ads attacking incumbent Sen. Sherrod Brown, a Democrat, on these very issues.

Brown responded with an ad of his own, calling the claims he voted to allow "biological men" in women's sports leagues a lie.

"The truth is in Ohio, this has already been banned and Sherrod Brown agrees with Gov. DeWine," the ad said. "These decisions should be made by local sports leagues, not politicians."

Trans-related ads are also targeting Democrats in at least eight competitive House races.

Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign, which advocates for LGBTQ rights, said that this slate of ads isn't anything new.

"When MAGA extremists are under attack and feeling like they're not going to win, they go to this old playbook of trying to sow fear and transphobia in our communities," Robinson said.

As for how Harris is responding to the ads, her campaign pointed NPR to comments spokesman Michael Tyler made last month on Fox News, where he said these issues are "not what she's proposing or running on."

Robinson is unbothered by the lack of Democratic response on the air.

"I'm not looking for them to kind of engage in the fearmongering," she said. "I'm looking for them to show that they're candidates that can pull this country together and that won't use divisiveness as a political tactic."

These ads are expected to remain on the air until Election Day.

Half of the Ted Cruz ads I see about trans sports athletes. I guess the october surprise is culture wars.
>>
>>1354572
Not surprising. Your average conservative has been brainwashed into thinking like 30% of the country is trans despite it being less than 1% and that high schools are full of trans athletes despite the total number of them who even petition to participate in women's sports being like 30-40 nationwide. Seeing as how Trump only has "concepts of policy" and has no platform whatsoever other than tariffs and using the military to create giant immigrant detainment camps, culture war is the only thing they can reliably bank on.

"Trans" and "drag queens" are code words for anyone who doesn't look like us and vote like us. It has no basis in reality for the general population. A handful for RWNJs and their media create this to keep everyday people hating each other for no reason.

>GOP frontrunner Donald Trump said he would allow transgender icon Caitlyn Jenner to use whatever bathroom she wants in his buildings. Yes, that Donald Trump.
>In an interview with NBC’s “Today Show,” Trump was asked by host Matt Lauer about his position on a so-called “bathroom bill” recently passed in North Carolina, which prevents transgender people from using the bathroom of their identified gender. Lauer pressed Trump by asking, “If Caitlyn Jenner were to walk into Trump Tower and wanted to use the bathroom, you would be fine with her using any bathroom she chooses?”
>Trump replied by saying, “that is correct.” He also went on to critique proposals for separate transgender bathrooms, calling them “discriminatory” and “unbelievably expensive for businesses.”

You say that, yet Republicans have lost literally every major election since 2016. They lost the presidency in 2020 despite being the incumbent, lost the house and senate in 2018, lost two massive runoff elections in Georgia, completely tanked the midterms in 2020 that they were favored to win the house and senate back in by huge margins and Trump, their alleged arena filling God savior, has never had above a 50% approval rating. All Republicans have done for the past decade is lost bigly.

>>1354801
Republicans have no allegiance to the constitution or rule of law. For example, notice all of the Republicans cheering on the charges that NYC filed against Eric Adams, the democrat mayor, yet in the same breath they will tell you that all NYC courts are corrupt and deep state because they filed charges against Trump. They have no values or principals. If it benefits their side its good and if it doesn't its fake and jewish.
>>
>>1354952
apologize for what? trump did nothing wrong
>>1354961
GOP literally held the senate in 2018, won the house in 2020 and held the house while winning the house popular vote in 2022.
all dems have done in that time is ban abortion, allow more illegals per year than any other year, bring in more third worlders than ever via "refugee" status and TPS and caused hyper inflation

trump did nothing wrong and NYC has always been corrupt. see tammany hall, but I guess they don't teach US history in your country. adams only got caught because the dems never wanted him, see how they rigged the mayoral race before getting caught
>>
>>1354970
>trump did nothing wrong
Well, he did, you just don't care. The MAGA retard formula is "Trump did nothing wrong but if he did it isn't a big deal."

>and NYC has always been corrupt
>adams only got caught because the dems never wanted him, see how they rigged the mayoral race before getting caught
Thanks for illustrating the hypocrisy perfect. NYC courts are corrupt because they prosecuted Trump but also they're not corrupt because they prosecuted Adams and all of those charges are good and based but Trump's charges are fake and jewish. You've constructed a world in which you can never be wrong.

>>1354968
>GOP literally held the senate in 2018
They lost the house and they lost the popular vote in the seante in 2018

>won the house in 2020
>and held the house while winning the house popular vote in 2022.
They underperformed by every metric, failed to take back the senate, flubbed the two runoffs in Georgia, a traditionally conservative state, and lost the white house with an incumbent presidency. Absolute failures.


>all dems have done in that time is ban abortion, allow more illegals per year than any other year, bring in more third worlders than ever via "refugee" status and TPS and caused hyper inflation
Dems passed the inflation reduction act (which reduced inflation), the infrastructure package, child tax credit, insulin price reductions and the largest economic recovery package in U.S. history. Trump passed tax cuts in the form of deficit spending and failed at all of his other promises - 0 immigration reform, 0 replacement of Obamacare, 0 wall that Mexico paid for. He was a failure in every sense of the word.
>>
>>1354975
>Well, he did, you just don't care.
he didn't. NYC had to make shit up and violated the law by waiting until closing arguments to tell him what law he was accused of breaking because otherwise they wouldn't have gotten a conviction, and NYC isn't part of the US
>Thanks for illustrating the hypocrisy perfect.
even the news reported all the corrupt shit adams did. the dems never wanted adams, they got caught rigging the primary
https://apnews.com/article/eric-adams-lead-shrinks-nyc-democratic-mayor-primary-0c92450b5dbb57018e2f8e15d8471a97
maybe adams did something, maybe he didn't, but the reason he is getting taken to court was because the political machine never wanted him
>They lost the house and they lost the popular vote in the seante in 2018
they still held the senate. also the popular vote doesn't mean much when illegals vote in california
>They underperformed b
doesn't matter. even with the dems, china, israel and the media cheating the GOP won the house in 2020 and 2022 and prevented brandon from putting his dogshit evil policies into law.
>Dems passed the inflation reduction act (which reduced inflation),
no it fucking didn't. it incased inflation and taxed people heating their homes and gave money to china
>the infrastructure package, child tax credit, insulin price reductions and the largest economic recovery package in U.S. history.
literally all of these things increased inflation and sent the money directly into the pockets of the 1% and china.
>Trump passed tax cuts
2/3rds of Americans got their taxes cut by trump
>in the form of deficit spending
tax cuts don't cause a deficit, retard. spending does. you just deep thoated brandon for deficit spending like a drunk sailor. no federal income tax cut has ever lead to a long term drop in federal revenue.
>and failed at all of his other promises
a. blame the dems for shutting down the government.
b. are you a fucking retard? he gave us bruen and dobbs. promises made, promises kept

Populism =/= fascism. Medical-pharma complex is the #1 lobbying group in the US, and they're in full support of transitioning children, because it makes money for the psychologist, psychiatrist, surgeon, pharmaceutical industry, hospital executives, etc. Because fascism is the merger of state and corporate power, actual fascists wouldn't find themselves opposing the biggest corporate lobbying group.
