Sarah McBride is a class act. No one would ever say that about the nasty MAGA crowd whose motto is “Make America Cruel Again.”

I worked with a trans person at my last job. Unless they told you they were trans, you would never know it. They have just transformed into the person they truly are.

Dear Jean in Florida, I agree with you wholeheartedly! My niece and I are taking glassblowing lessons at a local studio. Our favorite instructor is a trans woman, and we love her! She is always kind and patient and helps us be our most creative and successful selves. Just as Sarah McBride's being trans does not have anything to do with the class act she is, our instructor's gender has nothing to do with her skills as a professional glassblower or her generosity in helping others learn the craft. I just wish the media-hog Mace and her MAGA friends could understand what a simple truth that is.

Thank you for the links. Both are excellent. The Trump creeps are beyond belief. Cruel busybodies. Monica Guzman of Braver Angels has a very beautiful utube with a transgender author. You can find it at BraverAngels.org.

Nance Mace displays a cruelty that is reprehensible. I wrote an email to her, calling her out for her despicable behavior.

If Sarah McBride didn’t say she was trans, she’d be using the women’s restroom and no one would even know. How many other trans women quietly use the ladies room without any fuss?

When we were kids and told off-color jokes my dad would intone, "Not funny. Not funny. Bathroom talk." I don't get the drama. Let people be. Then again, these are folks who willingly elected a felon, rapist, fraudster, and bullying abuser...

You are right: MACA, not MAGA
