Donald Trump has intensified his opposition to transgender rights in the lead-up to Election Day, using derogatory language and misrepresentations to portray a small segment of the U.S. population as a threat to national identity. His campaign and affiliated political action committees have spent significant sums on ads attacking Vice President Kamala Harris for her past support of transgender rights.
Trump's recent rally speeches have featured a spoof video mocking transgender individuals in the military, drawing disapproval from his supporters. He has made false claims about female athletes and ridiculed transgender individuals, garnering applause from his audience.
