I’m going to strongly disagree that Harris’ campaign overly focused on identity politics and specifically trans rights and that was the reason they lost the election.
IF the party’s support for trans rights was the reason they lost, it would be because the Trump campaign (et. al.) was talking about it, not the Harris campaign.
I could be wrong, I didnt watch every stump speech or somehow missed the party’s focus for trans rights in every speech I did watch. Feel free to correct me.
