McBride emphasized, "It is a testament to Delawarians that the candidacy of someone like me is even possible. My priorities are going to be affordable child care, paid family and medical leave, housing, health care, reproductive freedom." This highlights her commitment to key issues beyond her identity as a trans woman.
McBride stated, "We know throughout history that the power of proximity has opened even the most-closed of hearts and minds. And I still believe that the power of proximity taps the most fundamental human emotion: empathy." This reflects her belief in the importance of shared experiences in fostering understanding.
Reflecting on her potential win, McBride said, "If I win, I wouldn't be the first person in Congress to be part of a community that Donald Trump has said outrageous things about." This comments on the context and challenges faced by marginalized groups.
A recent study found that politicians who use anti-trans rhetoric as part of their election campaigns are more likely to lose at the polls than those who don't vent hate. This indicates a shift in public sentiment against discriminatory rhetoric.
