That's an exaggeration but no question, were I an American I'd vote
for anybody BUT Biden solely on the basis of that.
I have no particular problem with him setting such a day on any other
day but to do it on the highest high holy day on the Christian
calendar shows a level of insensitivity unworthy of any candidate for
high office. I wouldn't do it on Yom Kippur or Eid either.
And to do it in an election year even marks it as either just plain
stupidity OR an allegiance to an agenda that is completely out of
touch with his nation.
If you want to be president you simply have to avoid unforced errors
like that. Moral of the story is this move was either highly stupid or
highly evil and I for one wouldn't want a president who was either.
Somehow I don't see Eisenhower, Kennedy Johnson or even Nixon doing
that!
Now let's be clear I'm NOT a fan of his GOP competition either so I
would guess there are at least 50 million Americans who in 7 months
time will go to the ballot box wishing either party had nominated most >>>anybody<< else.

For fuck's sake, that is possibly THE stupidest thing I've ever heard

The Transgender Day has been on March 31 since it was started.

March 31 was set as transgender day long before Biden was president.
Set by whom?
It was created in 2009 by transgender activist Rachel Crandall Crocker
of Michigan. It's an observance day, much like Mother's Day,
Grandparent's day, etc.
Or he's not playing politics with the subject by attempting to move
the celebration to another day. Not that he could move the day since
it isn't a national holiday but one that was setup by a trans advocate
and appears to be supported by GLADD. (At least as far as I know
there's no federal support for the day other than recognizing it
exists.)
Then you would be as foolish as the MAGA faithful I see making a fuss
over this. The day has always been celebrated on March 31st.
But Biden didn't have to celebrate it.
He had a choice between pissing off 50% of the population in an election
year vs. pissing off 0.02% of the population in an election year
But now you blame fucking BIDEN when it falls on
March 31, 2024?
Are you insane?

Okay, so why does the president feel the need to celebrate this day in
the first place, let alone on a year when it falls on Easter and is
likely to enrage half the country? Because Rachel Crandall Crocker says
so?

I think he just wanted to recognize one of the groups that observe this
day. BTW, it was also Cesar Chavez day, bunsen burner day, Eiffel Tower
day, crayon day, national farm workers day, national back up day, and
many more. Should he have mentioned any of them instead?

over this. The day has always
been celebrated on March 31st. It just
so happens that this year Easter Sunday also happens to be on March
31st. So it isn't like Biden or anyone else was doing something
against Christianity.
I have no particular problem with him setting such a day on any other
day but to do it on the highest high holy day on the Christian
calendar shows a level of insensitivity unworthy of any candidate for
high office. I wouldn't do it on Yom Kippur or Eid either.
I wonder what Jesus would say about the intolerance being exposed
here. Sure seems to go against some of the tenets of Christianity to
me.
And to do it in an election year even marks it as either just plain >stupidity OR an allegiance to an agenda that is completely out of
touch with his nation.
Or he's not playing politics with the subject by attempting to move
the celebration to another day. Not that he could move the day since
it isn't a national holiday but one that was setup by a trans advocate
and appears to be supported by GLADD. (At least as far as I know
there's no federal support for the day other than recognizing it
exists.)
If you want to be president you simply have to avoid unforced errors
like that. Moral of the story is this move was either highly stupid
or highly evil and I for one wouldn't want a president who was
either.
Somehow I don't see Eisenhower, Kennedy Johnson or even Nixon doing
that!
Now let's be clear I'm NOT a fan of his GOP competition either so I
would guess there are at least 50 million Americans who in 7 months
time will go to the ballot box wishing either party had nominated
most
anybody<< else.

Depends on what you mean by 'accepting'. If it means not caring if a
dude wants to wear a dress everywhere he goes, then I'm already
there. Couldn't care less.
If it means forcing me-- increasingly under penalty of criminal law--
to actively participate in his delusions and to not only allow, but celebrate, dudes in dresses taking over womens' sports and wagging
their bits in the faces of real women and young girls in showers and
locker rooms, then Biden can fuck right the hell off. There's nothing "unChristian" about objecting to that. (As if I cared what is and is
not "unChristian" in the first place, being an atheist and all.)
And since when are "gay" and "trans" capitalized? They're not proper

Okay, so why does the president feel the need to celebrate this day in
the first place, let alone on a year when it falls on Easter and is
likely to enrage half the country? Because Rachel Crandall Crocker says
so?
Maybe Rachel Crandall Crocker wanted Republicans to have a bad day...
And if that's the reason, all of the criticism Biden is receiving is justified.

day, crayon day, national farm workers day, national back up day, and
many more. Should he have mentioned any of them instead?
Any one or all of them would have been a better political and public relations choice that National Troon Day.

