    Trump’s sudden obsession with transgender issue came out of nowhere but I have a theory. I think that he tried to sexually assault a woman during the campaign and when he grabbed her crotch he got a handful of penis.

      It didn’t come out of nowhere and it isn’t surprising. It’s part of the fascist playbook to demonize that which they cannot subordinate to their cult of machismo and their fairytale of a golden past.

      OMG, that’s literately the subplot of Too Wong Foo. A cop attempted to sexual assault one of the protagonists, who was a drag queen, and he goes on a search to arrest them after they fought back.

      Nah he just realized they’re a great target to attract a big crowd of bigots behind him. Once they’ve been dealt with he’ll move on to another group to bully, maybe the rest of the LGBTQ crowd.
