Acceptance of Lesbian and Gay people is more widespread, and Bisexual people are usually erased into one of those two groups, or seen as straight. So fighting that is unpopular and a losing issue. But Transgender acceptance is at an all-time low in the last decade according to recent polls. Among the general American population, 79% support the ban of Transgender women in sports, 71% support banning puberty blockers for Transgender minors, 49% think Transgender acceptance has gone too far, with only 21% thinking that Transgender acceptance needs to go further. GOP propaganda and DNC failure has successfully made the general American public drop the T from LGBT. It’s seen as a seperate issue, and unfortunately Trump’s policies here, just like with deporting illegal immigrants, enjoy wide popular support. It’s also part of why the liberal resistance to them has been so pathetic so far even when compared to 2016, because there’s one to resist among the general public. Most people support this.

In short, we are fucked. Really badly.
DNC failure implies they were trying to push back. As always, the republicans crank up the fascism and democrats “follow the law”
If they’ll force us through the wrong puberty there’s nothing they wouldn’t do.
