Sarah McBride is an embarrassment to Delaware and all transgender Americans. Have a spine, lady.

"I’m not here to fight about bathrooms. I’m here to fight for Delawareans and to bring down costs facing families," she said.
Some real fucking solidarity going on here if you ask me /s

That quote was in response to Nancy mace banning Sarah from the woman’s bathroom iirc

She's playing a traditional face tactic well. The strategy is to force them to look at you and do it to your face if they're going to be bigoted and to endure it without aggression. It's similar to a sit in but in congress.
Ultimately the goal is to display to moderates and the undecided the cruelty of the bigoted (who often present themselves as a face of "normalcy") and the humanity of those who they target. After years of viral videos acting like all trans people lose our shit when even accidentally misgendered, here is one just fucking taking it while refusing to be bullied out of congress. And so rather than allowing opponents to say she makes everything about trans issues, those who run against the people being cruel to her can say that.
