Donald Trump’s presidential campaign has come under fire for its latest advert attacking Kamala Harris’ pro-trans views, once again parroting the former commander-in-chief’s claim that the Democratic nominee is funding gender-affirming surgeries for “illegal aliens”.
The advert was posted on Trump’s social media channels on Friday (20 September), repeating his claims that Harris supports taxpayer-funded gender-affirming care for prisoners and undocumented immigrants.
The ad, branded “trans panic” by social media users, ends with the tagline: “Kamala is for they/them. President Trump is for you.”
GLAAD president and chief executive Sarah Kate Ellis responded by telling The Advocate: "This reeks of desperation… [voters have] "repeatedly rejected candidates who target transgender people and have strongly stated that they want extremists out of our doctors’ offices and private lives.

Honestly I feel it’s even more likely he’s elected this time. The “Hillary hands down” polls were so much wider than any I’m seeing. Unless polling has gotten considerably more accurate, there are going to be a lot of sad and shocked people out there days after the election.
I truly hope my feelings are unjustified but the nation is in big fuckin trouble.
Polls were closer in 2020. Polls also don’t mean shit. Voting does
I think back in 2016 a lot of his supporters didn’t feel comfortable telling people they wanted to vote for him, even with anonymous polls. Trump supporters are much more open and vocal now.
