I don't think that's a fair interpretation of what people have said. There was no major movement for trans people to not support Kamala over Trump due to trans issues. Instead, trans people have been one of if not the most reliable groups of Democratic voters. And trans people make massively disproportionate contributions to Democratic campaigns and canvassing. Go to any left of center protest or rally, and you will find trans folks there massively disproportionate to our share of the population. We've been reliably voting Democrat for years, and we've been rewarded for it with fair-weather allies willing to compromise our rights, knowing we'll "vote blue no matter who" as both sides chip away at our rights and dignity.

And you don't need to imagine how it could get worse. I already told you how it could get worse. It could get worse if both parties were vehemently anti-trans. Currently there aren't enough votes in the Senate to pass major anti-trans legislation at the federal level. The moment even 20% of Democratic legislators turn anti-trans, suddenly the New Jim Crow laws being passed in Republican states will be passed at the national level. We'll have national New Jim Crow laws, not just state-level ones.

You need to appreciate the magnitude of what's at stake here. 20% of the entire US trans population has been force to flee their homes due to the New Jim Crow laws passed by Republicans at the state level. I myself had to become and internally displaced refugee due to this. I had to flee my home to escape this. The US is currently dealing with its largest internal refugee crisis since the Great Depression, and the largest one based on legal persecution since the Great Migration. At least currently trans people can flee to blue states. If even 20% of federal Democratic legislators become anti-trans, that legislation will be passed at the federal level. That is the real threat. And I'm willing to see Democrats lose a race to prevent that outcome.
