GOP Congresswoman snaps at conservative who accused her of supporting trans people by wearing a tux

An example of the GQP eating their own. I wonder if there was an attempt at using the bathroom.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) is not a supporter of LGBTQ+ equality. She campaigned on transphobic lies to get her seat in the past two elections, she regularly posts anti-trans equality messages to social media, and she scored just 17 out of 100 on HRC’s Congressional Scorecard.

But that’s not enough for one of her supporters who accused her of supporting transgender people because she wore a tuxedo to last weekend’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner. And while it was just one person making the comment on Twitter, Mace’s outsized reaction shows that the rightwing troll may have struck a nerve.

“Further, as our culture continues to undermine women by celebrating men who pretend to be them – why would you choose to wear a tux to the WHCD?” asked Randan Steinhauser, a self-described “Counter-Cultural Christian Conservative WOMAN,” according to her Twitter bio.

Eve was the first transgender - by creation.

For the Bible folks:::

Eve was the first transgender. Originally 100% male.

God was OK with it.

1) They love hating others (ironic, isn't it Jesus?)
2) People who change sex are icky.

Isn't organized religion grand?

I grew up in the Episcopal Church, went to various other, "born again", after that, went back to Episcopal Church. The exclusion is more important in born again then inclusion.
I am so sorry for what all my LGBTQ friends are going through.

Stay safe and VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!
