"In a presidency defined by perpetual attention - meetings bleeding into photo ops, policy announcements collapsing into monologue - few refrains have proved as durable for President Donald Trump as the line "transgender for everybody." It arrives in his remarks like a reflex, surfacing in moments where it has no organic relevance, signaling not policy precision but the durability of a grievance."
"The Advocate contacted the White House to ask what Trump means when he uses the phrase. "President Trump was resoundingly elected by the American people to restore common sense in our government - and that includes dropping Democrats' bizarre obsession with transgenderism," White House spokesperson Kush Desai said. "From cracking down on unscientific transgender procedures for minors to protecting girls' sports, the Trump administration will continue to put an end to transgender-for-everybody policies.""
Donald Trump frequently utters the phrase 'transgender for everybody' in unrelated contexts to signal a cultural grievance and to alarm about transgender people. GLAAD recorded the phrase more than fifty times since January, often in responses unrelated to LGBTQ+ issues. The White House links those remarks to a platform of reversing perceived Democratic policies and to actions such as restricting transgender medical procedures for minors and protecting girls' sports. On Day One of his second administration, Trump signed an executive order redefining federal civil rights interpretation to recognize only two sexes, reshaping agency rules, data collection, and nondiscrimination protections.