To the extent you're right at all I agree I'm unsympathetic to the
idea of allowing biological males into womens' private spaces like
restrooms and change rooms.
I tend to ONLY consider what their bodies
actually are rather than their affinity for a gender - i.e my view is
that a man who is transitioning to womanhood hasn't done so as long as
he's got a penis. There are enough women out there (far too many
actually) who have had problems with sexual molestation or harassment
that they deserve private spaces and thus I reject the idea that a
'woman' can have a penis because to me that means they haven't
transitioned yet.
But that it is NOT true that merely saying you're now a woman makes
you one.
I don't mind there being a "Trans Visibility Day" but when it comes to
having the President of the United States supporting it - I have to
ask him "would you publicly support it on 4 July? If so why? If not
why not?"
Because the way he did it WAS a gratuitous insult and if he's ok with
that and willing to pay the price for it then so be it.
And if you REALLY want me to flame you say I'm a MAGA type since you
couldn't be more wrong.

I see it as the same way people see the bible. They get out of it

Sadly I always thought the most important message coming out of the

Okay, so why does the president feel the need to celebrate this day in
the first place, let alone on a year when it falls on Easter and is
likely to enrage half the country? Because Rachel Crandall Crocker says
so?
day. BTW, it was also Cesar Chavez day, bunsen burner day, Eiffel Tower
day, crayon day, national farm workers day, national back up day, and
many more. Should he have mentioned any of them instead?
Any one or all of them would have been a better political and public relations choice that National Troon Day.

I don't see it as an insult as I can't see Trans people as being an
insult to Christians. To me one of the main components of Christianity
is an acceptance of others including Trans and gay people. So given
that the day was always on the 31st of March since it was first
created that it was on Easter Sunday this year wasn't an affront to >Christians and Biden just recognizing the worth of Trans people and
their value to their communities doesn't appear to be any sort of
affront to Christianity.

Go ahead and flame me if that makes you feel better as it's all just

He's being criticized because the Church chose it as Easter.
He's only being criticized for the same reason you guys want to impeach

Aaah... so you don't like Biden because he didn't discriminate against
who you wanted him to?
And that wasn't your original point. Your point was because it fell on >Easter... you're moving the goalposts in order to be outraged now.
You can't pin it on him for picking the same day as Easter, so you've

Biden didn't pick the day Easter fell on this year.
The church could have picked a date certain, like they do for
Christmas... but they NEED Easter Sunday and Good Friday to fall on a
certain day of the week.
Biden celebrated the day on the day it's celebrated. It's pretty basic.

There's a case coming to court in Canada (which has what Americans
would call "socialized medicine") where the state-run medical system
will pay for trans surgery under specific circumstances where the
plaintiff is seeking state payment for a version of trans surgery
where an artificial vagina is to be created while retaining the penis.

The Easter Holiday is the holiest of the entire year. Way more

Which goes back far further than TVD has been around - the formula is
well known and is routinely done 20-30 years in advance and I'm quite
sure you'd have no problem finding the dates through 2050 online in
fairly short order.
He's only being criticized for the same reason you guys want to impeach

No he's being criticized for emphasizing something minor and ignoring
something major which is egregiously dumb for a politician
particularly in an election year.
I'm not one of those who supports impeachment which I feel has been
invoked far too often in recent years. It's particularly silly to
pursue in an election year when from his point of view preparing the
face the people should be his main priority.
Nope. Impeachment is for high crimes like treason and bribery and other misdemeanors.
Trump was impeached because he was committing impeachable offenses ,
pure and simple. He was extorting a country to get dirt on a political opponent.
He was impeached for leading an insurrection, and trying to overthrow
the government.
Neither was unwarranted, nor too far. It's exactly what impeachment was designed for. For the first time in our history, Trump got members of
his own party to vote to remove him in the Senate.
That never happened before. SEVEN voted to convict Trump... another first. They weren't being partisan - the opposite in fact.
