Trump highlights anti-transgender stance in final campaign push

Donald Trump has made opposition to transgender rights a key focus of his campaign as Election Day approaches. He has used derogatory language and misleading claims to portray transgender individuals as a threat, spending millions on ads attacking Vice President Kamala Harris for her support of transgender rights. At rallies, Trump features a spoof video mocking transgender people and their military service, which elicits strong reactions from his supporters. His running mate, JD Vance, has also made controversial comments about transgender identity and college admissions, further fueling the campaign's anti-trans messaging. Polling shows a divided public on transgender issues, with many opposing bans on medical treatments for transgender individuals while also supporting restrictions on transgender athletes in sports. Civil rights advocates express concern over the potential impact of a second Trump administration on LGBTQ rights.
