    Children being transgender is a far more complex issue than anyone in the comments or any politician can decide. How do kids know for sure that they’re transgender? We don’t allow kids to do many things until they’re 18 or 21 so how is something as complex as their own gender identity okay to be left in their hands at such a young age? Especially with the very real danger of gender dysphoria?
    I wish people would discuss this more rather than just taking sides.

    is “transgender children” a new thing? or were there children in the past that adults would have sexualized and pushed towards being trans?

    The Democrats don’t have absolutely anything to offer the American people, except for racism and bigotry.

    Beto is far better than Abbott for freedoms, economics, and plain decency.

    I truly hope Texas voters do the sane thing and vote overwhelmingly for Beto in November. If they don’t, Abbott will continue his dictatorial ways and destroy the freedoms that Texans have enjoyed.

    Wow! Beto is so down to earth, honest, sincere and empathetic. I have just one question. Could he be cloned to run in every state? America needs more just like him.

    Like Pete Buttigieg, Beta will make an amazing President. I hope it can happen in my lifetime, and there is not much time left.
