Trump's First Term Was Bad for Trans People. His Next Term Promises to Be Worse.
Briefly

Trump's 2024 campaign ads addressing trans issues reflect a deliberate strategy to target and scapegoat trans individuals, utilizing anti-LGBTQ rhetoric to galvanize support.
The development of Trump's anti-trans sensibilities from 2016 to the present shows his alignment with socially conservative activist groups, using trans individuals as scapegoats for their agendas.
During his first term, Trump enacted policies restricting healthcare, job, and housing protections for trans individuals, reflecting a significant departure from earlier positions and indicating a deeper alliance with far-right ideologies.
As part of Trump's platform in his second term, he has pledged aggressive actions against trans youth and educators, promising investigations and potential defunding of schools promoting LGBTQ acceptance.
