Why I sit OK when income inequality obviously got worse under Obama, but it's terrible when it happens under Trump?
Democrats have had income inequality as an issue since I can remember. Recently, hell, remember the Occupy Movement? While not a mainstream Dem thing at it's heart was income inequality.

As to transgenders in the ladies room...you don't think predators would ever resort to lying, to gain access to their victims? They wouldn't sink that low?
A sexual predator can today dress up as a woman and go into the ladies room, yet, it's a extremely rare occurrence. I'd be much more concerned with someone who not only identifies as a woman -- but looks like a woman -- being forced to use the men's room.

Occupy Wall Street is a pretty good point, thought I'd argue that at t's heart was feral anarchy and envy. But a good point is a good point.

" it's a extremely rare occurrence"

Fortunately, you are again correct, it's rare. But your side made it easier, to appease a very small percentage of the population. I want true transgender people to feel secure everywhere they go, I really do, but it can't always be at the expense of everyone else.
